Draft:Asysysy

Hello, Hotwiki,

I know you keep up on Filipino TV series so I'm hoping you could review this article for me. It was just moved to Draft space and blanked. If the article creator had done that, we would have deleted that as a CSD G7 but that is not the case here. I just hope that it's not another editor wanting to put their own version of this article in main space. Can you offer your opinion? Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:04, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: I already reported the editor that moved the article, here.[1] It looks like a vandal edit with the name change and blanking. Hotwiki (talk) 07:31, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I just saw your note at ANI. I'm not sure it's a big enough problem for ANI. Lots of editors redirect or draftify articles that were in main space. This is only unusual in that they blanked the article. But they aren't a new editor, they have been editing for a few years now so I don't think it's vandalism. I see this behavior when another editor has written their own version of an article they want to move into main space. So, they try to get rid of the existing article in a variety of ways, usually by redirecting. But it happens more often with films than TV series. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 07:36, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: the reported editor changed the article name to "Asysysy", which is completely unrelated to the subject. The TV series have also finished airing its run back in March 2025, for the article to suddenly get moved to a draft article and get blanked makes me question the motive behind such move from that editor. I don't recall the reported editor having vandal edits in the past, so I was confused why they did that. I reported it to ANI, as the editor gave no reason for their doing. I was hoping someone could fix and move back the article to mainspace. Glancing at their talk page, they don't seem to communicate with warnings and talk page message from other editors as well. Hotwiki (talk) 07:45, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Can I move back the article to the mainspace? since the move by Jaeklmn was undiscussed in the first place. Hotwiki (talk) 09:04, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I didn't know you were waiting for me. I think you have more content creation experience than I have so use your best judgment on whether it is ready for main space. I mean, you've been an editor for 19 years! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:30, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have another query which is what brought me back here. Category:Upcoming Philippine films is an empty category that is due to be deleted in a few days (CSD C1 sit for 7 days before they are deleted). It's hard to believe that we have no articles on Filipino films for the rest of 2025 or 2026 so if you know of any, please assign them to this empty category. Thanks. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:30, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Liz:, I don't think I could contribute regarding Wikipedia articles for upcoming Filipino films. I don't remember contributing (in a major way) when it comes Wikipedia articles for Filipino films, as I mostly edit TV Wikipedia articles when it comes to Philippine pop culture. Hotwiki (talk) 08:04, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
That being said, I've located 3 Wikipedia articles, that I've placed under Category:Upcoming Philippine films. Hotwiki (talk) 08:09, 10 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz, shall we expect to delete this draft redirect Draft:Asysysy? We all know that this kind of redirect is certainly unrelated to this subject because of this disruptive behavior by Jaekimn. Migfab008 (talk) 01:51, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Migfab008: drafts are usually deleted after six months of no activity. Hotwiki (talk) 02:06, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Hotwiki ok. We need to wait until December 2025 to permanently delete this because of this disruptive behavior. Migfab008 (talk) 02:49, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest try searching in Wikipedia, if editors can nominate drafts for deletion. I have only nominated an article for deletion before (if I remember correctly), not a draft. Hotwiki (talk) 06:21, 12 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre Opening Theme

Hello, Hotwiki. I noticed that you left a comment on my talk page regarding the lack of citation for the opening theme. However, just like for the 2016 series, there is no official citation for this. The closest one is the song used in the OBB which is a modified version of "Tadhana" by Bayang Barrios. Tim 678 (talk) 03:54, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

If it is the "official" opening theme of a "notable and high profile" Philippine tv series, I don't think its impossible to find a citation for it. Research it. Hotwiki (talk) 04:05, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for taking quite a while. GMA released an article on "Bagong Tadhana" by Julie Ann San Jose which seems to be this iteration's OST. However, this is not the song used in the show's opening billboard (as of today, at least). Not sure what to do next. Tim 678 (talk) 08:42, 30 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reference? Hotwiki (talk) 11:16, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Atasha Mulach

Hello, i edited it because Atasha is not appeared since late february, because of PH adaption of Bad Genius, thank you, Xam D'Monty (talk) 15:08, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Xam D'Monty: please provide a reliable reference when you are declaring a cast member, as a former cast member. These edits are just unnecessary when you added a "citation needed" template to your unreferenced edits, like as if you're ordering readers/editors to find a reference to your unreferenced edits.[2][3] Hotwiki (talk) 15:19, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Update Beauty Empire

@Hotwiki: Please update the article and add the episode table since 5 episodes are out on Viu as of the moment with their episode titles. I tried requesting on the article talk page but the other users didn't understand what I meant so they declined. Here's the source: https://www.viu.com/ott/ph/en/vod/2631275/Beauty-Empire 203.177.220.207 (talk) 02:34, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Change of release dates

Hi, Hotwiki. You change the series, first of Prinsesa ng City Jail and second My Ilonggo Girl on premiere date on the List of GMA Network original drama series, because why not you first of My Ilonggo Girl, example:

My Ilonggo Girl (January 13–March 20, 2025) and

Prinsesa ng City Jail (January 13–June 21, 2025)

→↓ to

Prinsesa ng City Jail (January 13–June 21, 2025) and

My Ilonggo Girl (January 13–March 20, 2025)

Thankyou. 158.62.19.3 (talk) 08:15, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Add birthday date of Eddie Gutteriez from a source please

Add birthday date of Eddie Gutteriez from a source please Xam D'Monty (talk) 17:34, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't even edit the Wikipedia article of that actor. Hotwiki (talk) 18:38, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lead cast vs. Main cast

Hello. What is the difference between "Lead cast" and "Main cast"? And why is "Lead cast" used in drama articles (like Binibining Marikit, Encantadia Chronicles: Sang'gre), even if this is only one person? Scarlet Violet 13:29, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lead cast = lead role. Main cast is the regular cast of the series, which excludes guest roles and cameos. Hotwiki (talk) 13:37, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Hotwiki. How do you identify who the lead role is in a series? - Arcrev1 (talk) 09:59, 15 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Voice Kids (Philippines)

Hello. You said to refrain gmanetwork.com or anything related to GMA Network and their shows. What should be the necessary reference to be considered since the network's website and local newscast have confirmed it? Anthony1520Jones (talk) 13:40, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Try googling the show and see if third-party media like The Philippine Star, Inquirer Bandera, Philippine Daily Inquirer, LionhearTV, PEP, The Manila Times, Abante, Manila Bulletin and SunStar (to name a few) posted articles about the show. That way, article reviewers and editors won't flag the article for using so many first party references. Hotwiki (talk) 15:05, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Beauty Empire

Since this article is locked can you be the one updating the number of episodes on both Viu and GMA and update the episode list since Viu as of now uploaded episode 30 because not a lot of registered users are updating this article. 139.135.78.230 (talk) 02:51, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure! Hotwiki (talk) 17:30, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You forgot to update the episode list. 139.135.78.231 (talk) 02:06, 7 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't forget anything. I'm not interested making an episode list, not backed up by a third party reference. Hotwiki (talk) 04:08, 7 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I meant the episode list that's already there. As of now it's still episode 15 it should already be episode 32 in the episode list. Can you be the one updating it because no registered user is updating the episode list. 139.135.78.231 (talk) 06:14, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Nope. I'm not using the Viu link, to list down episode titles and airdates I'm not even sure about, since airdates aren't even mentioned in the Viu link. Hotwiki (talk) 06:30, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure the titles are already there. but if the schedule is always monday to thursday it's easy to know when the exact date of each episode is if you just calculate it. Unless Viu announces a change of schedule I think example episode 32 is August 8, 2025 since it was uploaded last night so next episode will be on a monday. I think common sense is the key here. 139.135.78.231 (talk) 06:52, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to. Hotwiki (talk) 07:37, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
