message: While no good research has come up yet about what seems to be common imported/Western music between the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore (and also Hong Kong or even Taiwan), so is the continued play of many 70s, 80s and 90s Western AC music in the local radio in those countries, I will like to bring up a plan on cleaning up articles about individual songs which have uncited claims of being no. 1 or just radio hits in the Philippines. Top example is with the mention about "Dying Inside" being a no. 1 hit in the Philippines on the Timmy Thomas article (there's no good Philippine music chart yet during the 90s when it was hit, not to mention it was a best-selling single as well in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore during the same era by claimed sales; should replace that claim with a more verifiable claim such as claimed/certified single sales from PARI or another contemporary music industry source). Also another thing is with songs being listed as a recurrent in PH radio without any source (take for example "Some Hearts are Diamonds").
I would also like to bring up the potential creation of an list article about best-selling singles in the Philippines (we currently only have a list of best-selling albums). Existing info is on list of best-selling singles by country#Philippines; most instances are based on claimed sales as found in archived editions of Billboard published in the Philippines.-TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 07:00, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Anyone interested? Input, especially from people in the music task force welcome. Also, I just created a draft for a section about contemporary MOR radio format for addition into the adult contemporary music article (just need sources, but I got the wording ready).

message: Someone might want to look into creating an article discussing this common self-deprecatory expression, which might also has to do with cultural cringe. There are article for similar concepts such as big in Japan and world famous in New Zealand but not this one. TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 04:21, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  "[[Only in the Philippines]]" 

message: The present article for Philippine debut is rather in bad shape. There is just only one source, and while there are lots of details, it doesn't have info on origins to Spanish-era or precolonial traditions (as compared to similar traditions such as the Latin American quinceañera, where it has much similarity).

message: The Historical background section of De La Salle Araneta University is unsourced and appears to have been copypasted (possible from its website). Need help fixing or removing section altogether. Borgenland (talk) 16:23, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: Will try to salvage what I could. For now I believe what is visible should be split off into a separate section. Borgenland (talk) 17:16, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: On second thought I will just split what remains off and wait for a final decision on the history. Will make a hidden draft though. Borgenland (talk) 17:17, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

message: Does anyone know how to build information about the barangay? Ahri Boy (talk) 14:12, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: @Ahri.boy current consensus is that barangay articles are typically discouraged unless there are sufficient independent sources that substantially mention the barangay (not just mere statistical sources from PSA), such as Forbes Park, Makati. If the only reliable sources to be found are mere statistical information, the barangay cannot be notable per WP:GEOLAND, and expansion of the municipality article (Alubijid) is encouraged.

message: Arts in the Philippines has excessive images. Maybe we can at least reduce the gallery images per section to five or four? I tried removing several images, but it still needs a major cleanup. Sanglahi86 (talk) 03:54, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: Much of this might be a function of a lack of existing subarticles, or limited development/connection with the subarticles. The gallery image of T'nalak for example is not included in the main article. CMD (talk) 06:15, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: I am at a loss right now on what to do. Do you have any suggestions? Sections Pottery, Woodcarving, Basketry, and Maritime transport currently have about 15 to 16 images in their respective galleries. Sanglahi86 (talk) 07:38, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: In an ideal world we would have separate articles for all those topics (List of Philippine boats and ships is basically a disambiguation page and doesn't count), but in the meantime, there are many specific articles where some of these images might be already, and if these are mentioned in the text then nothing is really lost removing them. If you're unsure and don't want to lose images, you could comment them out within the gallery which leaves them in the html for later editing but reduces the large galleries.

replies: text: Thanks for the insights and tips. I added some hatnotes in the article and also related article requests in Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Requests in the hope that someone might create them. Regards. Sanglahi86 (talk) 08:33, 4 June 2024 (UTC)

thread_title:  Kanlaon 

message: We currently have background history of the popular masa aka "contemporary MOR" radio format on the Filipino nationalism and the presidency of Joseph Estrada pages, but there is also a lack of sources regarding especially its introduction by the NTC and its adoption by the major FM radio networks (such as Love Radio, Yes FM, Star FM, iFM, Barangay LS). Well, I have a draft version of a discussion of that said format, which I am planning to add as a subsection of the adult contemporary music page as one of the variations of the associated radio format. Would appreciate any help adding RS to back those. TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 17:44, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
