What does 1st Class City mean?

[edit]

Anyone? Does it mean something or is it just boosterism? --AW (talk) 15:36, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Figured it out --AW (talk) 06:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Move. Jafeluv (talk) 10:34, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Calamba CityCalamba, Laguna — Part of series of multiple page move requests involving Philippine cities under the category Cities/Municipalities with the same name as other local cities/municipalities (regardless if it is highly urbanized, independent or component city). This request is made after preliminary discussions for the removal of the word "city" from most of the article titles of Philippine cities and providing disambiguation wherever necessary. Some disambiguation may involve using the <cityname>, <provincename> format, regardless if it is highly urbanized, independent or component cities. In here, <provincename> purports to describe the general area and not necessary as the mother political unit of the city, since some people might have wrongly believed that this naming convention is exclusively for Philippine towns only. For more information please see Wikipedia_talk:Tambayan_Philippines/Task_force_LGU#Article_names_for_Philippine_cities:_.3Ccityname.3E_.3Ccity.3E. JinJian (talk) 14:27, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removing the word "City"

[edit]

We should not remove the word "City" after the name of a city in every article here in Wikipedia. We should emphasize the word "City" so that the people will know. Biñan, Laguna is now a City, others will not know that unless we will indicate to its article here that it is a City by making its name as Biñan City.

There was once a discussion if you don't know. And that discussion was posted everywhere a long time ago.--JL 09 q?c 15:01, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

User:WikiCalambenyo

[edit]

User:WikiCalambenyo (and 3 IP users, all from the same company in Makati (same as WikiCalambenyo?)) keeps on reverting my edits in one shot without any explanation. I intend to improve the article by formatting it consistently with other Philippine municipalities/cities, by correcting mistakes (for example, official name is "City of Calamba", not "Calamba City" - see seal!), by removing obvious duplication (for example, the Calamba Plaza), and removing non-encyclopedic content (for example, WP is not a directory for listing businesses). IMO, such edits are in line with WP:EDIT, WP:MOS and WP:NOT (actually, I've been holding back from a more aggressive clean-up - there is so much unreferenced material that can be challenged and removed). Yet, if there are specific issues with my edits, discuss the matter here to come to consensus instead of just undoing everything. -- P 1 9 9   13:53, 17 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mayor's political party

[edit]

The article said the mayor was a member of the Liberal party. The article for the mayor Jun Chipeco, Jr., says he is a member of the Lakas-Kampi-CMD party. I changed his party in this article to match the article about Jun Chipeco, Jr.. If this is incorrect, please fix it in both places. Thank you.

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Clear consensus to retain the current title. -- BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 16:09, 28 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]



– The city in Laguna is the clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for the precise name of "Calamba" versus the municipality in Misamis Occidental (or even the railway station or the school in the city). It is a 1st-class income city with a population of 389,377, while the municipality is only a 4th-class income municipality with a population of 21,005. And the city is well-known as the birthplace of José Rizal, the national hero of the Philippines. seav (talk) 01:56, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
