NPOV issue with the 2006 part of the Timeline

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)

Liberalism and the Postcolony

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)

• @TheNuggeteer: There are multiple {{page needed}} tags on this article. Please rectify them.--Launchballer 23:38, 8 September 2024 (UTC)

• Done. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 00:16, 9 September 2024 (UTC)

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)

Fixed the improve categories tag, what do you need? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 03:50, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

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)

The Philippine revolution and martial law, which both signify the ideology was used in revolutions. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 04:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

that's not "mostly". ltbdl☃ (talk) 05:01, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean by that? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:04, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

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)

Another hook: ALT1: ...that the first liberalist party in the Philippines ended from government suppression? SRC 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 08:25, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Better, but you'd need an end-of-sentence citation for that party being the first.--Launchballer 10:45, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

What do you mean by that? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:26, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

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)

The sentence uses the same citation as the rest, but added just in case. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:31, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

Let's roll.--Launchballer 11:43, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
