GA criteria commentary

edit
  • Article appears stable enough.
  • Sources look reliable per WP:CITEUNSEEN.
  • The only image in the article is in the public domain as it was created by a Philippine government employee. However, I would try to find a higher-quality image of him. Additionally, I think the caption should be "at an e-rally" instead of "on an e-rally", assuming he was participating in said rally.
  • There is another image of him at debates but the portrait cropped versions have relatively less pixels than the main image. Changed caption
  • Earwig indicates a 31.5% likelihood for a copyvio. Call me strict, but that number is a bit high for my liking, and I think some (not necessarily all) of the content in question (taken from Inquirer.net, here) can be better rephrased in your own words.
  • Most of the "copyvios" are just his positions, and I do not think I can rephrase them. Tried to rephrase some parts though.

Article commentary

edit
  • I doubt there is much of a need to have the years in the subsection headings.
  • Removed
  • Additionally, there are chronological issues: it seems like the first paragraph starts with 2001, then moves on to 2013, and then backtracks to 2007; these events should be presented in chronological order. Please revise the entire paragraph to make sure this is done correctly. I see no issues with this regarding the national elections section though.
  • Changed
  • Montemayor said that "He will" - the H in he should not be capitalized; this is how it should be: Montemayor said that "[h]e will"
  • Changed
  • Remove "as": declared a nuisance candidate, and also define what that is or, if there is an article for it, link to it
  • Removed and linked
  • because of certain issues of death stating - explain what these issues are, and also add a comma before "stating"
  • Added comma and linked
  • he said that him and David should be changed to he and David
  • Changed
  • He lost, gaining 10th place or last, receiving 60,592 votes or 0.11% of the votes. His vice presidential candidate also got last place, gaining 9th with 56,711 votes, or 0.11% of the votes. The word "votes" is repeated four times here, please remove accordingly to avoid overusing the word. Additionally the phrase gaining 10th place reads awkwardly.
  • Changed

@TheNuggeteer: Please ping me when these have been addressed and I will proceed to a source spot check. Gommeh (talk! sign!) 18:55, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Second run-through

edit

Ah, I forgot to add - the lead is a little short. Please lengthen it so it includes more information on him that is covered in the article; e.g. the policies he would have put into action if elected as well as his viewpoints.

  • Added

"Philippine Daily Inquirer" should be italicized.

  • Done

Is there much information on his personal life? If so, that needs to be added.

  • Yes, but as it was a single sentence, I merged it with Early life and career

Source spot check

edit

I will be using this version of the article to check sources for verifiability.

Source 1 checks out.

Source 2(a-g) checks out.

Source 4(a-c) checks out.

Source 7 largely checks out, except for the last part where you say the survey respondents "voted" for Montemayor. The source says "would vote for" him, not that they already did vote for him. The rest of it is fine though.

  • Fixed

Regarding source 8, I am not familiar with the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism. Can you attest to its reliability?

Source 10 checks out (I had to double check what COC stood for, but still it's fine).

Source 13 checks out, although it says "Pasay City" and not simply "Pasay". Based on the content at Pasay I doubt this is a big issue, but I would question whether "City" is necessary or not.

Source 15 does not, as far as I can see, have that specific quote in it, however it does paraphrase it. If this is from a speech of his, it would be better to either paraphrase this in your own words or cite the primary source itself.

  • Just removed the quotes. If the source paraphrases this, than this counts as a paraphrase and will not contribute to copyvio.

Regarding source 17, I would say that he "did not report" any donations to be more accurate to the source. In BLPs, I believe it would be best to stick even more closely to what the source says than we normally would for other articles.

  • Done

Source 24 checks out.

Ping me when these have been addressed and I'll be happy to pass this. Gommeh (talk! sign!) 13:57, 10 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Did you know nomination

edit

Created by TheNuggeteer (talk). Number of QPQs required: 3. DYK is currently in unreviewed backlog mode and nominator has 38 past nominations.

  • @TheNuggeteer: (not sure why I pinged you at Balon as well...) Both long enough; David is new to mainspace and Montemayor is a GA. Both QPQs complete. Earwig picks up many WP:LIMITED phrases, though I'm not convinced it rises to WP:CLOP. I am not seeing "in front of" in the article and the hook could easily be trimmed to "endorsed a different presidential candidate to his running mate". (The hook itself is marginally interesting; not so dull that I'd reject it, but the time to propose ALTs is now.) Also, backlog mode.--Launchballer 16:13, 18 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
