• 81 - struggled with Inoke Takiveikata (Vice-President) - being VP of a country sounds impressive, but it's a mainly ceremonial position and there is at least one other much higher profile (jailed!) senator of the same name, so searching is hard. Primo "Olong" Avestruz Villasin proves that web based coverage of 1960s Phillipines politics isn't too good yet. Are they referencable, or should they be redirected to their political position articles (which also aren't well referenced? Would love to see the BRB hit 2000, (2018 now) but that's me done for the night. The-Pope (talk) 16:22, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I managed to dig up some meagre sources for Vice President Inoke Takiveikata of Fiji. I'm afraid the Phillipine congress person has me completely stumped. Couldn't find a thing. As much as it hurts, per WP:V, if we can't source it, then we shouldn't have an article on it. -- Whpq (talk) 19:03, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • I can find a few tantalising hints. Someone called Primo A. Villasin seems to have been involved in a lawsuit in the 60s [1] and they appear in this phone book [2]. Hut 8.5 20:11, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• 66/2007! - I looked at the Phillipine legislator as well, came up with nothing. But I am getting a bit tired of the vanity BLPs this month, e.g., "Diane Wittry has been called a role model for women conductors throughout the United States."[3]. Gotta love the role model linking there. hehe.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 19:23, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• 60/2001. I want to get it under 2000, but then i see something like Ricardo Welch aka The Gladiator, and hope its a hoax, but find its not.--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 20:29, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  It's time to party like it's..... --joe decker^{talk to me} 20:52, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• 57/1998? Remember when we had individual months with over 1000 uBLPs?!--Milowent • ^talkblp-r 20:55, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  Heh, seems like forever ago, but it was really only four months back.... --joe decker^{talk to me} 20:58, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

• 53/1994 - M ... the current long counts make it feel like we're going back in time.  :) --joe decker^{talk to me} 21:12, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
