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).

Duarte Barbosa's descriptions in the early pages of his book immediately connects to the then social situation of eastern Mozambique and adjoining islands. The article needs a clear mention of this fact.--ViswaPrabha വിശ്വപ്രഭ (talk) 22:27, 9 May 2010 (UTC)


"João Serrão was brought by natives who wanted to exchange him for weapons, but was left behind, being saved only the pilot João Carvalho." This sentence is hard to understand. Also, thewhole episode should be summarized better in Magellan's own article - although already after his death, it is important for the readers to understand the fate of the expedition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.131.125.77 (talk) 19:58, 10 July 2016 (UTC)

Correct historical names

Please caution the clown who wrote the article to change the place names to the historically known forms of their names. Kozhikode was known as Calicut, Kannar as Cannanore &c. in the contemporary historical records of those times. Wikipeida is try to promote the local linguistic aspirations of alocal vernacular social leadership in these low-class areas by allowing such naming. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:204:D104:A8C8:D9BC:7E1B:9240:64CF (talk) 08:08, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
