Hi Wtmitchell,

Greetings!

Hi Editors,

There is a bit of a problem in one of the entries about the history of the island of Boracay.

The old folks Sofia and Lamberto did develop the island through cultivation but as far as the members of the family are concerned including those settlers close to them, they did not "clear" the island. The source is still the same primary source which is the article itself published in The Sunday Times Magazine in 1987.

The "clearing" happened decades after, particularly in the late 1980s after electricity reached the island and some of the heirs of the islanders and the settlers began selling their lots to outsiders.

Since I was the one who contributed some of the family journals and accounts to Wikipedia I was told to rectify this error.

Thank you.

Boracay

Thanks for your recent contributions to the Boracay article. I've recently fixed a broken link in one item you added to the External links section and then, using your contributions as a starting point and adding some information supported by another source I tracked down, expanded the History section slightly. Cheers. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 23:08, 24 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
