Talk:Loren Legarda

Neutrality Problem
Words and phrases such as "played a crucial role in the expeditious release of...", "highly acclaimed...", "championed human rights..." and many others smack of self-marketing. Uncited mudslingings are prominent in this article. Jekjek 15:06, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

Connection?
What's the connection of the following:

"On January 29, 2008, Philippine Sen. Loren Legarda donated P 1 million ($ 1 = P 40) needed for 4-year-old deaf Filipino Raphael Angelo Provido’ cochlear implant at the Philippine General Hospital. Guillermo Mallillin, president of the Gruppo Technico Medico International Inc., distributes the cochlear implant device in the Philippines. Its Australian counterpart granted 70% discount on the device, which costs $20,000 a pair."

with Loren's 2010 presidential plans? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yueyouko (talk • contribs) 03:07, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Copyright Issue
Wow. I was looking through the references and I noticed that the majority of the article is quoted almost verbatim from this page:http://www.lorenlegarda.com.ph/about-loren.html under "Biography" Not only is this a copyright issue, it also explains the neutrality issues with this page. --Strigoides (talk) 09:26, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The copyvio text dump is occurred in 2009-04-19 by . I am attempting to fix it now. --Bluemask (talk) 09:37, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Content dispute
We want those sources and contents removed from this entry. I am from the Office of Sen. Legarda and we want to update the article however, it always gets reverted. We started this page and the reason why most of the content from the official website and this wiki entry are almost the same is because they are written by the same writer. Can the admin please give the rights to we can update this page. We would deeply appreciate it. Thank you.

I am going to revert the page one last time. I've also added two very reliable sources. If you disagree with them, tell it to The Philippine Star. See below:

 * What do you think of the Villar-Legarda tandem?. Manila. November 22, 2009. The Philippine Star. Retrieved on February 13, 2010.


 * Just keep in mind WP:CIVIL, WP:DR, WP:CALM and WP:CONSENSUS. I hope this turns out well. &mdash; Ledgend  Gamer  08:57, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

"If I'm not mistaken" ???
This page includes this phrase:

"If im not mistaken, Legarda married an Aranda from San Lorenzo Village..."

Who's "I" here? Seriously, is this wiki supposed to be a report in a college thesis or something? If copy-pasting is the trend nowadays, then why bother with Wikipedia? Just create a website entitled "Lazy Writers United" or something. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.54.29.4 (talk) 05:34, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

Lorna Regina Bautista Legarda → Loren Legarda – "Loren Legarda" is far and away and the most common name for this person, no matter how she'd like to be called as per the OTRS above. – H T  D  03:30, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Move, we don't list full names in Wikipedia as article title, especially if there is a common name for the subject. The shorter name is preferable as per WP:CONCISE.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 01:14, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Positions/Environmentalism summary section
It might be a good idea to collect together some of the material in the article regarding her environmental and other subject-specifc work into its own dedicated section. That said, much of the existing Senate, 2nd term and Senate, 3rd term sections is already devoted to environmental work she did during them, though it's organized mostly as a chronicle. If she has other particular policy positions, I think that would be reason to have a section summarizing them. --Anon423 (talk) 10:22, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
