Talk:Economic history of the Philippines

Factual inaccuracies
The GDP figure cited is too low; the figure might be in billions of pesos. Randytuano (talk) 12:06, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Link with other Wikipedia articles on Martial Law and the Philippines
The article can be linked with other articles on the Philippines. Randytuano (talk) 12:06, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Merger proposal
Many countries have articles on Wikipedia on their entire economic history. We have plenty of information here that deals with the economic history of the Philippines as a whole, and I was thus thinking it would be best if we merge this all into a single article so that the Philippines can be added to the list of countries which have their own 'Economic history of' articles. æt 'ə' rnal ðrAعon 04:17, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Tagged original research section: Harmony of Deep Determinants
This section advances an argument and presents a point of view – whatever that is.

Without going through sentence by sentence, notice the regular use of deontic expressions like "should", "has to", "needs to", "must". For example: "institutions really have to start looking for more productive uses of population". This promotes a particular course of political action, and presents opinion as fact.

Another sign is the rhetorical question: "how is the Philippines actually doing when it comes to these determinants?". This advances an argument.

There are also normative judgements, such as: "Belief in the spirit of creative entrepreneurship and the devotion of policymakers to the people and stakeholders that they govern are at least equally, if not more important, for poverty alleviation [...]" This presents an opinion as fact.

There is also no source given for the central idea of "deep determinants".

This section needs rewriting, referring to primary sources where these points are made.

Relevant policies include WP:NOR, WP:NPOV
