NPOV issue with the 2006 part of the Timeline

edit

The entry in the Timeline for the year 2006 uses words and terminologies that call into question its neutrality.

In particular, the line, "With the marching orders and blessings of Lakas, LP members sympathetic to the Arroyo administration used the meeting on 2 March to install Manila Mayor Lito Atienza as the party" prejudges the actions of the other faction of the LP, and is a common claim both by the faction headed by Sen. Franklin Drilon and persons that are against Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo.

Unless a citation proving that there was indeed "marching ordders and blessings of LAKAS" to the other faction of the LP can be provided, the entry for the year 2006 should be revised, in keeping with NPOV guidelines. That, or post the claims of the Atienza camp.

Otherwise, that post on the 2006 event is simply a parroting of the Drilon faction's press releases. The Drilon faction has its own website, at the very least, to post stuff like that, and such propaganda should have no place in a public encyclopedia.

Also, a cursory reading of Philippine political news, even the ones in online news organizaitons, will show that the split in the Liberal Party started much earlier than the "Manila Hotel" incident of 2006. --AzurePhoenix (talk) 07:00, 24 September 2009 (UTC)Reply

Liberalism and the Postcolony

edit

Can someone please expand the article with the book reference Liberalism and the Postcolony?, I'm unexperienced with this type of citation and would love someone to expand the article using the reference. I made it until page 10, so you can start there. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:52, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Long enough, new enough. QPQ done. Earwig highlights a couple of phrases, but I can't think of another way of wording them so calling WP:LIMITED. I think the {{improve categories}} template should be resolved. Could you talk me through the sourcing for the hook?--Launchballer 23:14, 10 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Fixed the improve categories tag, what do you need? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 03:50, 11 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm not seeing where in the article the hook is spelt out, unless I'm going blind.--Launchballer 09:45, 11 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
The Philippine revolution and martial law, which both signify the ideology was used in revolutions. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
that's not "mostly". ltbdl☃ (talk) 05:01, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
What do you mean by that? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:04, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
The hook reads as quite unspecific and vague, the meaning is not clear to a reader with no background. It would be better to have a more specific and concrete fact. CMD (talk) 08:12, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Another hook: ALT1: ...that the first liberalist party in the Philippines ended from government suppression? SRC 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:25, 12 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Better, but you'd need an end-of-sentence citation for that party being the first.--Launchballer 10:45, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
What do you mean by that? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:26, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
The fact that the Comite de Reformadores was the first liberalist party needs an end-of-sentence citation. See that link for what that means.--Launchballer 11:29, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
The sentence uses the same citation as the rest, but added just in case. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:31, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
  Let's roll.--Launchballer 11:43, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Launchballer: This fails WP:DYKTAG. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 06:34, 21 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
In my defense, that was added after I approved this. I already fixed what I considered to be the worst errors.--Launchballer 09:17, 21 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hook may need rewording before promotion because ALT0 just doesn't flow as it should DimensionalFusion (talk ▪ she/her) 21:35, 23 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
  I think a new review is required given the maintenance banner and the odd phrasing of the hook DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 10:06, 25 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Since there is a standing maintenance banner and the nominator is currently at ANI with a strong consensus for a topic ban from content review processes (here), we should probably reject this nomination unless someone else wants to take conduct of it. ♠PMC(talk) 01:29, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I will take a look, I seem to be able to access all but one of the sources. CMD (talk) 02:20, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Premeditated Chaos and Launchballer: I've reworked the article. It could be expanded a lot more, even from the existing sources, but it should be fine as is for DYK. I would be grateful for a third-party evaluation of whether the maintenance banner is still applicable, and handling any appropriate admin here.
I would also suggest a new hook:
CMD (talk) 06:42, 6 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
  That hook fails the bit of WP:DYKHOOKSTYLE that says "the boldlinked article should generally be the main or at least a major factor in the hook", and this is more than two months old so I'm timing it out. Sorry.--Launchballer 00:40, 7 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
  Following the post at WT:DYK I'm reverting the close here, the objection doesn't make sense. The bold link could not be more relevant to the hook, the hook explains how the bold link topic became dominant in the country. CMD (talk) 16:14, 7 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
  Verified for ALT2. Verified that the article is long enough, that there are no plagiarism concerns through the Copyvios tool and spotchecking, and that ALT2 is sourced in the article. I agree that the {{Copy edit}} template is no longer needed after Chipmunkdavis (talk · contribs)'s excellent copyedits. I've also made a few copyedits. Cunard (talk) 09:27, 10 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
