I don't think that "The Incorruptable" is an epithet, which implies a very negative connotation, but rather a very favorable nickname for a politician (to which very few of them would likely legitimately be entitled) and that this thusly needs to be reworded. Rlquall 20:08, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Japanese Occupation Record
The description of DM's Japanese Occupation activities is unsubstantiated. See Nick Joaquin in "The Battle of the Books" for the criticism of DM's claim to WW2 guerrilla heroism. Also, see journalist Hernando Abaya's memoirs, "Memoirs of a Subversive" which claims DM was a collaborator. Gareon 07:47, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Date proclamation moving recognition of Philippine independence day signed.
Minor quibble but the copy of the proclamation for the moving of the date recognizing Philippine independence which I believe is Presidential Proclamation No. 28 that I read says May 12 1962 in the document. Is the June 1962 date when it became executory or were there other circumstances? Lambanog (talk) 10:21, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Sorry it took me so long to see this -- I apparently neglected to watchlist this page. You're right. I've fixed this in the article and cited a supporting source which I had not seen until now. Thanks. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 03:30, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

What kind of "pulp" is this talking about?
At the very end of the 'Socio-Economic Program' section, the word "pulp" is used with absolutely no indicators to what it's referring to. Is this supposed to be a reference to paper-making? Someone please fix the link to point to the appropriate pulp article if they know what this is supposed to mean. -- Fyrefly (talk) 21:49, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Dunno; "pulp" was copied and pasted from the cited source. It looks like several paragraphs were WP:COPYPASTEd here. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 00:44, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Do you thing a "copy paste" tag is necessary? There are lots of paragraphs in this article that was copied from other sites like http://www.macapagal.com/dm2/biography/tributes.html and http://www.macapagal.com/dm2/. Usually, they are copied from the reference/s the author provided.-- JL 09 q?c 01:36, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Languages
The article says that he wrote poetry in Spanish and Chinese. Knowledge of Spanish is no surprise for someone of his background, but where did he learn Chinese? His family does not appear to be of Chinese descent and the article does not mention any close association with Chinese speakers, study of Chinese, or residence in Chinese-speaking areas.Bill (talk) 23:41, 18 November 2020 (UTC)
