Should explain what reclusion perpetua is.
 * Not in a new article, making the now red link (also similarly in the article) Reclusion perpetua blue ? 217.84.50.179 20:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I think it should be in another article, yes. Or possibly Wiktionary... --Masamage 01:42, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Or that! Bravo. --Masamage 03:29, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Isn't it the case that the Spanish form of the phrase is reclusió perpètua, but it is actually based on the Latin phrase: reclusio perpetua. The form reclusion perpetua appears half English, half Latin, i.e. neither fish nor fowl.  (See http://www.spellingcenter.com/reclusion+perpetua )  Or is this a Philippine idom?  --Ziusudra 11:30, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Erm... Spanish does *not* have a grave accent, ever, and Latin words ending in "-io" turn into "-ión" in Spanish. Furthermore, "perpetu@" does *not* have an accent on the second "e"; the Spanish phrase is "reclusión perpetua". &mdash; Nightst a  llion  (?) 22:57, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

What on earth is up with the methods section? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.87.57.120 (talk) 03:33, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Electric Chair
The article mentions the electric chair several times, with some inconsistency. It says Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 22:12, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * In 1926, the electric chair was introduced by the United States colonial government. This made the Philippines the only country besides the United States to employ this method. The last colonial-era execution took place under Governor-General Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. in February 1932. There were no executions under Manuel L. Quezon, the Commonwealth's first President.
 * The electric chair was used until 1976, when execution by firing squad eventually replaced it as the sole method of execution.
 * [...] The new law, drafted by Ramos, restored capital punishment by defining "heinous crimes" as everything from murder to stealing a car. [...] This law provided the use of the electric chair until the gas chamber (chosen by the government to replace electrocution) could be installed.
