Exclaimation point![edit]

Is there supposed to be an exclaimation point in the title of this article?! aliceinlampyland 14:31, 6 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I checked their site, they do not use the exlamation mark. So I'm moving it to Akbayan Citizens' Action Party. --Revolución (talk) 23:51, 9 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Court Petition vs. HSA[edit]

I added the news about its court petition vs. the HSA.

Neutrality in question?[edit]

A lot of the "Program and Political Agenda" as well as the "Objectives" section sounds directly imported from their platform page here: http://www.akbayan.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=62 Franck Drake (talk) 16:13, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Important info to be added....[edit]

How come the political ideology is only mentioned in the infobox? That's pretty central to the party. And none of the national chairpersons are mentioned? Consider these as suggestions for "next steps" with this article. ɳorɑfʈ^Talk! 21:18, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Akbayan Citizens' Action Party → Akbayan – WP:CONCISE & WP:COMMONNAME. The short name is used more frequently. Same with Lakas-CMD. Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 06:21, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support, as per WP:COMMONNAME. Media uses the shorter name in many reports without mentioning the full name.--Hariboneagle927 (talk) 09:01, 21 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, RJFF! I've removed another chunk. This problem goes right back to the initial version of the article, which was copied from www.akbayan.org (archived version from February 2004). I think the article is now clean, but anyone who notices more suspect content, please ping me. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 00:08, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
