1511

[edit]

Magellan and the Portugese may have reached Mindanao in 1511 from west, and from their base in India. In this same year, they reached the Spice Islands in the south. If they did, they did not bother to record it.--Jondel 09:35, 18 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

January 2011 cleanup edits

[edit]

This edit came up on my watchlist, which apparently relocated an unsupported assertion apparently expressing a POV held by one anonymous WP editor from one part of a section headed "Another timeline" to another. The "Another timeline" section had been inserted by this edit by a previous anonymous edit from a different IP address. That section was entirely unsupported (except for a couple of supporting cites re the change of date of the Independence Day holiday which look like they were probably added by me at some point in the past), and the section did not fit well with the article as it stood prior to its insertion — indeed, it seemed to take issue with some of the article content present prior to its addition. I have boldly removed it.

I've also removed a badly formatted unsupported assertion inserted anonymously by this edit.

I note that the content of one section is formatted as a table, while the other sections are formatted as bulletted lists. This should probably be regularized.

I've also inserted a {{Refimprove}} tag. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 04:19, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Table formatting problems

[edit]

In this edit, I fixed one serious table formatting problem.

This article, however, has a large number of existing unrepaired table formatting problems where an empty table cell has not been provided for rows which do not provide references. I see two alternatives for fixing this: (1) add the empty cells, and (2) remove the References column and put thee <Ref>s immediately after the Event assertions which they support. The table currently contains at least one entry in the form of the second alternative (see the year 1457), and that is the alternative which I would favor because the first alternativee invites future occurrances of this problem as new entries are added to the table without supporting references and without providing an empty table cell for the supporting references not supplied. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill)`

Note to the author:

[edit]

The timeline is a bit weird. The dates are correct but the headings aren't. Just check out the headings and you would see it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.191.46.236 (talk) 04:13, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request to Improve References ao December 2016

[edit]

Hi. I've noticed that this timeline is poorly referenced, and that a few unsourced fringe theories have found their way here. Since this page is an overview, it shouldn't be hard to find orthodox, reliable Philippine History references. This is a request to the community to please add sources. As you can see, I've just now added a Refimprove template, which ought to remain there until everything is properly referenced. Thanks. - Alternativity (talk) 06:36, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alleged US Govt promises on April 24 1898

[edit]

Here, I've removed a table row reading:

Year Date Event Source
1898 April 24 The US government promises support in exchange for his cooperation. Aguinaldo agrees

No supporting source is cited for this. I believe this refers to an alleged occurrence described at Bell, Ronald Kenneth (1974). "The Filipino Junta in Hong Kong, 1898-1903: history of a revolutionary organization". Calhoun: Institutional Archive of the Naval Postgraduate School: 116. (see also footnote 6 on page 162; page numbers here are the PDF page numbers) and in other sources (e.g., Aguinaldo, Emilio (1957). A Second Look at America. pp. 30–31.). This source I have cited describes meetings claimed by Aguinaldo between himself and U.S. Naval Commander E.P. Wood, who was commander of the gunboat Petrel. Supposedly, Wood was acting in behalf of Commodore George Dewey. Even presuming that the account in the cited source is accurate, neither Wood nor Dewey had authority to make promises of the sort asserted on behalf of the United States government. Also, though the source I've cited does not give a date for the meeting described, the April 24, 1898 date given by the removed table row was one day (if U.S. time) to two days (if Hong Kong time, and considering the International Date Line) prior to the U.S. Congress declaration on April 25 that a state of war existed between the US and Spain (I note in passing that the table gives April 26 as the date of this declaration).

 Done. Kuyabribri, yes, it should have been clearer, but in this case, there was inconsistent use of BC/BCE in the article. IP, in the future, please be more precise about what you want to change. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 15:35, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Including Sri Lanka as part of native Hindu areas

[edit]

This is not an error but it's fixing the map to include Sri Lanka as part of ancient Indian subcontinent.

Hi @C.Fred, I'd like to point out some errors and oddities in the article again. Which are: May 19, 1571, (Rajah Sulayman's name might have been mispelled as "Suliman". Though I'm not certain whether this was intentional or not.). March 17, 1764, (It's just de Anda, when it should probably Simon de Anda.). July 7, 1862 (The anchor redirects me to another Salvador Valdes. The Cuban politician and Trade union leader, instead of the Governor-General.). June 7, 1869 (Which redirects me to the article of racing driver Manuel Maldonado Vargas.). December 12, 1888. 1912, (No date.). May 21, 1967. December 24, 1974. June 7, 2002. April 20, 2007. And October (No date), 2009. Yunus H. Abdulla (talk) 13:03, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Yunus H. Abdulla
  • 1571-05-19: I can't verify the spelling one way or the other; this may ultimately be a transliteration issue.
  • 1764-03-17: Use full name, Simón de Anda y Salazar.
  • 1862-07-07: Unlinked Salvador Valdés, since there is no article on him.
  • 1869-06-07: Unlinked Manual Maldonado, who also does not have an article.
  • 1888-12-12: Fixed spacing and comma.
  • 1912: Fixed spacing.
  • 1967-05-21: Fixed spacing and grammar/word choice.
  • 1974-12-24: Fixed spacing.
  • 2002-06-07: Fixed spacing and comma usage.
