[edit] Article movement

The official title of the body is the Armed Forces of the Philippines and therefore this article needs to be moved to that namespace. --Gerald Farinas 06:44, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Damn Right!

[edit] Copyvio

New article incorporating all text from the old article except the obvious cut-and-paste from the Philippine Defense Department website is at /Temp. I have no idea why this heavy-handed approach is appropriate for a copy vio'ed section; if we move that page we lose the editing history of this article. --Dhartung | Talk 08:15, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

According to the admin who did this, apparently it's standard Wikipedia policy. See User_talk:Mushroom#Your_copyvio_edits_to_a_bunch_of_Philippine_articles. --Edward Sandstig 08:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

As an alternative, here is the last "good" version before the edits of the cut-and-paste offender (unregistered, naturally). This is now at /Temp2. --Dhartung | Talk 08:30, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

How I sometimes wish they'd require registration for all edits. Easier to track offenders. :) --Edward Sandstig 08:38, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Mushroom has graciously reconsidered his position, and reverted this and other articles. See User_talk:Mushroom. --Dhartung | Talk 21:24, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Copyvio again?

We recently re-started this article minus the copyvio portion, but had it reverted again today to a supposedly "non-copyvio" version. Which portions of the most recent version were copyvios? --Edward Sandstig 18:28, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
