You are invited to participate in The World Destubathon. It's currently planned for June 16-July 13, partly due to me having hayfever during that period and not wanting to run it throughout July or August in the hotter summer and will be run then unless multiple editors object. There is currently $3338 going into it, with $500 the top prize. As 250 countries and entities is too much to patrol, entries will be by user, but there is $500 going into prizes for editors covering the most countries. Sign up if interested! ♦ Dr. Blofeld
Requesting input - Sultanate of Sulu
Hello editors from Tambayan Philippines. I am requesting help with the article Sultanate of Sulu (see talk page for more info). It has been claimed that this historical state still exists in some form to this day, but I am not well-versed on this subject, which is why I'd like input from more users on this discussion. I would have posted this to Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Philippine history task force, but apparently that project is semi-active, which is why I am asking here. Thanks!

COMELEC decisions
Can we hold off adding someone/a party was disqualified until the judgment has become executory? For COMELEC purposes, a decision by the division is not executory not until 5 days after judgement, and if there's no motion for reconsideration to en banc. Most aggrieved parties avail the motion, so it's improper to present these people/parties as "disqualified". If COMELEC en banc dismisses the motion for reconsideration, the aggrieved party can still go to the Supreme Court, but usually the COMELEC doesn't wait for the TRO; this is the time we can declare that the decision is executory.
For example, 2025 Philippine House of Representatives elections and in 2025 Pasig local elections, the infamous Ian Sia was denoted as "disqualified" a few days before the election. What happened was a COMELEC division disqualified him, but on election day, the judgment was not yet executory, so he can still be voted upon. He lost so it is moot. This also happened now for Duterte Youth and Joel Uy (vs. Benny Abante)

- This is explained by George Garcia:
The decision of the division is not final, and therefore, there are many times when the decision of one member changes during the en banc, especially if there will be an explanation on why the division’s decision was wrong.
- The Inquirer story also details this on the part after that quote.
- In articles, it's best to say that "COMELEC x division disqualified person/party; person/party can appeal". Howard the Duck (talk) 13:44, 19 June 2025 (UTC)
