Horacio Castillo III hazing case and hazing in the Philippines
The hazing case causing the death of Horacio Castillo III is big news, but why cannot you catch up with that? Looks like that case may further cause the revision of the current Anti-Hazing Act of 1995 to criminalize fraternity/sorority hazing or initiation rites, especially those causing severe injury or death.

Too add this up, hazing in the Philippines is not even covered. If you can, please cover those, especially past notable cases and the law[s] that regulated it. TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 10:53, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I'll deal with these topics within the following few days.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 08:05, 24 September 2017 (UTC)
 * It was already a week after the incident, but you haven't worked on it yet. Are someone having an article for Horacio's death already created, and hazing in the Philippines covered in the "Hazing" article? If someone is eager to add those, no problem, but you may still continue on improving it or if there is no development, you'll do.-14:57, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I am gradually working on Hazing-related articles. Anti-Hazing Act of 1995 already exists, and also List of hazing deaths in the Philippines. (both can still be improved) I can't promise any sort of time-frame. But I will work with such type of articles on my own pace. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 05:00, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

List of hazing deaths in the Philippines
Right now I'm focusing on updating the dates, I'm not quite sure at what level you are looking at for the other notes. I would like to add something for Ferdinand Tabtab indicating that no one was convicted, but as you indicated in the article, the standard here is mostly what the news calls it, not any resulting convictions.Naraht (talk) 21:12, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

As an additional comment, I'm an Alumnus of Alpha Phi Omega (USA) which is related to Alpha Phi Omega in the Philippines, so please let me know if you think I don't have a neutral POV on the article.Naraht (talk) 21:12, 5 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the efforts of improving the list. For the notes, any other information regarding the incident can be mentioned there (historical significance, convictions, etc.). Hazing deaths are a particular topic of interest for the Philippine national media as part of a larger debate on hazing practices by fraternities in the country (even though fatal hazing rites may be committed by other organizations). This particular dark side of fraternities are widely known in the country (While I don't know how big is the hazing death issue in the US is). But so far, I don't see your edits as non-neutral.Hariboneagle927 (talk) 04:55, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
 * So "7 QQQ Brothers charged with ..., 2 convicted" if available is fine. Hazing deaths are also a topic of interest in the USA, but the characteristics of the hazing tends to be different. For cultural reasons, hazing deaths in historically Caucasian Fraternities tends to be alcohol overdoses and hazing deaths among fraternities and sororities that are historically African American (and other traditionally non-Caucasian) tends to be somewhat closer to what happens in the Philippines. But as you can tell from the two Hazing articles that even though the USA is five times the size of Philippines, that if anything, the Philippines has more. I nuked the single source template as well, if anything, it may be better sourced than the USA article, but given that 2/3 of the deaths are post-1990 on the Philippines article, and less than 1/3 are post-1990 on the USA article, that isn't a surprise.Naraht (talk) 11:14, 6 October 2017 (UTC)

Editor of the Week
User:Slightlymad submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
 * I nominate Hariboneagle927 to be Editor of the Week for his exhaustive yet quite unnoticed efforts in writing and improving Philippine-related articles for over eight years on behalf of WikiProject Philippines. My last encounters with him were in Philippine articles he created—,, —all of which I briefly copyedited; I saw his name on the article's page history and I thought it sounded familiar. Out of curiosity, I learned then from his recent contributions that he has written and significantly improved articles about Philippine current events as well as Filipino athletes, among other things. I have never seen a Filipino Wikipedian who has contributed as ferociously as this user, whose namesake is the Philippine eagle locally known as the Haribon, which is also known for their ferocity and beauty. I can't imagine someone like him not contributing to the encyclopedia; this unsung Filipino Wikipedian deserves the 2017 Eddy Award.nomination.
