Misgendering of PBA athletes

[edit]

Fiddling with athletes these days when I noticed that several players have been misgendered as male in talk pages and included in WikiProject Women's Sport (ex. Eddie Laure, Robert Bolick, Fritz Gaston and Carlo Sharma). Is this the work of an overlooked vandal or a bug? Borgenland (talk) 17:05, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It was by KiranBOT, a bot, so a bug.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 01:10, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Hariboneagle927 and Borgenland: thank you for pointing out the mistakes. I was provided a list of around 4000 categories. These categories were supposed to contain articles about only women. There might have been an oversight while creating the list itself, or some men's articles might have been added to the incorrect categories. Regarding Carlo Sharmam, and Robert Bolick which are from Category:De La Salle Green Archers basketball players is for men's players, which seems to have been in the list. While Eddie Laure was assistant coach of the UST Golden Tigresses women's varsity basketball team, maybe thats why he is of interest for the women's wikiproject? Fritz Gaston is in the Category:Philippines women's national basketball team coaches. I am willing to rectify/make changes based on suggestions, but I think first we should look for the reason which caused these edits. Maybe @Hmlarson: can help. —usernamekiran (talk) 11:31, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There had been men who had coached women's sports teams in the Philippines (and probably elsewhere).
Tip for categorization for college sports teams: In the USA, the women's teams almost always have the same team nicknames as the men's teams. For example, the women's basketball team of the University of North Carolina are also the "Tar Heels", just like the men (not "Lady Tar Heels"). There are a very few exceptions. In categorization, the way to distinguish is the word "men's or "women's" in the titles.
In the Philippines, the women's teams are named after the women's counterpart of the male nickname, which is always (no exception) the primary nickname. For example, the men's basketball team of the Far Eastern University are the "Tamaraws", while the women's team are the "Lady Tamaraws". It can be creative, like "Growling Tigers/Tigresses", but mostly the word "Lady" is added, like "Knights/Lady Knights". The 2 exceptions are Ateneo de Manila University and University of the Philippines Diliman, which are like the US teams having the same nickname regardless of sex, so it's always "Blue Eagles" and "Fighting Maroons", respectively. For categorization, the women's teams usually have the word "Lady", while the men's teams do not.
There were a series of WP:RMs about this, and the latest just ended a few days ago. See Talk:University Athletic Association of the Philippines#College sports articles naming; there had been categories that had been renamed as a result.
While men can coach women, men can't play with women (not yet), and women don't play with men (no women are good as men yet to make a team), so the player categories can be straightforward for now. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:39, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can reverse the changes to the articles from that list. I already have the program ready. —usernamekiran (talk) 12:38, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I can only speak for projects involving the Philippines. For now there is certainly that Ateneo men’s, UP men’s and the 2 UAAP men’s are wrongly categorized. Will check the others later. Borgenland (talk) 12:41, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Jeez Category talk:UAAP men's basketball tournaments was tagged as women's sport when the category title itself mentions men. All Adamson, Ateneo, La Salle, FEU, NU, UE and UST categories were also wrongly tagged.
Interestingly, the NCAA (Philippines) teams may not have been affected. I checked Category talk:Letran Knights basketball players and there were no women's sports project link.
Category:Kentucky State Thorobrettes basketball is a women's team; the men's team are the Category:Kentucky State Thorobreds basketball, an example of Philippine-style naming in the USA.
The other categories seem to be sports teams and competitions from other countries and someone else should make a judgment on those. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:47, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Errors in Ancestral houses of the Philippines

[edit]

Hello fellow wikipedians :)

The page "Ancestral houses of the Philippines" contains many errors. The primary issue seems to be a mismatch between the title "Ancestral Houses of the Philippines" and the specific focus on "Heritage Houses" as declared by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines. What could or should be the correct approach in rectifying this? Should the page be renamed "Heritage Houses of the Philippines" and focus solely on that, or should a new page be created for declared heritage houses and remove the inaccuracies from "ancestral houses of the Philippines"? Johnpaulo5860 (talk) 00:52, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest opening a discussion about this at the talk page. People here have been informed already, so they can join if there if they want to. Howard the Duck (talk) 23:57, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dave Bautista on Tambayan Philippines

[edit]

Hello people! I just want to ask if Dave Bautista known as Batista a former WWE superstar should be included on this WikiProject? Because Dave was a half filipino based on Inquirer.net. For me, it should included in our WikiProject. Royiswariii Talk! 04:04, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If Bautista was heavily involved in some activity in the Philippines, sure, that would be fair game, but for now, not really. Blake Gripling (talk) 05:07, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Blake Gripling!
You might check this post wayback 2015 on Official Facebook Page of Bautista, i think it's a movie on James Bond movie i think, it's caption Just told that I'm the first Filipino actor in a Bond film! Is that really true?? So, might be a contribute too? Royiswariii Talk! 05:38, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
For perspective, do we have common assessment standards on Filipino-Americans? Borgenland (talk) 12:04, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Borgenland!
Well, Beabadoobee was on our WikiProject and she's Filipino-Birtish, Asa Miller and Jordan Clarkson was on our WikiProject and they are Filipino-American. Maybe Bautista can be added on our WikiProject too. Royiswariii Talk! 13:31, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, Rob Bonta a politican on US, and he's Filipino-American too. Royiswariii Talk! 13:34, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that Dave Bautista was the first Filipino-American that entered on WWE, so it might be a consideration? Royiswariii Talk! 13:39, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There's an AFD about one of Sara Duterte's staffmembers (no, not the one cited for contempt and is now in hospital arrest). I have argued for a merge and redirect to an article about the current happenings, but it seems there's no such article about that. The last one was 2024 constitutional reform attempts in the Philippines, but that's for charter change, and not just solely about Sara Duterte's issues. There was discussion on what happens next after that, and it seems that this is it. The current article can be transformed into a discussion about the current congressional hearings, but what should be the title? 2024 Philippine congressional hearings on Sara Duterte? Howard the Duck (talk) 01:13, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds more like a full-blown political crisis beyond Batasan these days but I couldn’t think of a more sober title for now. Borgenland (talk) 01:16, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Mary Grace Piattos? Howard the Duck (talk) 01:20, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Or should it be something along the lines of the expenses scandal? Borgenland (talk) 05:22, 24 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If Sara Duterte is impeached, it would be a lot easier. The expenses scandal has been ongoing for a long time, and was rooted in the House not granting her request of more confidential funds for the 2025 budget. I realize we actually do not have an article about that, but should have. Howard the Duck (talk) 01:28, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How about "Assassination plot against Bongbong Marcos, Liza Araneta Marcos and Martin Romualdez by Sara Duterte, if she were to be killed first"? That's one heck of a long title. HueMan1 (talk) 14:15, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd rather call it the Marcos-Duterte dispute or vice versa. Borgenland (talk) 14:29, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd like this, but its Martin Romualdez that's doing the dirty work. I kinda like 2024 Philippine congressional hearings on Sara Duterte until Sara Duterte is impeached (since this is where they are going at), then it becomes Impeachment of Sara Duterte. Howard the Duck (talk) 19:28, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I folded up Romualdez as a blood relative of Marcos (can't make it look like a three-way fight) but I am leaning support for this. Borgenland (talk) 19:33, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah Marcos-Romualdez-Duterte dispute looks weird. Are we going to wait until VPSD is impeached or has someone already has something in the drafts or somewhere? We can have VPSD's staffmembers names redirected to that article, such as Acosta's, once created. Howard the Duck (talk) 21:03, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Upon further thought, Marcos–Duterte dispute or even Romualdez–Duterte dispute is not exactly right as House representatives have been the ones doing the dirty work, while Romauldez is mostly behind the scenes; i.e. Romualdez doesn't show up on hearings.
Suggested article titles:
Any of these article titles will be superseded if VPSD is impeached (by these reasons). Howard the Duck (talk) 21:25, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello people! I nominated Sara Duterte on ITN you can check this ITN Sara Duterte. Let me know if I need changes or suggestions. Royiswariii Talk! 05:04, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As much as "In the news" is named "In the news", it doesn't actually include everything that's "In the news". If Sara were impeached over this, then yes, that would be ITN-worthy. But statements are just statements; nothing has happened. This is a nothingburger. Chlod (say hi!) 05:16, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, i thought that too but i just tried to ITN if it will entered my nomination since and this is a controversial and a big conflict.Royiswariii Talk! 05:26, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a requested move discussion at Talk:Libingan ng mga Bayani#Requested move 26 November 2024 that may be of interest to members of this WikiProject. HueMan1 (talk) 11:24, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Man, this WP:RM is so shameful LOL. This should not have been done. Now there's a chance this will be moved to the article name absolutely none of English speaking Filipinos (sorry, not part of the English speaking world now I guess?) use. Utter shambles!

Mashiding Lomandong

[edit]

Could someone from this WikiProject take a look at Mashiding Lomandong and assess it per WP:BIO? Most of the sources cited in the article are to Facebook posts, and the creator might have a WP:COI. If, however, the subject is notable, those things could possibly be cleaned up or better sources could be found. -- Marchjuly (talk) 07:45, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

At this stage it qualifies for speedy deletion. Borgenland (talk) 07:54, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
