Notes

[edit]

Hi! I have a question - will you be creating a new article for the Salcedo Community Market or will you be expanding the section on the main article?

I'm guessing that you'll be creating a new article for the market, so my recommendations here are this:

Make sure that you have a lot of coverage that specifically focuses on the market, as opposed to coverage that covers the market as part of the park. The key thing here is that you need to show where this market is independently notable outside of the park and that this can't be summarized in the main article for the park. So for example, something like this source would be good to use. If you can find book sources other than travel guides that cover the market, that would be good as well - just make sure that the publisher is reliable. Avoid self-published sources unless they're routinely seen as a reliable source by other reliable sources. You also want to make sure that the source focuses on the market as opposed to mentioning it in passing in relation to something else other than the park, such as the source focusing on a specific business or person. This is an example of a source that focuses on a specific businessperson rather than on the market, so it wouldn't be a good source to establish notability for the market.

I'm a little concerned that there may not be enough coverage out there, however that said I will note that I was only able to search English language sourcing. It would definitely be a good idea to search for coverage in Filipino or Tagalog (or any language of the Philippines), if you or someone you know is fluent enough to do a search. Non-English language sourcing is still usable. It will have the same requirements as an English language source, but it won't be disqualified just because it's not in English.
