"Minority bloc" in "Accused parties" section
edit"Minority bloc" has a strict definition when it comes in the Senate. The reference used makes no mention of the word "Minority", and Marcos was never and still is not a part of any "minority bloc" since 2010. –HTD 18:32, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
- Do not worry, I checked and revised it. --Image2012 (talk) 07:51, 28 August 2013 (UTC)
Acronyms?
editMany of the acronyms may only understood by Filipinos. This may need attention. However, acronyms are common in Philippine English and are at times easier for Filipinos to understand than when they are written in full expanded text. At the moment though, the text in this article doesn't meet WP:ACRO.GuyHimGuy (talk) 21:51, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
Before someone calls me out to {{sofixit}}, the article has a glaring silence on the involvement of Butch Abad, whose budget office is the starting point on all government transactions involving disbursement of money. –HTD 08:54, 17 May 2015 (UTC)

A wiki on the scam or on the scandal?
editIf this wiki is about the scandal that the scam created, shouldn't it be retitled, then, to something like "Priority Development Assistance Fund scandal"? Unless, of course, we focus on merely describing the scam, in which case we can then create a subsection on this scam's impact on the public's awareness of it, the resulting scandal. So which is it? -- Bagoto (talk) 03:23, 7 October 2015 (UTC)
