New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen in online English-language sources. Image is freely licensed. QPQ done.
The hook, though, is a sea of blue links and the topic will only be of interest to Philippines political buffs. Can you suggest something else? Perhaps something about his former communist affiliation, although it would be helpful to explain what political affiliation Abang Lingkod is. Yoninah (talk) 20:38, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ALT1: ... that prior to becoming a party-list representative, Joseph Stephen Paduano was the leader of the Revolutionary Proletarian Army-Alex Boncayao Brigade, a communist group that split from the Communist Party of the Philippines? Source: Ex-hit squad leader 'Carapali Lualhati' now a congressman — Emperork (talk) 02:30, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

How about saying it more colorfully? Can we shorten his name to keep it under 200 char?
ALT2: ... that Joseph Paduano, Minority Floor Leader of the Philippines House of Representatives, began his political career in the military wing of the Revolutionary Workers' Party under a nom de guerre? Yoninah (talk) 17:31, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ALT2 should be fine with me. :) — Emperork (talk) 17:35, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. So we need another reviewer to sign off on this. Are you available, Kingsif? Yoninah (talk) 17:40, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'd like to shorten the Congress's name if I could:
ALT3: ... that Joseph Paduano, the Minority Floor Leader of the Philippines Congress, began his political career in the military wing of the Revolutionary Workers' Party under a nom de guerre? Yoninah (talk) 17:43, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Alt2 and 3 are good, hooky, included in article and sourced in line, source fact checked. The term nom de guerre isn't used but it's not a contentious descriptor. Kingsif (talk) 19:18, 28 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Anything that needs to be updated on this one? I'm good w/ Alt3. — Emperork (talk) 23:29, 6 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Emperork: Everything's fine. We're just waiting for someone to promote ALT3. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 18:33, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Net worth

I removed the net worth parameter from the infobox, as it's now deprecated. If anyone wants to add that content elsewhere in the article, you can find what I removed in this edit. Firefangledfeathers (talk) 17:45, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
