Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo
I nominated this article for this is definitely alright and it seems that corrections have been already made earlier. --- Kevin Ray 11:08, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose has external jumps and citation needed tags. Refs are not formatted properly. Rlevse 12:45, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose &mdash; too early. The article was submitted to FAC and PR at the same time. Wait for PR first, then improve the article and then submit here. &mdash; Indon ( reply ) &mdash; 16:10, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Oppose Shouldn't be on peer review and fac at the same time. After improving the article through peer review, then it could possibly be submitted to fac. Hello32020 20:15, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose per above. Let the peer review finish first. --- Tito Pao 13:51, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong oppose In a historical situation where it is very difficult to judge what is the truth the article mostly ignores the suppressed opinions. An example: For journalists the Philippine became the most dangerous country in the world besides the Irak. Killing of members of Human Right Watch organisation were incredibly growing. Believing The Manila Times freedom of demonstration etc. is less than under Marcos dictatorship. Regarding a lot of messages in 2006 its possible that the Edsa II was a well prepared putch against an elected president (see the DVD about the live of Estrada), and that the real winner of the elections 2004 was Poe . friendship 05 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Er...okay, I get your point. But this page is not the place to talk about the controversies about GMA, however I agree with you. To put it more correctly, Wikipedia is not a soapbox where you can rant (or, for that matter, rave) about anything under the sun. We're here to discuss articles based on its merits, not on the subject of the article itself. Save that for later, however you and I want her to get kicked out of Malacanang for good. Just so that you may know, I'm strongly opposed to this article as a featured article nominee not because I don't like the prospects of seeing her face on the Main Page, but because the article, on its own, badly needs clean-ups and proper sources. --- Tito Pao 01:24, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * This should be closed already... -- Howard  the   Duck  13:28, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
