Found this article on the recently created articles section. It seems to have undergone an AFD ( Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sherwin Meneses). Not really that familiar with Pinoy sports stuff so can someone take a look if this is speedy delete worthy? -- Lenticel ( talk) 02:22, 9 July 2022 (UTC)

There are still some congressional districts that are not created (the new ones). The next stage is categorizing congressmen. As always, we can follow what the US did. See for example, Category:Members of the United States House of Representatives from Alabama, where it is subcategorized to per party (but not per district). As our politicians party-switch all the time, I think such Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines from Abra (province) should be the last categorization unless a lower-level LGU has its own district, whether defunct or current. (For example, Rizal and Antipolo).
As for party-list reps, they should be categorized per party, and not per LGU: an example is Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines for Akbayan. If someone can trace where the politician is from, Category:Politicians from Foo can be added.
There is a little issue though. Prior to the cityhood of the Metro Manila LGUs, some are arbitrarily combined with each other, the sole remnant of that is Taguig-1st and Pateros. You could create a category per district Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines from Taguig–Pateros–Muntinlupa, or use three categories for Rene Cayetano, one each for Taguig, Pateros and Muntinlupa... or two for Taguig-Pateros and Muntinlupa?

There has been inconsistencies when it comes to listing Filipino politician names. It would be better if there is some consensus about this.
The names tend to be presented as:
I think to make things simple we should rather go with the article name of the political figure's Wikipedia article if it exist or go for the concise version of their name if there is none.
The only issue is using nicknames (not just concise version of legal names) in the infobox such as using "Bong Go" on his infobox. Especially there is a trend of including honorifics in these people's infobox (e.g. Honorable Bong Go)

"Ma." is a common abbreviated form for "Maria" for Filipino names. My edit on Christina Frasco was reverted back to "Ma. Esperanza" from "Maria Esperanza" on the grounds that its her legal name. The question is should we be be spelling it? I am pretty confident that this abbreviation is a Philippine-only phenomenon. MOS:INITIALS may apply? An alternate is to retain "Ma." in the lead add a hatnote and succeeding instances should spell out "Maria"? But I think its less controversial for people with a WP:COMMONNAME with "Maria" in their name, even if their legal name shorthand that part of their name to "Ma." since a good amount of WP:RS will tend to spell out the name. Laying it out here for wider consensus and not just in the Christina Frasco article. Also pinging @ Jollibinay: who disputed my edit on said article for input/feedback.

Hi! I'm currently doing research to expand the article and there are two concerns I want to seek clarification on:
Firstly, the way I wrote much of the contemporary era of the History section seems mostly oriented towards developments of bike lanes being opened, establishments offering bike parking, or the LRT/MRT allowing foldable bikes onboard. I feel like this might come to a point where it might violate WP:INDISCRIMINATE, especially if in case such developments aren't really too notable, so I would like to ask if it's appropriate to write about such developments in the history section. What other aspects do you think I should focus on?
Secondly, I feel like the Bicycle use and ownership section, which mainly just explains or transcribes the Social Weather Stations surveys on bicycle use and ownership could be laid out in a more comprehensive way. Should I shorten it and try to explain it through a chart or graph instead?
Any other feedback is well appreciated. Thanks! Ganmatthew ( talk • contribs) 07:16, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
Please can a knowledgeable editor take a look at recent extensive additions to Florentino Floro? Thanks, Certes ( talk) 11:08, 5 August 2022 (UTC)
I've noticed that several edits in the last few months have been trying to change the article's lead section to label SMNI as a "far-right free-to-air news television network". It somewhat reflects a similar case to when multiple editors were trying to remove the "Marcos is a dictator and kleptocrat" line from the lead sections of Ferdinand Marcos, Bongbong Marcos, and other Marcos pages, which some were arguing either "turns off readers from reading further" or portrays an issue with WP:NPOV. Conversely, those who were affirming to keep the line argued that it is backed up by sources.
The far-right claim on the SMNI article, however, has only been supported so far by Rappler's investigative articles and no other sources, unlike the lead sections of the Marcos pages which are supported by multiple sources.
Should this be called to a consensus? Ganmatthew ( talk • contribs) 04:56, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Can we have a consensus on whether to replace the more ambiguous class NA-Class with Redirect-Class and Draft-Class for the template {{ WikiProject Tambayan Philippines}}? Currently, the NA-Class in Philippine-related articles by quality statistics lists Redirect pages while Others lists Drafts; other WikiProjects like WP:CA have no classes NA-Class and Others. I have proposed the change in Template talk:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines#A couple of suggestions but the proposed major changes would require consensus from members of this WikiProject.
Also, can we agree to add a B-class checklist in the template like in {{ WikiProject Germany}} to allow easier/more accurate scrutiny/assessment of articles? Sanglahi86 ( talk) 09:18, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
I am currently trying to get WikiProject Tambayan PH added to User:HotArticlesBot, which generates a daily list of articles under the WikiProject with significant edit activity. However, as mentioned at User talk:HotArticlesBot/Config.json/Archive 2#Protected edit request on 22 June 2022, it requires that there must be a main category for all articles under Tambayan PH, as it does not iterate through subcategories.
But before I can make an edit request to the Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines banner, the main category needs to be created first.
As such, I am gathering a consensus to create a new category called Category:WikiProject Philippines articles that the banner would automatically add all articles into, on top of their existing importance and quality subcategories.
Those subcategories under the current Category:WikiProject Philippines category would also be moved into the new category:
Besides for compatibility with the HotArticlesBot, this move would also conform to the current practices done by other WikiProjects as shown in Category:Articles by WikiProject. Ganmatthew ( talk • contribs) 07:55, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

So, I've mostly finished adding sources to players added on these all-time rosters. One thing I've noticed in all these pages is that they're all very different. Some pages have players' nicknames, others have jersey numbers, and some have trades in them. And I would like all these pages to have the same info in them.

I've updated the list of task forces and departments to reflect a status column on whether they are active or not. However, I think it would be better if others could clarify whether or not the departments and task forces are really active or not. At the same time, we should also assess reviving these task forces to streamline efforts in improving their relevant articles.
These are the ones I've indicated so far based on some of my observations on the relevant pages:

On another note, I would like to also propose task forces for some other active sects among PH-related articles that might benefit from a coordinated effort:

I'm wondering if any member of this WikiProject is able to find sources related to Mariano Yenko, particulary anything that can be used support content about his (supposed) death. Currently, there is only one source cited in the article, but that's just a brief mentioning of his name and isn't close to establishing his Wikipedia notability. The non-free use rationale for the file being used in the main infobox claims that Yenko died in the late 1980s, which may be true, but there's nothing to support such a claim in the article. So, the article is still being treated as a BLP even though Yenko is supposed to have died 35 or so years ago. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 07:03, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
The LTFRB just recently issued two memorandum orders which have reopened "90% of pre-pandemic routes", which also have accompanying route codes based on the new system they set up back in 2020. The problem is that these route codes conflict and are possibly meant to replace the existing ones at List of bus routes in Metro Manila.
With that in mind, are we going to shelve the old numbers and proceed with the new list provided in this copy of the memorandum orders? We are also going to have to update the bus route numbers across thousands of transport and place-related articles as well.

Heads up! As of this writing, there are four intellectual property law amendment bills filed in the 19th Congress. These are:
Those that I highlighted contain the freedom of panorama provision that we longed for, in the exact wording as the one at former Rep. Wes Gatchalian's House Bill 8620. Romero's bill focuses on increasing penalties as well as "rationalizing" its functions. Tolentino's bill is focused on protection of traditional knowledge and cultural expressions, probably after the issue between Nas Daily and Apo Whang-od. Anyway, the FOP provision in Salceda's bill is at page 79 (Section 206(m)), while the provision at De Venecia's bill is at Section 48 of the bill.
Let's hope freedom of panorama is introduced here soon, so that the deleted WikiCommons photos can now be restored/undeleted (plus a couple of deleted local enwiki images), and entries like " List of public art in Metro Manila" be enriched with comprehensive illustrations. Support from Pinoy Wikimedians is encouraged. _ JWilz12345 ( Talk| Contrib's.) 18:58, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

To hopefully improve the old PNG image in Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines, which looks quite antiquated due in part to its low resolution, SVG versions of the image were requested from Graphic Lab in Commons. Thanks to 痛, two SVG versions (transparent and white backgrounds) were initially created. I requested in Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines that the SVG with the white background replace the old PNG in the template. Paine Ellsworth granted my request; however, Sky Harbor used the transparent version. I contacted Sky Harbor in his talk page regarding the low contrast of the yellow sun against the template's yellow background; he said he found the white background distracting, and suggested maybe an outlined version might be better. I requested additional versions of the SVG from 痛 in Graphic Lab; 痛 created two additional versions: an white-outlined version of the sun, and another round white background. 痛 personally said he prefers the version with the round white background. I would have preferred the square white background, but also think the round white background looks good, much better than the transparent background.
In the meantime, I also
requested from Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines that the image size be changed from 50px
to 80px
, since the image was quite small compared to other WikiProject templates such as
Template:WikiProject United States, which currently uses 90px
. My request was denied on the basis that consensus first be made.
Your thoughts on this please? Should we use the round white background SVG image, and should we increase the image size in the WikiProject template to 80px
?
I would greatly appreciate it if anyone is able to provide input as to the general reliability of two Filipino publications at the above discussion. signed, Rosguill talk 21:41, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Recently a bunch of province articles have been edited with text which previously said "largest municipality" being changed to "largest LGU". While technically there is a distinction between cities and municipalities, "LGU" is a very jargony acronym that won't be readily understood by many. Are there opinions on the best way to write this? Writing out "local government unit" or writing "city or municipality" both feel a bit long.

This edit to Talk:Philippine Organic Act (1902) caught my eye. I see that article talk page does include the {{ Philippine English}} thmplate. The usage guidance in the docs for that template says, re articles including it, "Usually, the article either has evolved using predominantly this variety or has strong ties to a particular English-speaking nation that uses this variety." Yes, the Philippine Organic Act (1902) has strong ties to the Philippines; however, its topic is an act passed into U.S. law by the U.S. Congress. I assert that the Philippine English template is inappropriate here.
This causes me to wonder whether the usage guidelines for the Philippine English template might need more thought at the project level and more clarity in the docs for that template and whether, perhaps, this might need a review.

Recently, I recategorized Category:Maguindanao to accommodate the province's successors, Maguindanao del Norte and del Sur. As a consequence, its subcategories are now empty except for Category:People from Maguindanao, which is giving me a hard time to recategorize. I have considered recategorizing pages in this category by their birthplace, but according to WP:COPPLACE, the place of birth [...] is rarely defining from the perspective of an individual; and how about deceased individuals who didn't live long enough to see their province get divided (again), where are they from? Some of them have even died before Bangsamoro was created, so we can't put them there neither. Do they live in Maguindanao del Norte or del Sur retrospectively? Jokes aside, I really need your suggestions. Thanks. — hueman1 ( talk • contributions) 12:08, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
The Federico Caballero article describes him as an "epic chanter" (it seems he performs traditional epic poems), but links "chanter" to chanter - an unrelated musical instrument. Is there a more appropriate link for this (perhaps to the Philippines' oral performance tradition)? Also, is "chanter" a terribly good word, in English, to use (that is, do English sources use that specific word for his kind of performace)? Or would "traditional spoken word poetry reciter" be appropriate? -- Finlay McWalter··–· Talk 20:16, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
Hi all. Kindly see the Rigoberto Tiglao article.
Based on its history of edits, there were some concerns about BLP and content that may be possibly be inappropriate, in particular, the "Fake news and disinformation" and "Reception by other jounalists" sections.
While these sections are all cited, do they belong in the article? Should they be kept or removed? What can be done to improve the article? Regards, - Object404 ( talk) 22:59, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
Tiglao has repeatedly made the false claim that receiving foreign grants and funds by Philippine media organizations is illegal and against the Constitution of the Philippines. It is not. What is prohibited is foreign ownership and management of media. Article XVI, Section 11 of the Constitution states that: "The ownership and management of mass media shall be limited to citizens of the Philippines, or to corporations, cooperatives or associations, wholly-owned and managed by such citizens." Philippine state-run media entities under the Presidential Communications Group such as PTV-4, the Philippine News Agency, and Radyo ng Bayan receive foreign funding as well, such as from China.

I would like to open a discussion regarding on what ranking template to use in every competitions on Premier Volleyball League
, Spikers' Turf
and V-League (Philippines)
.
In the official websites of
PVL,
SPT and
VPLH, the standings only shows the "Win-Loss"–"Points"–"Points Win-Loss-Ratio"
and no "Sets Win-Loss-Ratio"
shown. Hence, I changed the
Template:Vb cl3 header &
Template:vb cl9 team into
Module:Sports table/Volleyball, because the latter have a parameter that can hide the "Sets Win-Loss-Ratio" so it reflects the standings on official website to their respective article page.
Also both in NCAA Volleyball and UAAP Volleyball the Module:Sports table/Volleyball is what other editors are using to rank the participating teams.
I've edited the ranking table on 2021 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference, 2022 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference, 2022 Spikers' Turf Open Conference and 2023 Spikers' Turf Open Conference but user Akasahe28 reverted the edits I made on the mentioned articles.
The Module:Sports table/Volleyball is much better to use in my opinion. 98Tigerius ( talk) 10:47, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
Question on the heading. Kinda feel bad for alumni that see their alma mater's articles get deleted.
Context is that secondary and tertiary educational institutions were once proposed to be notable (See Wikipedia:Schools for the failed notability proposals for for context). Now, schools need to satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Anyways since those past proposals didn't push through, we have a bunch of Philippine school articles that can be easily challenged for deletion. Lenticel ( talk) 09:09, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
I'm interested in making an article on Francis 'Lebron' Lopez, the young basketball prodigy set to play for the UP Fighting Maroons. However, I'm not sure what the title of the article should be. Should it be "Lebron Lopez", which is what the media has been calling him ever since he arrived on the scene? Or should it be "Francis Lopez", which according to an interview, is what he wants to be called by? What do you guys think? D-Flo27 ( talk) 03:56, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it generally prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable English-language sources). So try searching for news articles about him, and probably compared if either Francis or LeBron is more commonly used. Engr. Smitty Werben 00:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

For those who have encountered User:Hotwiki while editing Philippine television related articles, especially TV shows aired by GMA Network, you might want to share your insights at this ANI discussion.

I was going through some articles not specific to a location such as Frontage road, Bicycle helmet laws by country, and Shumai, which are articles that usually have a dedicated subsection for the Philippine context. Shumai (siomai) of course is an article that has a specific variation in the Philippines. However, the others are more like minor variations that exists in the country, like Ortigas Avenue and Roxas Boulevard having service roads or Quezon City having bicycle helmet laws.
So that being said, would it be appropriate if we also had article requests for subsections of said articles on or similar to Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Requests?
For example, I noticed that the frontage road/service road article did not have a section about such roads in the Philippines when it had for other countries, so I included a section for it. So the purpose of having requests for article subsections would then be to encourage WikiProject members to fill in the local context of topics like that.
However, as noted in the scope under Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Assessment, articles that are only vaguely related to the Philippines or can conceivably be tagged as related to too many countries should not be under the jurisdiction of Tambayan PH. So would it mean that this suggestion could apply for pages under Tambayan PH but not for articles that don't qualify for tagging, like frontage road and cycling helmet laws?

Hey, I wanted to request that an article be made about the topic of "snow in the Philippines". There already similar articles like snow in Florida, snow in Brazil, etc. There is a category Category:Snow by country. I am genuinely interested to know if it has ever snowed in any part of the Philippines. There are articles online like this one that claim that snow has fallen on the peak of mountains like Mount Apo, but that it is rare. But then there are other sites that also dispute that claim, saying that snow in the Philippines has never been confirmed. So which side of the story is true? I have also heard locals tell me about " snow rooms" (maybe we need an article on that too?), which are indoor places in the city that give Filipinos an experience with snow through artificial snow. Having never been to the PH myself (but I want to go), I thought it would be interesting to explore all of this through an article. PseudoSkull ( talk) 17:21, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

There are still some congressional districts that are not created (the new ones). The next stage is categorizing congressmen. As always, we can follow what the US did. See for example, Category:Members of the United States House of Representatives from Alabama, where it is subcategorized to per party (but not per district). As our politicians party-switch all the time, I think such Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines from Abra (province) should be the last categorization unless a lower-level LGU has its own district, whether defunct or current. (For example, Rizal and Antipolo).
As for party-list reps, they should be categorized per party, and not per LGU: an example is Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines for Akbayan. If someone can trace where the politician is from, Category:Politicians from Foo can be added.
There is a little issue though. Prior to the cityhood of the Metro Manila LGUs, some are arbitrarily combined with each other, the sole remnant of that is Taguig-1st and Pateros. You could create a category per district Category:Members of the House of Representatives of the Philippines from Taguig–Pateros–Muntinlupa, or use three categories for Rene Cayetano, one each for Taguig, Pateros and Muntinlupa... or two for Taguig-Pateros and Muntinlupa?

There has been inconsistencies when it comes to listing Filipino politician names. It would be better if there is some consensus about this.
The names tend to be presented as:
I think to make things simple we should rather go with the article name of the political figure's Wikipedia article if it exist or go for the concise version of their name if there is none.
The only issue is using nicknames (not just concise version of legal names) in the infobox such as using "Bong Go" on his infobox. Especially there is a trend of including honorifics in these people's infobox (e.g. Honorable Bong Go)

"Ma." is a common abbreviated form for "Maria" for Filipino names. My edit on Christina Frasco was reverted back to "Ma. Esperanza" from "Maria Esperanza" on the grounds that its her legal name. The question is should we be be spelling it? I am pretty confident that this abbreviation is a Philippine-only phenomenon. MOS:INITIALS may apply? An alternate is to retain "Ma." in the lead add a hatnote and succeeding instances should spell out "Maria"? But I think its less controversial for people with a WP:COMMONNAME with "Maria" in their name, even if their legal name shorthand that part of their name to "Ma." since a good amount of WP:RS will tend to spell out the name. Laying it out here for wider consensus and not just in the Christina Frasco article. Also pinging @ Jollibinay: who disputed my edit on said article for input/feedback.

Hi! I'm currently doing research to expand the article and there are two concerns I want to seek clarification on:
Firstly, the way I wrote much of the contemporary era of the History section seems mostly oriented towards developments of bike lanes being opened, establishments offering bike parking, or the LRT/MRT allowing foldable bikes onboard. I feel like this might come to a point where it might violate WP:INDISCRIMINATE, especially if in case such developments aren't really too notable, so I would like to ask if it's appropriate to write about such developments in the history section. What other aspects do you think I should focus on?
Secondly, I feel like the Bicycle use and ownership section, which mainly just explains or transcribes the Social Weather Stations surveys on bicycle use and ownership could be laid out in a more comprehensive way. Should I shorten it and try to explain it through a chart or graph instead?
Any other feedback is well appreciated. Thanks! Ganmatthew ( talk • contribs) 07:16, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

I've noticed that several edits in the last few months have been trying to change the article's lead section to label SMNI as a "far-right free-to-air news television network". It somewhat reflects a similar case to when multiple editors were trying to remove the "Marcos is a dictator and kleptocrat" line from the lead sections of Ferdinand Marcos, Bongbong Marcos, and other Marcos pages, which some were arguing either "turns off readers from reading further" or portrays an issue with WP:NPOV. Conversely, those who were affirming to keep the line argued that it is backed up by sources.
The far-right claim on the SMNI article, however, has only been supported so far by Rappler's investigative articles and no other sources, unlike the lead sections of the Marcos pages which are supported by multiple sources.

I am currently trying to get WikiProject Tambayan PH added to User:HotArticlesBot, which generates a daily list of articles under the WikiProject with significant edit activity. However, as mentioned at User talk:HotArticlesBot/Config.json/Archive 2#Protected edit request on 22 June 2022, it requires that there must be a main category for all articles under Tambayan PH, as it does not iterate through subcategories.
But before I can make an edit request to the Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines banner, the main category needs to be created first.
As such, I am gathering a consensus to create a new category called Category:WikiProject Philippines articles that the banner would automatically add all articles into, on top of their existing importance and quality subcategories.
Those subcategories under the current Category:WikiProject Philippines category would also be moved into the new category:

Currently, there is only one source cited in the article, but that's just a brief mentioning of his name and isn't close to establishing his Wikipedia notability. The non-free use rationale for the file being used in the main infobox claims that Yenko died in the late 1980s, which may be true, but there's nothing to support such a claim in the article.

The LTFRB just recently issued two memorandum orders which have reopened "90% of pre-pandemic routes", which also have accompanying route codes based on the new system they set up back in 2020.

Heads up! As of this writing, there are four intellectual property law amendment bills filed in the 19th Congress. These are:
Those that I highlighted contain the freedom of panorama provision that we longed for, in the exact wording as the one at former Rep. Wes Gatchalian's House Bill 8620. Romero's bill focuses on increasing penalties as well as "rationalizing" its functions. Tolentino's bill is focused on protection of traditional knowledge and cultural expressions, probably after the issue between Nas Daily and Apo Whang-od. Anyway, the FOP provision in Salceda's bill is at page 79 (Section 206(m)), while the provision at De Venecia's bill is at Section 48 of the bill.
Let's hope freedom of panorama is introduced here soon, so that the deleted WikiCommons photos can now be restored/undeleted (plus a couple of deleted local enwiki images), and entries like " List of public art in Metro Manila" be enriched with comprehensive illustrations.

To hopefully improve the old PNG image in Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines, which looks quite antiquated due in part to its low resolution, SVG versions of the image were requested from Graphic Lab in Commons. Thanks to 痛, two SVG versions (transparent and white backgrounds) were initially created. I requested in Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines that the SVG with the white background replace the old PNG in the template. Paine Ellsworth granted my request; however, Sky Harbor used the transparent version. I contacted Sky Harbor in his talk page regarding the low contrast of the yellow sun against the template's yellow background; he said he found the white background distracting, and suggested maybe an outlined version might be better. I requested additional versions of the SVG from 痛 in Graphic Lab; 痛 created two additional versions: an white-outlined version of the sun, and another round white background. 痛 personally said he prefers the version with the round white background. I would have preferred the square white background, but also think the round white background looks good, much better than the transparent background.
In the meantime, I also
requested from Template:WikiProject Tambayan Philippines that the image size be changed from 50px
to 80px
, since the image was quite small compared to other WikiProject templates such as
Template:WikiProject United States, which currently uses 90px
. My request was denied on the basis that consensus first be made.
Your thoughts on this please? Should we use the round white background SVG image, and should we increase the image size in the WikiProject template to 80px
?

The current revision appears to be a case of example farm, especially considering that Ilocanos are one of the largest ethnolinguistic groups in the country. I have not found list pages of Tagalog or Cebuano people. Sanglahi86 ( talk) 18:41, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
I tend to agree that the list is an unwelcome distraction within the article. The completionist in me prefers that it not be deleted,so a split makes sense to me. But yes, keeping that list organized would be difficult. - Batongmalake ( talk) 03:30, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Seeing as there are about over 40 article requests for law or legislation-related articles here, which of the requested legislations articles below are of high priority or importance? Or even those that are not well known but deserve more exposure?
It would be good to prioritize writing articles for laws that are either very topical or significant as of the moment, or those that are not well-known and writing articles on them would help shed more light or attention to them. Thanks!

Recently a bunch of province articles have been edited with text which previously said "largest municipality" being changed to "largest LGU". While technically there is a distinction between cities and municipalities, "LGU" is a very jargony acronym that won't be readily understood by many. Are there opinions on the best way to write this? Writing out "local government unit" or writing "city or municipality" both feel a bit long. (There is a separate issue where "largest" can mean by land or by population but the edits prompted this terminology question.) CMD ( talk) 10:46, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

This edit to Talk:Philippine Organic Act (1902) caught my eye. I see that article talk page does include the {{ Philippine English}} thmplate. The usage guidance in the docs for that template says, re articles including it, "Usually, the article either has evolved using predominantly this variety or has strong ties to a particular English-speaking nation that uses this variety." Yes, the Philippine Organic Act (1902) has strong ties to the Philippines; however, its topic is an act passed into U.S. law by the U.S. Congress. I assert that the Philippine English template is inappropriate here.
This causes me to wonder whether the usage guidelines for the Philippine English template might need more thought at the project level and more clarity in the docs for that template and whether, perhaps, this might need a review.

Would someone from this WikiProject take a look at Anthony Golez and assess it? I tried to so some minor cleanup, but there's still quite a bit of unsourced content. I'm not very familiar with articles about Filipino legislators, but perhaps someone from this WikiProject might be able to find some sources for some of the things mentioned in the article. Just for reference, the article was created by a paid editor working on behalf of the Malasakit at Bayanihan Foundation party and possibly the subject of the article. The article was approved via WP:AFC and the creator has made the declaration required by WP:PAID; so, neither of those things seem to be an issue now, unless the creator tries to start directly editing the article themselves. -- Marchjuly ( talk) 22:26, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

Recently, I recategorized Category:Maguindanao to accommodate the province's successors, Maguindanao del Norte and del Sur. As a consequence, its subcategories are now empty except for Category:People from Maguindanao, which is giving me a hard time to recategorize. I have considered recategorizing pages in this category by their birthplace, but according to WP:COPPLACE, the place of birth [...] is rarely defining from the perspective of an individual; and how about deceased individuals who didn't live long enough to see their province get divided (again), where are they from? Some of them have even died before Bangsamoro was created, so we can't put them there neither. Do they live in Maguindanao del Norte or del Sur retrospectively? Jokes aside, I really need your suggestions. Thanks. — hueman1 ( talk • contributions) 12:08, 12 January 2023 (UTC)
The Federico Caballero article describes him as an "epic chanter" (it seems he performs traditional epic poems), but links "chanter" to chanter - an unrelated musical instrument. Is there a more appropriate link for this (perhaps to the Philippines' oral performance tradition)? Also, is "chanter" a terribly good word, in English, to use (that is, do English sources use that specific word for his kind of performace)? Or would "traditional spoken word poetry reciter" be appropriate? -- Finlay McWalter··–· Talk 20:16, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

Tiglao has repeatedly made the false claim that receiving foreign grants and funds by Philippine media organizations is illegal and against the Constitution of the Philippines. It is not. What is prohibited is foreign ownership and management of media. Article XVI, Section 11 of the Constitution states that: "The ownership and management of mass media shall be limited to citizens of the Philippines, or to corporations, cooperatives or associations, wholly-owned and managed by such citizens." Philippine state-run media entities under the Presidential Communications Group such as PTV-4, the Philippine News Agency, and Radyo ng Bayan receive foreign funding as well, such as from China.

I would like to open a discussion regarding on what ranking template to use in every competitions on Premier Volleyball League
, Spikers' Turf
and V-League (Philippines)
.
In the official websites of
PVL,
SPT and
VPLH, the standings only shows the "Win-Loss"–"Points"–"Points Win-Loss-Ratio"
and no "Sets Win-Loss-Ratio"
shown. Hence, I changed the
Template:Vb cl3 header &
Template:vb cl9 team into
Module:Sports table/Volleyball, because the latter have a parameter that can hide the "Sets Win-Loss-Ratio" so it reflects the standings on official website to their respective article page.
Also both in NCAA Volleyball and UAAP Volleyball the Module:Sports table/Volleyball is what other editors are using to rank the participating teams.
I've edited the ranking table on 2021 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference, 2022 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference, 2022 Spikers' Turf Open Conference and 2023 Spikers' Turf Open Conference but user Akasahe28 reverted the edits I made on the mentioned articles.
The Module:Sports table/Volleyball is much better to use in my opinion. 98Tigerius ( talk) 10:47, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
Question on the heading. Kinda feel bad for alumni that see their alma mater's articles get deleted.
Context is that secondary and tertiary educational institutions were once proposed to be notable (See Wikipedia:Schools for the failed notability proposals for for context). Now, schools need to satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). Anyways since those past proposals didn't push through, we have a bunch of Philippine school articles that can be easily challenged for deletion. Lenticel ( talk) 09:09, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
I'm interested in making an article on Francis 'Lebron' Lopez, the young basketball prodigy set to play for the UP Fighting Maroons. However, I'm not sure what the title of the article should be.

Or should it be "Francis Lopez", which according to an interview, is what he wants to be called by? What do you guys think? D-Flo27 ( talk) 03:56, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it generally prefers the name that is most commonly used (as determined by its prevalence in a significant majority of independent, reliable English-language sources). So try searching for news articles about him, and probably compared if either Francis or LeBron is more commonly used. Engr. Smitty Werben 00:01, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

I was going through some articles not specific to a location such as Frontage road, Bicycle helmet laws by country, and Shumai, which are articles that usually have a dedicated subsection for the Philippine context. Shumai (siomai) of course is an article that has a specific variation in the Philippines. However, the others are more like minor variations that exists in the country, like Ortigas Avenue and Roxas Boulevard having service roads or Quezon City having bicycle helmet laws.
So that being said, would it be appropriate if we also had article requests for subsections of said articles on or similar to Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Requests?
For example, I noticed that the frontage road/service road article did not have a section about such roads in the Philippines when it had for other countries, so I included a section for it. So the purpose of having requests for article subsections would then be to encourage WikiProject members to fill in the local context of topics like that.
However, as noted in the scope under Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Assessment, articles that are only vaguely related to the Philippines or can conceivably be tagged as related to too many countries should not be under the jurisdiction of Tambayan PH. So would it mean that this suggestion could apply for pages under Tambayan PH but not for articles that don't qualify for tagging, like frontage road and cycling helmet laws?

Hey, I wanted to request that an article be made about the topic of "snow in the Philippines". There already similar articles like snow in Florida, snow in Brazil, etc. There is a category Category:Snow by country. I am genuinely interested to know if it has ever snowed in any part of the Philippines. There are articles online like this one that claim that snow has fallen on the peak of mountains like Mount Apo, but that it is rare. But then there are other sites that also dispute that claim, saying that snow in the Philippines has never been confirmed. So which side of the story is true? I have also heard locals tell me about " snow rooms" (maybe we need an article on that too?), which are indoor places in the city that give Filipinos an experience with snow through artificial snow. Having never been to the PH myself (but I want to go), I thought it would be interesting to explore all of this through an article. PseudoSkull ( talk) 17:21, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
