First lady of Bolinao

The incumbent mayor of this most famous marine town, which is not only bio-diverse, but the seafoods (sea urchins) are more abundant here than in Dagupan - is Mayor / Dr. Alfonso Celeste. I wonder why his bio has not yet been created. His wife, UST classmate Dra./ Dona Maria Nieves Estrella Dazo Bordador Celeste, of Calvario, Meycauayan, Bulacan, might be a good candidate for Congresswoman for 2010. Mystically though, when she came to Poblacion, Bolinao and built her / family mansion thereat, 2 mega fish kills fatalistically occured and almost depleted the Bangus Bolinao stocks. Now, if witches, wiccans or spirit questors / white witches would be consulted especially Tony Perez of Ateneo de Manila, Bolinao]'s fate might had been affected by her mystic presence, or the curse of the dwarves. PROOF: Susan Roces accused president Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo of stealing the presidency not once but twice. Dra. Vez' mystic presence scientifically cannot be proven to have caused the 2 fish kills, which twice happened, during her regal reign as Bolinao First Lady; but now, Mayor Al her husband is preparing a mega-suit in the coal spill. Just wondering... --Florentino floro (talk) 07:41, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is Bolinao a city yet?

Why is it mentioned in this link, that Bolinao is a city? I don't know either so please check: Bolinao_language note the 'city'. --122.3.242.217 (talk) 12:51, 29 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bolinao, Pangasinan → Bolinao
Bolinao → Bolinao (disambiguation)

– Google scholar search for "Bolinao, Pangasinan" (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&q="Bolinao, Pangasinan"&oq=) reveals numerous results (exceeding 100 results, approx. 190 results) for the municipality of Bolinao as opposed to just 2 results for "Bolinao anchovies" (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&q="Bolinao anchovies"&oq=) and 3 results for "Bolinao anchovy" (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&q="Bolinao anchovy"&oq="). Also, per Google Scholar search, 3 rssults for "Bolinao language" and 1 result for "Wikang Bolinao" (https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&q="Bolinao language"&btnG= / https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0,5&q="Wikang Bolinao"&btnG=). This means the municipality is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the name "Bolinao". Also, raw readership stats per page information shows: 2,757 readers for the municipality and 295 readers for the language. As WP:MOSPHIL now allows the use of <CITYNAME> only convention for uniquely-named towns, perhaps Bolinao, by way of primary topic, passes this convention too, just like the page move for Pateros.

Oppose Ambiguating Bolinao, Pangasinan, doesn't greatly help here. Current set up seems most helpful for readers given varied results of "Bolinao is" test in GBooks In ictu oculi (talk) 12:34, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
~~Oppose. There is Bolinao 52, Bolinao Church, Bolinao language, Bolinao Skull. WP:NOPRIMARYTOPIC. Showiecz (talk) 12:43, 27 January 2021 (UTC)~~[reply]
Support all those entries in the disambiguation page mentioned by above user have their names sourced from the municipality where they are located or originated from, thereby making the municipality a clear primary topic of all these related articles.--RioHondo (talk) 08:29, 29 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support per RioHondo. The town appears to be the primary topic. LSGH (talk) (contributions) 12:31, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Support. I've cleaned up the disambiguation page. As a result it's easy to see that the municipality is not only the primary topic, it's the only topic, and a disambiguation page is not required at all. There is no mention of "Bolinao" at Anchovy, or at Anchovies as food, or at Encrasicholina, and until there is it's more of a red herring (sorry).
