Find correct name The airport is not listed as João Paulo II anywhere. The airport's own website calls itself simply Ponta Delgada, and has no mention of João Paulo.

Review

Category:History of Portugal: lots to remove there
Template:Regions of Portugal: statistical (NUTS3) subregions and intercommunal entities are confused; they are not the same in all regions, and should be sublisted separately in each region: intermunicipal entities are sometimes larger and split by subregions (e.g. the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon has two subregions), some intercommunal entities are containing only parts of subregions. All subregions should be listed explicitly and not assume they are only intermunicipal entities (which accessorily are not statistic subdivisions but real administrative entities, so they should be listed below, probably using a smaller font: we can safely eliminate the subgrouping by type of intermunicipal entity from this box).

Rafael, first king of Portugal

What the is that picture doing there? I can't find the code to delete it. So someone who can, please do. It is just stupid that someone as put a picture like that there! (sorry to put this first, but I think it is important enough) Folkmann 21:17 Jun 5, 2008 (UTC)

Rule of King Alfonso I

Why this article considers the rule of King Alfonso I only since 1143, when the majority of authors indicates 1128?! Even the Portuguese encyclopedia that I'm seeing at the moment.

Ok:

(...)-1128 - He was a count

1129-1139 - He declared himself the Prince of Portugal

1139-1179 - He declared himself the king of Portugal

1179- King de jure. (the proof is in the Portuguese national archive, Torre do Tombo)

Why 1128? because he ruled it has an independent country and many acclamed him has king.

1129 or 28 was his own first proclamation - possibly nothing more than claiming the position of independent prince, not a proper king

1139 there was another proclamation.

House Avis - Beja

Emanuel I belonged to dynasty Aviz - Beja, so please make the correction. see the portuguese wikipedia .--Regalijan

Typo

Someone please fix the typo in that Portuguese Royal Houses colunm. I will do it myself but I rarely edit anything on wikipedia, so I don't know how to edit that.

The typo is this "Portugueuse House of Habsburg"

Suggestions, inconsistencies, lack of clarity

1. I don't think the image of Manuel II should be shown at the top right of the article. He was no more important than other kings. The image should be an emblem of the Portuguese monarchy or something more general related to it. If a monarch should be shown then Afonso I should be the one to be in the box since he was the first.

2. I think the image of the kings should be in column 2 instead of the last and the family column should be in column 3.

3. Should "Afonso I" really be referred to as "Alphonso I Henriques" in the article? This would reflect a Galician-Portuguese spelling which would be correct but I believe he should be referred to as "Afonso I", possibly followed by the spelling of the language of Portugal in 1139.

4. Afonso V and João II have multiple dates for the beginning and end of their reigns and they seem to alternate for 4 days. This can be confusing and there should be a note to explain that Afonso V abdicated for 4 days, from 11 to 15 November 1477.

5. Was "Edward" really known as "Edward I" and should he really be called "Edward I"? I don't think the cardinal is necessary unless a Edward II of Portugal existed.
