Palawan should be moved here[edit]

Palawan should be moved here from Western Visayas. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Image of me (talk • contribs) 09:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Considering Executive order No. 429, it doesn't seem so. In fact, considering that the page refers to itself in some places as MIMAROPA and in other places as MIMARO, is located at MIMAROPA, and that MIMARO redirects here, barring objection I plan to move the page to MIMARO, make MIMAROPA a redirect, and normalize internal self-references to the MIMARO name. Objections? Comments? -- Boracay Bill 06:20, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've scrapped my plan to move this article, as I'm now aware of AO129. Added info about this to the article. -- Boracay Bill 00:35, 20 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're on to something here...[edit]

This page should be deleted and someone start a page called 'MIMARO' , I think I would, but how do I remove the redirect?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.2.82.202 (talk) 11:05, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Ph seal romblon.png[edit]

Image:Ph seal romblon.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

MIMAROPA → Mimaropa — WP:ALLCAPS. This was listed at WP:RM and deleted without a full discussion. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 13:39, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. The all-caps version appears to be in common usage ([1]), and this falls under the exception for acronyms and initialisms noted at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters)#All caps. Ucucha 13:44, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. WP:ALLCAPS does not apply in this case and falls under the exception. --seav (talk) 13:59, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Withdrawn I was apparently mistaken. Thanks for your time. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 14:54, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MIMAROPA → Mimaropa – WP:Commonname and WP:Concise. Apart from being easier to read and see, the media has begun using the lower-cased name over the upper-cased one as seen with these two articles. Also consistent with Calabarzon. Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 03:54, 4 February 2016 (UTC)--Relisted. Tiggerjay (talk) 08:42, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Support per WP:CAPS and usage see The Stanard Feb 1 2016, not per WP:Concise how is that relevant? In ictu oculi (talk) 07:36, 4 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support per WP:OFFICIAL and as per majority of WP:RS such as those in Google news.--RioHondo (talk) 03:39, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Support per reasons listed above and for consistency, the neighboring region of Calabarzon is also an acronym, yet it is spelled out on Wikipedia in normal case. — Abrahamic Faiths (talk) 16:20, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Relisting comment relisting to get insight from editors of the previously failed move. As recent as 2015 this page was moved without discussion or consensus... Tiggerjay (talk) 08:42, 13 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
