I am removing the section about San Fernando Rey (Fernando III) because:
1. It is off-topic for this article. It would be appropriate to mention Fernando III to the degree that it relates to the region (for instance, it would be interesting to know who named the parish after him), but not to create an entire section about him.
2. It definitely violates
NPOV.
Perhaps some portions of this could be salvaged for the Fernando III article, but in that case it should be sourced.
The text of the section I am removing follows. Ariah 15:59, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
Fernando was the King of Spain in his time. He reached sanctity, and most of all, sanctified his own function as King. He a man of the Royal court, a hunter, an equestrian, an excellent sportsman, lover of the arts, a good soldier, and an expert in public relations and in the administration of justice. But above all, he declared himself a “Gentleman of Christ”, a lamb of Mary and a slave of St. James for which the Pope recognized and classified as an “Athlete of Christ” and “Champion for Christ”.
He was natural and pertinent, putting this pertinence in a plain and simple consecration of service to his country without any reservation for himself. “He never knew vice or hate”, says his son Alfonso X the Wise. To find the power to combat sin, he would steal time at night to commune in prayer with God, in adoration of the Eucharist and the Virgin Mary. He always carried with him an image of the “The Virgin of Battles (Virgin de las Batallas) taking the Place of Honor in the Army of Seville - a position intended for a King. Up to this day, the image is kept in Seville. King Fernando - “Defender of the Church and of the Earth” - exchanged his crown with that of the saints in heaven, asking forgiveness for those who lived in sin. His uncorrupted body now lies in the cathedral of Seville, the biggest in Spain and one of the many edifices he constructed in thanksgiving for all the battles won as a Crusader against the moors.
Only two municipalities have the term "Liloan", yet it has its own disambiguation page; it's treated like there are hundreds of places named "Liloan" (and if there are, they're just barangay names that aren't that important). Why not just redirect the term "Liloan" to this locality, which by the way, is growing rapidly fast; it has more than 3x the population of the town from Southern Leyte with the same name. It's like " Tampa", where searching this term redirects to a page named "Tampa, Florida", or " Fort Worth" which redirects to a page named "Fort Worth, Texas". For me, I think this will make the readers less confused because when they mean "Liloan", they only mean the "Liloan" in their locality, which in this case, is Cebu. Conversely, if I was in Southern Leyte, "Liloan" would mean the town in that province, not in Cebu. Bugnawfang ( talk) 14:35, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
