Changes in re March across Samar
The March across Samar apparently does not now have the content expected in the context of a wikilink from here, so I have made this edit to avoid that wikilink. The edit moves mention and wikilinking of the Balangiga massacre from the Resistance section to the American atrocities section, which might ought to be improved by a better wordsmith than I. Re the location of that mention and wikilink, please note that the Balangiga massacre took place five or six months after Aguinaldo's capture & surrender and the dissolution of the First Philippine Republic and, at that point, Vincente Lukban was arguably running a rogue guerilla operation in Samar.

No target errors
Some edit triggered no target errors. Editor deactivated cited books because they were "self-publihed." Still reading the sources, but the first lists its sources. Recommend edit should be addressed here before tripping off errors. Did I miss a comment in the archives? Boo Boo (talk) 02:27, 11 February 2025 (UTC)

Bias in First/Summary Section
Bias is present in the summary section of this page. It's stated war crimes were committed by both sides but then proceeds to only mention American atrocities. Nkarrick (talk) 05:06, 7 February 2026 (UTC)
