Hello, I am the reviewer of your other article 'History of Filipino's in America' after noticing this article, I believe the two should be combined. Some notes though for this article in any case:
In light of the above, I do not think the article will meet the criteria without substantial edits. BlackfullaLinguist ( talk) 10:29, 1 August 2019 (UTC)
Hi RightCowLeftCoast, I'll assess this one. It looks interesting. Give me a couple of days. Gog the Mild ( talk) 16:47, 30 October 2019 (UTC)
I have made a few copy edits which you will want to check. I have been on the bold side, so please flag up anything you don't like or don't understand.
More to follow. Gog the Mild ( talk) 20:55, 31 October 2019 (UTC)|3=alt
That's all I have. A fascinating, well written and well researched article. Gog the Mild ( talk) 04:39, 1 November 2019 (UTC)
No, with tidying up those trivial issues you have met all of the criteria. As I wrote above, a fascinating, well written and well researched article. Well done. Gog the Mild ( talk) 12:22, 26 November 2019 (UTC)

The language used makes it seem as if the Filipinos were on their own ships, which they weren’t. The Filipinos didn’t land, the Novohispanic/Spanish ships landed. My move was reverted, citing “the language used on the plaque”. The language used on the plaque also states “Luzon Indios”, but that isn’t used in this article name either. Somehow, it became “Filipinos”, when that term wasn’t used for the native population during that time.
It is more precise to change the name of the article to “First documented arrival of Filipinos to the Americas”. Many were brought against their will as slaves, and they did not stay there, they visited it. CMD007 ( talk) 03:35, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
If you start typing in “Landing of…” you’ll see a couple articles pop up and underneath “Landing of the first Filipinos” you’ll see it has a second header which reads “Arrival of Filipinos to the current United States in 1587”… WHY? Why would it need a second explanation if we could just put the explanation in the FIRST place. Other articles about “first arrivals” which is a category to which this page belongs, has specifics… “First Africans in Virginia”. Where are these Filipinos landing? Britain? Australia? The title does not provide any context, contrary to what you are saying. It doesn’t tell who landed the ship, it doesn’t tell where they landed, nonsense. CMD007 ( talk) 07:58, 25 May 2023 (UTC) Also, that source that mentions the pilgrims is not at all reliable. They said it was “nearly a century earlier”?? 33 years is NOT equal to a century. Laughable. Back to reality, What is the argument against using the second header as the actual name page? It’s good enough to be a second header, why not just use it as the name page? What is your argument against “Arrival of the first Filipinos in the Americas”? Are you trying to be non concise? CMD007 ( talk) 08:02, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
