Copy violation

Alot of the text from this page is copied directly from the official web site. A major rewrite would be nice focusing on organization and weapons, rather than just history. --Noypi380 15:22, 20 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. I'll see what I can do.Sharkface217 22:49, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My References are deleated, Why!?!

I keep puting the Barnegat-class frigate (BRP Andres Bonifacio(PF 7)) on the Frigate list in the article Philippine navy and I also put the references here it is [1]. So can somebody tell me why is it constantly being deleated!? What Wikipedia shouldnt have references to prove what im saying is correct. Why dont you just deleat all the references in this website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.92.107.236 (talk) 23:26, 13 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, your adding of reference is proper, but the problem is, the source itself is too outdated. The owner of your sourced website is a friend of ours, and he himself says that for the last 10 years, he has not updated his website. Do not worry though, I have this upcoming article regarding BRP Andres Bonifacio, her other sisterships, and even other decommissioned Philippine Navy frigates. For your information, I have already posted articles in Wikipedia regarding 2 other decommissioned PN major vessels, the frigates BRP Datu Kalanitaw and BRP Datu Sikatuna, and the corvette BRP Leyte. I am just completing my sources for the articles. Please don't get upset though, Sandstig and I were just doing our best to keep the articles up to date and accurate as much as possible. It just happened that your post is outdated. Thanks for the concern trying to make the article a better one. I hope you understand why we deleted your post. Just continue reading, and who knows, you may end up reading a lot more than just the scrapped BRP Andres Bonifacio (by the way, even her carcass is gone). Happy reading!

Oh ok. But Seriously does the Philippines only have 1 frigate I thought they might have more. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.92.107.236 (talk) 23:01, 14 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, only one frigate, and its really an old one. If only I could find a picture to the Andres Bonifacio I took is the mid 90s while it was half submerged in Naval Base Cavite. Actually we have noticed your posts to be too outdated, including your posts in Philippine military related articles. Please bear in mind that we are trying to keep the article up to date as much as possible, so please check your sources first before posting. If ever we delete some of your updates, it is because your posts were sourced from very old articles, or do not have any sources at all. Anyway, happy reading!

Barko or Bapor?

If you have seen the history of this article, there was a time when Ruffyuppie and I were editing the article regarding the prefix "BRP" used by Philippine Navy ships. I went for "Bapor", he went for "Barko". Now both can be correct. But as a basis, as per Philippine Navy directives (see my reference on the article), "Bapor" is the correct word that is represented by the letter "B" in "BRP". For info of non-Filipinos reading, the words "Barko" and "Bapor" means the same (ship), and "Barko" is even more widely used than "Bapor". But to keep Wikipedia as accurate as possible, we try to correct the article to the most accurate level as possible. If we can change the letter "B" just as we like, we may as well use the word "Bangka" (boat) and it may still be considered correct. anyway, cheers and happy posting!

Why was my Article about the Philippine navy gunboat deleated?

I added another ship called the BRP Federico Martir PG 385 (Patrol Gunboat)[2] which is a Philippine Navy gunboat that paticipated in the SEAGULL Excersise between Brunei and the Philippines[3]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.93.25.93 (talk • contribs) 2008-09-28T22:58:44

It was removed because BRP Federico Martir (PG-385) is already listed under the Jose Andrada class. Please refrain from inventing class names in the future. --Edward Sandstig (talk) 23:13, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent IP vandal

Hi, Please note that a very persistent IP vandal has been adding hoax material to articles on the Philippines' military, military history and ethnic groups, including this article. The IP addresses they've been using include:

As such, anything added by IP addresses starting with 118.93., 118.92 or 202.37 should be considered highly dubious and I strongly recommend undoing such edits on sight. Nick Dowling (talk) 23:17, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Its me (the Russian) Tatiana (IP user 202.37.68.58) and the wife of (Pinouy) Martin (IP user 118.92.160.13). I was wondering if you could (if possible) make a Wikipedia page/article of the Jose Andrada Class. I to am a constant editor at Wikipedia. PS: I convinced Martin (IP user 118.92.160.13) to stop making edits without refrences. PS again: Before I came to the Phuilippines I was with the Soviet Air Force Command in Moskva (Moscow). Thats why I like military stuf. Martin (IP user 118.92.160.13) uses my computer often just incase ur wandering. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.37.68.58 3:38, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Semi-protection

Guys someone is editing the page about the Philippine Navy which is the number of strength of its personnel by adding unnecessary numbers and comments which is very annoying. would someone pls protect fully the article by disabling the "edit link" so that no one would write unnecessary comment on this page. Thank you --- John —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.60.173.37 (talk) 01:14, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The level of vandalism isn't sufficient for that yet, but I'll keep an eye on it. Nick-D (talk) 07:21, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Strategic Sealift Vessel

There were reports that this project is canceled, but until there is no formal confirmation, please do not remove the topic. Same is true for all other parts of the article. Thank you. phichanad 19:17 06 November 2010 (UTC)

MANILA, Philippines - Despite the lack of multi-billion fund for the Modernization Program of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP), three old ships during World War II on the pinagretiro the operation of the Philippine Navy yesterday.

Variant of or the real Makassar class landing platform dock ?

I saw in this internet forum [7] (page 22) that the vessel to procure by the PN is a Makassar-class LPD. Is the PN really ordering a variant or the Makassar-class itself?
