Heavily weighted

The article is heavily weighted on the activities of the predominately Mexican American National Farm Workers Association and thus diminishes the role of the predominately Filipino American Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee that started the strike. This needs to be addressed.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:21, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you absolutely. I don't have time to work on it now myself, but I would be happy to discuss ideas about it with you if you're going to work on it.— alf laylah wa laylah (talk) 19:16, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I would just add that the article seems to repeat itself in places, so that should be dealt with as well. Paris1127 (talk) 09:28, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how to do wiki, but I agree. No one knows who Larry Itliong is and everyone has heard of Cesar Chavez. This article just reinforces that misinformation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.72.138.160 (talk) 18:00, 5 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This article is still heavily weighted towards the work of Cesar Chavez and the National Farm Workers Association. As such I have tagged the background section.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 17:51, 3 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Two more recent edits, one by Guest2625 (talk · contribs), and the other by Anomalous+0 (talk · contribs) continue to give significantly more weight to the actions of Cesar Chavez. This continues to unbalance the article.--RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 06:57, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Huh? Just to correct the record, the edit you cited was for the addition of Category:Agricultural labor in the United States, a Category I created recently which doesn't tilt the article in the least. Regards, Anomalous+0 (talk) 09:19, 5 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to suggest that the article emphasizes or at least acknowledges how significant it was that the Delano Grape Strike found common ground between the Filipino and Mexican populations in Delano-- the tendency of farm owners to pit these populations against each other was a reality that kept strikes during this era from developing into substantial social change. Furthermore, a documentary which covers Larry Itliong's involvement in the strike, "Delano Manongs," was released and this resource could help supplement the article where previous Wikipedians said it was lacking. --Tmsloan (talk) 02:39, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of Cesar Chavez

The picture of Cesar Chavez should be removed as its from 1974 and according to the article the Delano grape strike ended in 1970. There's got to be a picture of Cesar Chavez out there from the actual strike that can be used, or if not maybe one of the strike itself. Since that's what the article is ultimately about and not Cesar Chavez per say. --Adamant1 (talk) 08:10, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi everyone! What do folks think about using this picture (found here) (http://reuther.wayne.edu/node/138) of both Dolores Huerta and Larry Itliong? As an aside: In general, I think this article should also further discuss Huerta's role -- I agree that we should work to further stress the role of Filipino organizers in this article; and it seems the involvement of Chicanas in the strike has also been understated. --Schoeld (talk) 03:59, 17 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Revisions Proposal

Hello! I'm Anne, and I am planning to revise this article. You can find my proposal of revisions and stay up-to-date with my edits by going to my user page and following the link to my sandbox. I will be primarily addressing the unbalanced viewpoint and add information concerning Filipin@ involvement in the Delano grape strike. I will also be doing a few organizational revisions and expanding more on the impact that the Delano grape strike had not only on the labor movement but also beyond the fields. I welcome any and all feedback throughout this process! AMRara (talk) 18:16, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Improvements

Hello all. If revisions are made, make sure to use a neutral tone & limit use of passive voice. I've read some of the coming contributions and these contributions will help reintroduce the Filipino perspective back into the narrative. By including the Filipino perspective, this article is more balanced & discusses how both sides were impacted. I would also try to edit the lead section and sections throughout to make sure the Filipino perspective is addressed. Also, linking to other articles would be a great way for readers to reference something mentioned they might not be familiar with; I would also include more images to help make the article more pleasing to the eye. Overall, good article, looking forward to the coming revisions. Mgregg21 (talk) 04:14, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Review Comments

Hello Anne! I think you did a great job at expanding on and introducing details that were already present in the article. I loved the background section you added; definitely added context to the situation. I suggest adding a picture and some blue links. Additionally, I would think about maybe putting a timeline somewhere in the article. Overall, excellent job!EliGamez (talk) 05:07, 31 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
