However, I would like to (for the purposes of the article) stay as general as possible, dividing only as pieces are available (eg. if all the central region pieces are from Panay, then no need to divide Visayas further). I do not feel we can get a proper idea of how to organize the section more specifically until we get a better idea of what pieces can be contributed.

Agreed in general IMHO Fred
1 Speaking of display and cataloguing the specimens, should we have
Kris from North, Center and Southern regions all together, right? This way we are contemplating both the
Type and
Regional modes. Same for
Bolo, etc.
2 I feel that the article should cover (in general mode) the entirety in a balance between what is on display and what is not. It is a rare opportunity to have it printed. But this is just a non specialist speaking out of mere intuition of what I would like to be reading as part of the public.
Please correct me if I am wrong
Oh the pictures, if you are willing to send the old books we will scan and return immediately.
Thanks
