Talk:José Rizal

message: This edit caught my eye. I've reverted it without much thought or research, hoping for some WP:BRD discussion here, even though I'm currently busy outside of WP and may not be able to participate. The edit removed "Constantino's analysis has been criticised [...]" from the article, saying: Some essay on Scribd is not a reliable source. Well, yes. However, the scribd essay says only that Constantino's "Veneration Without Understanding" has been unchallenged for decades, until now [, but] Bob Couttie has put it in a new and disturbing light]" -- that is, neither the essay nor scribd take a POV position other than to cast Couttie in the light of a source deserving of consideration based on credentials they summarize. The essay says that Couttie "puts Constantino under the microscope" but, unfortunately, does not cite a source where the details of Couttie's microscopic analysis can be examined. Can we trust scribd not to blow Coutties bonafides out of proportion and not to misrepresent its assertion that Couttie has looked through that miscroscope and, in some undisclosed forum, reported what he thinks he saw there? If the answer to that is yes, it seems to me that this ought to stay in or (better) be replaced with an assertion which cites a supporting source which discusses what Couttie sees through his microscope.
OTOH, I see that Bob Couttie is a redlink. Perhaps Couttie doesn't meet WP:GNG and his writings don't meet WP:DUE. (written in a rush) Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 17:50, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

message: In the introduction it says he is 'tagged as the national hero of the filipino people'. I'm guessing this was written/translated by someone without english as the first language but either way as written the wording feels clumsy.
I think it is.Khamer Jun Manalo (chat) 07:45, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

"A plaque marks the Heidelberg building where he trained with Professor Becker while in Wilhemsfeld. There is a small Rizal Park in that city where a bronze statue of Rizal stands. The street where he lived was also renamed after him. A sandstone fountain in Pastor Ullmer's house garden where Rizal lived in Wilhelmsfeld, was given to the Philippine government and is now located at Rizal Park in Manila"

In Addition, one of the banks of the Neckar river in Heidelberg is named Rizal Bank. A memorial stone was placed there in 2014."https://www.heidelberg.de/hd/HD/service/14_07_2014+Gedenkstein+am+Rizal_Ufer+eingeweiht.html" 2003:C9:7F0D:3154:F4CB:75BF:A750:6A09 (talk) 22:17, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

message: On the picture -Execution of Filipino insurgents. May I request to change the word INSURGENT? This is a defamatory word to our countrymen who fought for our freedom. Use words like Filipino patriots, and the like, instead. Thank you. Maestro2333 (talk) 13:01, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Not done: "Filipino patriots" would almost certainly be a violation of WP:NPOV. I don't think "insurgent" is a particularly morally loaded word (let alone one that would be "defamatory" in this case) so I personally don't see a problem with it, but if you still see an issue you are welcome to discuss it on this talk page and establish consensus for a change. Given however it is language accepted at the page for the Philippine Revolution I don't think this will be likely. Volteer1 (talk) 13:38, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
