Marcela Agoncillo was nominated as a good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (November 23, 2007). There are suggestions below for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated.
Ambiguities
A certain newspaper excluded de before Marcela's surname. It's Marcela Mariño Agoncillo and not Marcela Mariño de Agoncillo. --βritand&βeyonce(talk•contribs) 11:32, 5 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Why
Was my writing bias? If so, please point line(s) where biases are stated. Thank you. --βritandβeyonce(talk•contribs) 12:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I have changed a bit where the POVs are. User:Neelix said that the Japanese thing was the cause so I modified some terms to a better one (I hope so). I added source but its not really a reliable source since its from Geocities. Thank you. --βritandβeyonce(talk•contribs) 03:07, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I wasn't specifically referring to the reference to Japanese soldiers when I placed the NPOV tag (I agree that many of their actions were cruel, but we can't write that in the article). Sorry for interfering with your nomination. It is good that you cite things such as "As a loyal companion on her behalf, Marcela was also a loving mother that she always taught her family and kins with good values." However, it is not enough to simply cite those claims, because they do represent value judgments. It would be better to say, "According to [Source XYZ]..." in those cases. There are other cases of such claims that aren't cited, e.g., "she raised her daughters to be fine ladies" and "she consistently provided her daughters with words of wisdom". It is clear that you like Ms. Agoncillo, but it is enough to let the facts speak for themselves. If you'd like to remove the NPOV tag, that's okay, but I think you will get similar feedback from the GA reviewers. You have done a good job with your research here; good luck in improving the article further. Dekimasuよ! 03:21, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I will not remove the tag until someone says it's resolved. Better someone will remove that ready for reassessment. --βritandβeyonce(talk•contribs) 03:37, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is in a more NPOV now. However, the article could use some extra book references and a Wikipedia:Peer review prior to GA nomination. --Lenticel(talk) 00:32, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. I wish the library of our school is complete. I would not hesitate to go their and use a lot of books to cite especially those articles which were not referenced yet. I will try to find later but I have no assurance. Maybe online sourcing is the only way. --βritandβeyonce(talk•contribs)00:46, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
GA Assessment
This article was quick-failed for containing the NPOV tag. You may renominate once the issue has been resolved. Ɛƚƈơƅƅơƚɑtalk 00:08, 23 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I removed the POV tag is that all discussion about the issue pointed to resolved, but no one removed the tag yet. User:Zscout370(Return Fire) 06:02, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
