Winning candidates per district Map[edit]

I suggest that someone must put a map of the Philippines with the winning candidates like in the 2019 elections. Eucalyptuskoala (talk) 21:11, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I used to do this, but the base map I was using was wrong, and that someone else did a far superior SVG version in 2019, but we can't find him/her now. If anything, we'd have to be using SVG images from here on out. Howard the Duck (talk) 14:13, 1 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Political spectrum column in the "Participating parties" section[edit]

ALB67 has changed what's displayed there (and the one found in the Senate election article) to one found in the individual articles. These used two WP:RS from Esquire Philippines which now sorta is not aligned with what's on the actual text. There are several problems with that:

PDP-Laban: ALB67 changed this to "centre-left" from "center-left to left-wing," supposedly to match the article PDP-Laban, but that's uncited. The Esquire reference doesn't explicitly mention where in the spectrum the party is. I'd be ok with leaving this blank, but there are more recent articles stating this party is between center and left-wing.
Nacionalista: ALB67 changed this to "centre-right" (MOS:TIES, but Philippine English uses "center" unless for proper nouns. This talk page screams "This article is written in Philippine English, which has its own spelling conventions (color, realize, center, travelled)" (emphasis mine). Another problem by ALB67's edit, sigh!) from "right-wing". Esquire says "largely 'right-wing'," while the article ranges from "Big tent" to "center right" with multiple references, none but one are supposedly newer than Esquire.
NPC: ALB67 changed this to "centre-right" from "right-wing". The Esquire reference does use "center-right". The article uses "center-right" and does use the Esquire reference.
NUP: ALB67 changed this to "centre-right" from "center to center-right". The Esquire reference uses "center to center-right". The article says "centre-right" but is uncited.
Lakas: ALB67 changed this to "centre-right" "right-wing". The Esquire reference does use "center-right" and the article says it is "centre-right" with a different reference.
Liberal: ALB67 changed this to "Center to center-left" to "centre to centre-left". Article uses "centre to centre-left" with two references including Esquire.

ALB67 should revert back the entries for this article; the Esquire article is from 2019; and none of the supposed references (if there are any) used in other articles (save for one in Nacionalista Party) are newer than that. These sections are meant to provide a snapshot of the parties on election day; and not a historical view of what the parties positions were in 1945, 1985 or 2015 (or even 2045). ALB67 should also use Philippine English in subjects about the Philippines unless stated otherwise. Therefore, s/he should restore the "center" spelling instead of "centre" not just in this article but in others s/he may have edited. That's the very least you can do, ALB67.

This has been here for almost a year, and sadly, ALB67 has never responded to this. I've tagged his changes of political spectrum as "failed verification", and reverted his usage of non-Philippine English spelling. I'll be reverting his changes re: political spectrum in a week if ALB67 still doesn't respond. Howard the Duck (talk) 22:16, 27 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
