Let's discuss how to make this article better. Lam Ang is my favorite hero (although I'm not Ilocano). i've made changes before last dec. of 2005 (made this article better...i think).

July 2007

I've reverted the article to a previous version. Due to the way in which information was added (spaces in front of sentences) it caused severe disruption to the article's layout, (huge horizontal scrollbar, nonformat boxes, etc.) and the article was not readable in that format.

Please see the following: Cite your sources, Manual of style, Layout guide, First article, Article development and How to edit.

Finally, it is always a good idea to review Wikipedia's copyright policy prior to adding material. Cutting and pasting from another site is not allowed. If you wish to include material from other sources, you'll need to summarize, paraphrase, condense and try to keep formatting in line.

The information is still in the history, so if someone would like to add it, using Wikipedia formatting, please feel free! (Realize that Wikipedia does not use HTML, or conventional spacing. For example, do not indent sentences, or it ends up being put in a "nonformat" box such as you see blow, in which text will not wrap, and will simply continue horizontally.)

Thank you, ^Ariel♥Gold 12:08, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is what happens when you indent any sentence, and text will not wrap.

Un-referenced content and categories removed

Removed content claiming that the Biag ni Lam-Ang was influenced by indian texts, and categories sorting it as Indian literature. The poem was passed down to Bukaneg orally in the Ilocano language, and has Spanish Catholic elements in it as well as indigenous Ilocano motiffs. There's literally NOTHING Indian here.- Alternativity (talk) 10:44, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Alternativity, kindly provide more sources with Bucaneg as source.(see below). Thanks.--Jondel (talk) 08:13, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jondel, I made this entry in July last year and started making edits, but found that I could not find any primary, secondary, or reliable tertiary sources connecting Bukaneg with the writing of the epic. It seems that the scholars definitively attribute it to Isabelo de Los Reyes, with the Bukaneg connection being mostly apocryphal. If you find any further sources, feel free to add them. But basically, I everything I've read suggests that the Bukaneg legend is just that - a legend. - Alternativity (talk) 04:53, 3 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bucaneg and the Latin wiki

Hi. I need more sources with Bucaneg as a source, specially for the Latin wikipedia. Feel free to participate in the discussion. --Jondel (talk) 08:13, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

21st century literature from the Philippines and the world

is an epic story of the Ilocano people from the Ilocos region of the Philippines. It is notable for being the first Philippine folk epic to be recorded in written form, and was one of only two folk epics documented during the Philippines' Spanish Colonial period, along with the Bicolano epic of Handiong.[1]: 6 It is also noted for being a folk epic from a "Christianized" lowland people group (the Ilocano people),[2] with elements incorporated into the storytelling. 136.158.100.59 (talk) 10:49, 7 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
