Criticism NPOV

The section on the criticism of PROMESA violates Wikipedia's NPOV standards of having an impartial tone. This section appears to have been written by someone who opposes the relationship between the US and Puerto Rico, or at least the way the relationship is managed. While it does extensively use sources, the tone of the prose tends to be fairly aggressive in its view of US colonialism and oppression of PR residents.

Hello - I edited the "Criticism" section and now it's labelled as "Response"; thought that was fine. I made the section much more neutral and condensed it because it was unnecessarily long and written like an argument. I write this here less to reply to you - you said this two years ago - than to leave a note for people reading this in the future. Oh, and hey, it's exactly a year since you left your comment.

Frankly, this page hardly cover the amount of criticism -both for and against- that has been written about PROMESA. It should be branched out as a separate page. El Alternativo (talk) 23:01, 6 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed accuracy

This article is filled with a bunch of statements, inferences, and synthesis that is not sourced or if it's sourced the source doesn't back up the text or the source was not properly cited. —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 03:44, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Undue weight to Denis' assessment in lead

Why is it important to mention in the lead Denis' assessment that "the political and economic activities of the United States in Puerto Rico have created structural dependency, economic stagnation, and a growing debt problem that led to the creation of this fiscal plan"? —Ahnoneemoos (talk) 03:57, 1 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect legislation information

according to https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/4900, the bill that was signed into law was actually the senate companion bill to this piece of legislation - https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/senate-bill/2328 Likely it should be changed?
