  • @TheNuggeteer: Not a review, but the hook is in the wrong tense (should at minimum be 'will be') and I fail to see how it meets WP:DYKINT.--Launchballer 18:05, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
    • @Launchballer: In any case, article was removed from redirect June 9 and was only nominated ten days later, three days late from the prescribed period. This is not going anywhere. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 05:59, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
I'm going to overrule this as @TheNuggeteer: is a new user (this is their second nomination) and WP:DYKNEW can be extended for a day or two upon request. (Don't do it again mind.)--Launchballer 07:38, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
The QPQ tool says otherwise, but your funeral. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 08:35, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
I don't use the QPQ tool, which is in alphabetical order anyway. I go through users' contribution histories.--Launchballer 08:47, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
ALT1 ... that the 2025 Philippine general election is set to be the first to be held under a new voting system provider after the previous one was disqualified over bribery allegations?
Nothing else stands out that is unique to this particular election or seems to meet DYKINT, at least as of right now. I'll leave it to others if "previous one" should link to Smartmatic. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 13:16, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
Yes, this should be interesting enough sans the wikilink. Thanks, Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 13:26, 3 July 2024 (UTC)
Strongly suggest that "will be" be replaced by "is set to be" or the equivalent. WP:CRYSTAL applies here to a certain extent: something could happen in the Philippines to change next year's election provider between now and then—it might even revert to the previous provider, however unlikely that seems at the moment—and "will be" is a definite prediction of the future while "is set to be" simply says that this is what's expected as of today.

Fixed. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 23:19, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
The option seems better, any option is okay if the article is at-least in the main page. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 12:21, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
@TheNuggeteer: I'll take this one. Long enough, IAR new enough. Hook is short enough, interesting, and cited - though consider replacing 'corruption' with 'bribery'. QPQ unnecessary. However, several sections lack references and in some case lack content and these will need to be remedied before primetime.--Launchballer 10:33, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Can you tell me which sections lack citations? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 10:35, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Several sections of Electoral system and I don't see where Congress is cited. I also think Implementation of Miru Systems should be filled out.--Launchballer 10:47, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
The only section in Electoral system I see which is not sources is Congress, which I fixed, anyways, Miru systems already has a bunch of subsections, maybe you want text in the actual section? 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 11:31, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
No, I'll be honest and say 'I didn't notice that 'Implementation of Miru Systems' and 'Disqualification of Smartmatic' were different sizes'. I think the two hatnotes should be merged under both headers. Where is your source for the first and third paragraph of Electoral system?--Launchballer 13:38, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
I don't see any unsourced content in Elections to be Held. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗23:07, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
And I don't see any references in either of those sections. Are they cited elsewhere or something?--Launchballer 23:26, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Pretty confusing, I see in Elections to be held has Ref 65, Ref 67, Ref 66, Ref 68, and Ref 69. 🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 23:31, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Elections to be held is a different section. I meant the section called "Electoral system".--Launchballer 23:34, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Did the changes.🍗TheNuggeteer🍗 23:53, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
Can't see anything else. I still think the hatnote between the headers should be moved, but this isn't a disqualifier.--Launchballer 17:42, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
