Talk:Red-tagging in the Philippines

Latest comment: 1 year ago by Pandakekok9 in topic Marcos administration subsection

Lualhati Bautista edit

The section on Lualhati Bautista contains passages relating to an allegation that she threatened to contact the employer of the person who red-tagged her. Similar claims have been flagged in the articles on Lualhati Bautista and SLAPP (also discussed on the SLAPP suit talk page) and deleted because of WP:BLP and WP:VERIFY. Am proposing removal of parts referencing threats to contact Bautista's accuser and related details. --Crisantom (talk) 11:53, 25 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • - Support - After examining the pages mentioned above, I agree with Crisantom's suggestion. - Kathy97sub (talk) 15:09, 25 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
Per WP:BLPRS this qualifies for immediate deletion. Seven days have passed with no objections. Removed passage and pasting it below to WP:Preserve. --Crisantom (talk) 04:40, 1 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

The [[Labor Code of the Philippines]] prohibits employers from removing an employee for reasons not directly relevant to their work. Further, it is by convention that the employee does not reflect his employer's opinions unless explicitly claimed.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Labor Code of the Philippines {{!}} Bureau of Labor Relations|url=https://blr.dole.gov.ph/2014/12/11/labor-code-of-the-philippines/|access-date=2020-12-03|language=en-US}}</ref> Libel and cyberlibel law in the Philippines has historically only criminalized malicious publications of defamatory articles, as in the case of Keng v.

Marcos administration subsection edit

That subsection under "Criticism of the concept" doesn't seem to deny the existence of red-tagging as a concept, which is what the main section is about. pandakekok9 (talk) Resist internet censorship in the Philippines! 15:23, 9 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
