Treaty of Manila (1946)signed, Rosguilltalk20:53, 8 April 2020 (UTC)reply
Redirect to
Treaty of Manila (1946). That was the origincal redirect. The Treaty of Manila is the treaty that gave the Philippines its internationally recognized independence in 1946.
Independence Day (Philippines) refers to June 12, 1898, when Philippine Revolutionaries declared the Philippines independent. They failed. The Philippines was ruled by the U.S. for nearly 50 years. In common parlance and in international law the Philippines gained its Independence in 1946. This redirect says "Philippine independence" and should point to when the country actually became independent, when it gained its sovereignty, when it fully ruled itself. The redirect originally pointed to the Treaty of Manila article but was changed several years ago, over objections, several months after the concluded discussion on the Talk page ruled generally against the change (keeping Treaty of Manila). I and other editors didn't notice. Rather than change it back and risk (another)
WP:EDITWAR, I bring it here, as suggested years ago on
Talk:Philippine independence.--

Comment The difference is that the American Revolutionaries won whereas the Philippine Revolutionaries lost. In America, the declaration became reality. In America, those that declared independence achieved independence. In the Philippines, the declaration was not followed by independence but by American colonial rule. Independence did not come for the Philippines until 1946. This creates a disconnect between what is called Independence Day, which did not lead to independence, and the real independence nearly 50 years later. Naturally speaking, does "Philippine independence" refer to real independence or the day called Independence Day?--

I'm only saying a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC exists so a disambiguation page is unnecessary. Hatnotes can do all the work anyway. If people wanted to search the national independence holiday, the appropriate redirect is Independence Day (Philippines). But Philippine independence itself is overwhelmingly a June 12, 1898 event in people's memory, the day of the independence declaration. The
Philippine Centennial redirects to the correct article being the 100 years of Philippine independence. Last year, Google search paid tribute to 121 years of Philippine independence with a doodle. Again, theres nothing that a hatnote cant do. I know the history, but we are all just following what the average reader understands as Philippine independence and their likely search term for the June 12, 1898 event. Hatnotes.--

CommentI'm only saying that the
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is actual independence, when the Philippines began to govern itself. When you say "in people's memory", I am wondering "Which people?" Certainly not the people of America, or Europe, or Africa. A
WP:GLOBAL understanding of the
WP:COMMONNAME as well as the understanding of the phrase "the Philippines since independence" would naturally lead to 1946. Otherwise people not from the Philippines (and many in the Philippines) would be confused. The use of "independence day" as a name for June 12, 1898 is a term of art and an historical accident that is not understood by anyone who does not have a working knowledge of Philippine history. When people outside the Philippines are looking for information on "Philippine independence" they mean when the Philippines began its current period of self-rule, like what happened in other former colonies. --

The situation is not unique to the Philippines. Countries like
East Timor and
Vietnam also celebrate their independence declaration and not the dates they were granted by Indonesia and France respectively.
Estonia and
Georgia also recognize their pre-USSR sovereignty as their independence. So when the reliable sources mention xx years of Vietnam's or Timor's or Estonia's independence, we know which dates they are referring to, like in our case, the dates they recognize and celebrate. Those are featured annually by mainstream media.--

Disambiguate. This is tricky. There are actually 4 articles that can lay claim to be the target of the redirect and having 4 of these in hatnotes becomes too unwieldy. If we must have a target, my preference is for the first of these (the declaration event). —

Well,
my suggestion was to make it a
WP:SS article; however,
a rose, by any other name, .... The term Philippine independence seems to mean and to have meant different things to different people, and separate WP articles exist which detail and expound upon those different meanings. A number of separate WP articles concern separate declarations of independence by separate revolutionary organizations. Also, the term conceals an ambiguity between declaration of independence and achievement of independence. This is too messy, as you point out, for a disambiguation page.

One that discusses the evolution of different intellectual streams of thought in the country, the colonialist fights, the issues in context with broader world wars, and so on? I'm iffy on having any just one single event and/or document gone to here. I find myself interested in the previous comment's point.

The transposition is between the B and L adjacent letters. It's something that I occasionally do when one hand is too fast to hit its key before the other hand hits its intended key. So it's possible to type the 'b' before the 'l' by accident. On the other hand, I really don't think we ought to be making redirects to cover every possible transposition of adjacent letters, otherwise we'd have alubm and albmu to deal with. I'd be inclined to let the search function deal with transpositions and get rid of the redirects, but it's not a big deal. --

Delete. The discussion linked by nom suggests a mistranslation from German or Russian, and I agree. A Google search for the unusual-looking word "capacivity" (which looks like a cross between capacitance, capacity and conductivity) left me none the wiser. A search for "magnetic capacivity" turned up stray references equating it to either
permeance or
permittivity (which are different things). I didn't find the 1913 Arkadiew paper cited in
Gyrator–capacitor model; but did find
this 1921 paper by the same author. It uses the expression magnetische Fähigkeit, which translates literally as "magnetic conductivity"; another odd-looking expression. However,
this citation defines magnetische Fähigkeit as a synonym of magnetische Permeabilität, "magnetic permeability". Cutting to the chase: no
WP:RS source uses the expression "magnetic capacivity", it's an obscure and unlikely search term of unclear meaning, and we would be better off without it.

Independence did not come for the Philippines until 1946. This creates a disconnect between what is called Independence Day, which did not lead to independence, and the real independence nearly 50 years later. Naturally speaking, does "Philippine independence" refer to real independence or the day called Independence Day?--

I'm only saying a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC exists so a disambiguation page is unnecessary. Hatnotes can do all the work anyway. If people wanted to search the national independence holiday, the appropriate redirect is Independence Day (Philippines). But Philippine independence itself is overwhelmingly a June 12, 1898 event in people's memory, the day of the independence declaration. The
Philippine Centennial redirects to the correct article being the 100 years of Philippine independence. Last year, Google search paid tribute to 121 years of Philippine independence with a doodle. Again, theres nothing that a hatnote cant do. I know the history, but we are all just following what the average reader understands as Philippine independence and their likely search term for the June 12, 1898 event. Hatnotes.--

CommentI'm only saying that the
WP:PRIMARYTOPIC is actual independence, when the Philippines began to govern itself. When you say "in people's memory", I am wondering "Which people?" Certainly not the people of America, or Europe, or Africa. A
WP:GLOBAL understanding of the
WP:COMMONNAME as well as the understanding of the phrase "the Philippines since independence" would naturally lead to 1946. Otherwise people not from the Philippines (and many in the Philippines) would be confused. The use of "independence day" as a name for June 12, 1898 is a term of art and an historical accident that is not understood by anyone who does not have a working knowledge of Philippine history. When people outside the Philippines are looking for information on "Philippine independence" they mean when the Philippines began its current period of self-rule, like what happened in other former colonies. --

The situation is not unique to the Philippines. Countries like
East Timor and
Vietnam also celebrate their independence declaration and not the dates they were granted by Indonesia and France respectively.
Estonia and
Georgia also recognize their pre-USSR sovereignty as their independence. So when the reliable sources mention xx years of Vietnam's or Timor's or Estonia's independence, we know which dates they are referring to, like in our case, the dates they recognize and celebrate. Those are featured annually by mainstream media.--

Disambiguate. This is tricky. There are actually 4 articles that can lay claim to be the target of the redirect and having 4 of these in hatnotes becomes too unwieldy. If we must have a target, my preference is for the first of these (the declaration event). —

Well,
my suggestion was to make it a
WP:SS article; however,
a rose, by any other name, .... The term Philippine independence seems to mean and to have meant different things to different people, and separate WP articles exist which detail and expound upon those different meanings. A number of separate WP articles concern separate declarations of independence by separate revolutionary organizations. Also, the term conceals an ambiguity between declaration of independence and achievement of independence. This is too messy, as you point out, for a disambiguation page.

Comment - It's complicated. This appears, at first glance, to be something that somebody would type in expecting a general historical article. One that discusses the evolution of different intellectual streams of thought in the country, the colonialist fights, the issues in context with broader world wars, and so on? I'm iffy on having any just one single event and/or document gone to here. I find myself interested in the previous comment's point.

Weak Keep - The article existed at this title title for a month plus, hence I will cross into keep just barely. Otherwise – "the", being so generic, has little affinity as a typo (no more than any other "the", and I do not think a similiar redirect should be created for every title containing the word—in theory). —

Typical link, in Brown v. Board of Education: 'Many Southern white Americans viewed Brown v. Board of Education as "a day of catastrophe—a
Black Monday—a day something like Pearl Harbor."' The top entry in
Black Monday is a 1209 massacre in Dublin by the Irish of 500 English settlers, and the second is a day of bad weather in 1360 which killed men and horses. The parallels are not exact.

Implausible typo. I suppose that this would originate from capitalizing the 2 for an (at) symbol, but the (at) causes the title to take on a completely different meaning. Utopes(talk / cont)16:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)reply

D!NG was never referred to by this name, by the best of my knowledge. Stevens refers to the audience as "Ding Dongers" in
this episode, but that's the closest I could find. Redirect was created by a user who was recently topic banned from creating redirects.

Delete as an unused name branding, this would be confused with other terms as listed in
Ding Dong (disambiguation). They changed it to D!NG and D*NG, but the article places them next to each other. The actual channel does not call themselves DingDong with that stylization.

SONIC67814:57, 1 April 2020 (UTC)reply
The transposition is between the B and L adjacent letters. It's something that I occasionally do when one hand is too fast to hit its key before the other hand hits its intended key. So it's possible to type the 'b' before the 'l' by accident. On the other hand, I really don't think we ought to be making redirects to cover every possible transposition of adjacent letters, otherwise we'd have alubm and albmu to deal with. I'd be inclined to let the search function deal with transpositions and get rid of the redirects, but it's not a big deal. --

Delete. The discussion linked by nom suggests a mistranslation from German or Russian, and I agree. A Google search for the unusual-looking word "capacivity" (which looks like a cross between capacitance, capacity and conductivity) left me none the wiser. A search for "magnetic capacivity" turned up stray references equating it to either
permeance or
permittivity (which are different things). I didn't find the 1913 Arkadiew paper cited in
Gyrator–capacitor model; but did find
this 1921 paper by the same author. It uses the expression magnetische Fähigkeit, which translates literally as "magnetic conductivity"; another odd-looking expression. However,
this citation defines magnetische Fähigkeit as a synonym of magnetische Permeabilität, "magnetic permeability". Cutting to the chase: no
WP:RS source uses the expression "magnetic capacivity", it's an obscure and unlikely search term of unclear meaning, and we would be better off without it.
