Talk:Ivatan people

Survey
WP:Good article usage is a survey of the language and style of Wikipedia editors in articles being reviewed for Good article nomination. It will help make the experience of writing Good Articles as non-threatening and satisfying as possible if all the participating editors would take a moment to answer a few questions for us, in this section please. The survey will end on April 30.


 * Would you like any additional feedback on the writing style in this article?


 * If you write a lot outside of Wikipedia, what kind of writing do you do?


 * Is your writing style influenced by any particular WikiProject or other group on Wikipedia?

At any point during this review, let us know if we recommend any edits, including markup, punctuation and language, that you feel don't fit with your writing style. Thanks for your time. - Dan Dank55 (talk)(mistakes) 03:03, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

On review (GA Passed)
Please correct. They have a native delicacy called uvod (the pith of the banana stalk) - uvod is not derived from the pith but rather from the root of the banana, though technically it is a modified stem called corm. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.92.144.128 (talk) 08:41, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

 * Those 2 pictures towards the bottom have really broken up the article, there are too many mini sections in the CULTURE section which are completely unnessary. I think removing all these subheadings and shifting the pictures around will really help.
 * Fixed. --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The origins of the Ivatans remained "unsettled by" scholars. - unsettled amongst would be better. im not sure "unsettled" is the best word to use either.
 * Changed to "...untraced among scholars..." --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Christianized - odd word
 * Changed "Christianized people" to "Christians". Is that better --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Their now famous stone houses - famous need source. Add sentance should also be added to the housing sub section.
 * Its fully sourced below. --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Ivatans have adopted their now-famous stone houses made of limestone, "designed against the hostile climate". - should say, designed to protect against the hostile environment.
 * Fixed. --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * coming of Spaniards - needs rewording
 * Fixed. --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * The Ivatans were under Spain for 115 years, and was freed in September 18, 1898. - under spain, that needs better wording, freed on ....., freed well kinda pov, say something like independance.
 * Fixed. --Efe (talk) 01:49, 22 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Ironically, June 6 is celebrated in Batanes as its founding day. - source
 * Sourced. --Efe (talk) 01:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * They also have strong mixture of the short Mongol type - needs clarification.
 * Fixed. --Efe (talk) 01:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

These were distributed to the six municipalities, with 38% residing in Basco, 23% in Itbayat, 12% in Sabtang, 11% in Mahatao and 8% for Uyugan and Ivana.[2] In the 2000 census, 15,834 Ivatans comprised of the 16,421 population in Batanes.[4] - lots of wiki linking possible here
 * Linked. --Efe (talk) 01:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
 * These crops include yam, sweet potato, taro, garlic, ginger and onion, - wikilinks
 * I think its against Manual of Style (links). --Efe (talk) 01:59, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
