Add topicEarthquake info box
[edit]The quake mentioned was in Oct 2013. Can this box now be removed? Updated?
More generally, what warnings do we need for earthquake-prone or typhoon-prone regions in the Philippines or elsewhere? The paragraph about hazards near the end of Retiring_abroad#Information_sources has links to some maps. Should those links, or more specific links, be given elsewhere as well? Or other maps used?

- I was not aware of the Earthquake safety article until I searched. Looks like this is mostly covered. Pashley (talk) 10:36, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
Panglao airport?
[edit]This article has the text:
- Panglao Island International Airport is under construction, with plans to open in August 2018.
Does anyone have up-to-date information on that? Pashley (talk) 22:51, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
- Originally scheduled for 2021, then August 2018, then delayed to October, latest I have seen is Bohol Panglao Airport opening moved to November 2018. That article says Nov 22 and w:Panglao Island International Airport says Nov 27. Does anyone know the current status? Pashley (talk) 02:08, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
When it does open, both this article and Panglao_Island#By_plane will need updating. Pashley (talk) 14:36, 25 November 2018 (UTC)
- Airlines moving operations to New Bohol Airport in Panglao as old airport closes says it opened Nov 28. Can anyone confirm? Should we update the articles? Pashley (talk) 02:30, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- w:Bohol–Panglao International Airport has been updated, now says it opened on 28th. Pashley (talk) 02:59, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
- Articles updated, but more detail is likely needed. In particular, will there be commercial flights from Asian hubs now that Bohol has an airport that can handle big planes? 03:15, 9 December 2018 (UTC)
Transwiki?
[edit]
Do we want to start a travel topic using the transwiki from w:List of Bohol festivals? --Comment by Selfie City (talk | contributions) 21:03, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
- I doubt it is worth a separate article; that would be a slippery slope since more-or-less every town in the Philippines has at least one fiesta, on its patron saint's day, & big ones like Sinulog are celebrated in many towns. We do not want a festivals travel topic for each province.
- Adding some to province or city articles is fine. A single travel topic for fiestas across the country might be too. Pashley (talk) 01:23, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
Bohollywood?
[edit]I ran across an ad for this, a "see the world in one place" park with replicas of famous sites. It looks fairly awful to me, but it might interest some, so perhaps is worth a link.
