 * Embedded links need to be converted into inline citations; tags need to be replaced with references in the same format.  I feel this article is generally undercited: make sure each paragraph has at least two inline citations, and of course any controversial statement or precise fact or figure needs citation.  All of this is doubly true because she is a living, active politician. -Fsotrain09 20:01, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * This article needs a lot of work before its even close to FA consideration. For one, the coverage is wildly imbalanced. The economy section, for instance, has only half a paragraph with actual facts about the state of the economy. The last sentence states "the poverty situation has not improved" (though the poverty rate is shrinking) and suggests that the budget deficit problem is worsening (it's improving dramatically). The large second paragraph dominates the section with coverage of the "holiday economics" policy-- which is relatively insignificant-- and it only seems to be set up there as a straw man argument. The eVAT, the centerpiece of Arroyo's economic policy, isn't mentioned in the article. --Coffee 04:44, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I noticed that while most of the content may make sense to us Filipinos who keep watch on the six o'clock news, it may not be matter-of-fact for foreign readers. Take the "State of Emergency" section; since it was covered on live Philippine TV, most of us were aware of what was happening by the minute, and we are familiar with the personalities involved. But how will other people know that this is true if they were not in Manila when it happened? This article lacks the references/citation that will allow non-Filipinos from verifying and validating these information. --- Tito Pao 13:58, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * The social weather indicators of the Social Weather Stations, see can be tapped to give a broader perspective on the quality of life of the Filipinos vis-a-vis Ms. Arroyo's leadership.  The satisfaction ratings of President Arroyo, on various timelines,  speak a lot, too. Let me know if I can help on this angle. --Pinay06 06:12, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * There are opinion polls of Pulse Asia, too, at --Pinay06 09:40, 4 December 2006 (UTC)]
 * The coverage on her being a Senator is lacking with the most important bills she authored not expounded regarding the implications and effects it made. Also, the Vice Presidency section lacks the behind-the-scenes of Edsa Dos. Plus her silence to the controversies surrounding Erap before the Impeachment Trial was set in motion (and even after, having only spoken against Erap vocally during the wee hours of the IT) should be included.
