Talk:Philippine Army

message: I want to rearrange the order of the table like in this order first is the small arms (infantry weapons), next is the armoured vehicles followed by utility vehicles, then the artillery, next is the aircrafts and the last one is the watercrafts. Does anyone agree with this?

thread_title: Adding a new column for photos in the table of equipments

message: I have moved the initial paragraph of the Philippine–American War (1899-1902) section of this article here for discussion. That paragraph concerned itself with the Philippine Revolutionary Army (PRA), and was added without support in this October 2016 edit. As it appeared before I moved it here, it read as follows:
What caught my eye about the paragraph was the bit reading "the Filipinos fell from one position to another". "fell" there was probably intended to read "fell back".
However, what grates on me about this paragraph is that it begs the inference that the PRA was an organizational forerunner of the current Philippine Army. That has been much discussed in the past and, as far as I can see, is simply not true. In this speech marking the centennial of the end of the Philippine-American War, President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo acknowledged that the First Philippine Republic ended with the capture of Emilio Aguinaldo on March 23, 1901, commented that some Filipino generals fought on after that date under the leadership of General Miguel Malvar, and acknowledged asserted that the war ended with the surrender of General Malvar on April 16, 1902. As far as I can see, the Philippine Revouutionary Army as an entity ceased to exist on or prior to April 16, 1902 and the Philippines had no army from that point up until the enactment of Commonwealth Act No. 1 on December 21, 1935.
I suggest that the paragraph quoted above be simply removed from the article. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 01:30, 7 May 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe that this comment figs more appropriately in the #Assertions in the infobox and in the lead disputed section below. I will re-echo it at the bottom of that section and will respond there. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 13:11, 5 October 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Philippine Revolutionary Army 

message: Here, I've made a WP:BOLD change in the article. It's a minor change in content, but it's a major change in the thinking behind the article. Basically, it is a change to this edit to the article which was made on October 9, 2016. That edit inserted three paragraphs into the article with an edit summary saying →‎History: Fixed typo, Fixed grammar. I only just now noticed the import of the one line of that earlier edit which I have now changed. Wtmitchell  (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 11:43, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lack of organizational relationship between PA and PRA 

message: Here, I have WP:BOLDly removed mention of the Spanish translation of the name (as Ejército del Tierra del Filipinas) from the infobox.  I did this after seeing several edits changing the Spanish version of the name from Ejército Filipino. That former Spanish translation appeared without explanation in this October 25, 2020 edit. I don't know what the justification was for inserting the Spanish translation, but one possible justification might be the mention of Spanish along with Arabic in Article XIV, Section 7 of the Philippine constitution as an official regional language. That justification, however, might imply that translations of the name in Arabic and in other official regional languages ought to be listed as well as Spanish. Another possible justification might be the past history of the Philippines as a colony or Spain, but I don't see due weight in that connection for the mention of the Spanish translation of the name of this particular article.
