RP’s ‘largest’ barangay hall[edit]
I have to add the largest bar. hall in Philippines sun star: Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, assisted by Valenzuela Mayor Sherwin Gatchalian, Vice Mayor Eric Martinez, and Barangay Maysan chairman Enrique Urutia, on May 15, 2008, inaugurated the "largest" P 27 million (3-storey building with a floor area of 3,000 square meters on a 936-square-meter lot) Barangay hall in the Philippines. The Maysan Barangay Complex (MBC) is built in the middle of the 253-hectare Barangay Maysan, Valenzuela City.sunstar.com.ph, Arroyo inaugurates RP’s ‘largest’ barangay hall --Florentino floro (talk) 07:27, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Is it physically possible for a 3-story building on a 936 Sq Meter lot to have a total floor area of 3000 sq meters? maxsch (talk) 19:59, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, we don't have a picture here. But I saw the original picture in Inquirer.net, not online, but daily paper I buy. There, I was shocked how bit it is and our President Arroyo was dwarfed in the picture. It is so huge compared to all our Barangay halls here in Philippines, which regularly are just small offices. So, the picture of the biggest hall will show that the 3,000 sq. m. floor area may even be just 1/2 and many more sq.m.s can be added, since the building did not occupy the entire area. --Florentino floro (talk) 09:10, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- It may well be big, but what I meant was, 3 x 936 = 2808. That is not even taking into account the walls and staircases and elevator shafts. The building cannot be bigger on the inside than on the outside. 3000 M2 is impossible. maxsch (talk) 06:07, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
- I am not an engineer or architect, even if I studied high school geometry. I just added what I read in the article feature. You can delete 3,000 sq.m. figure and words there, but the problem, would remain therefore, by leaving the floor area, to the readers' wisdom. But anyway, the point of the feature, is: it is really so huge that even half of that, never existed anywhere nor was featured in the entire Philippine archipelago. We editors cannot blame the newspaper journalists for submitting those figures, since, we have to respect their fair and neutral reporting as they also should respect us editors. --Florentino floro (talk) 10:46, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe the building has lots of balconies. Someone the Person (talk) 23:54, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

- Explanation of issue: I am currently working under the said wikipedia page and was tasked to add the awards the City received over the last few years. I've been told to request it on the talk page to avoid any misunderstandings because of COI.

Elanicoll (talk) 05:07, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Elanicoll, and thank you for using the edit request system to submit your suggestions. Whoa, that is quite a long list of awards! I can't think of a single other large city whose Wikipedia article has a list of awards, let alone a list of length. I am afraid that the list cannot be added to Valenzuela's article. Such a long list would not only be promotional, it would overwhelm the article. For those reasons, I am declining this edit request. Best, Altamel (talk) 06:17, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
