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).

Section on Kosovo[edit]

I'm moving to Kosovan–Portuguese relations. LibStar (talk) 07:52, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have added back a couple of notes. Portugal's involvement in the (then) Province of Kosovo preceded the Kosovo declaration of independence from Serbia and is clearly relevant to their relationship with Serbia. Aymatth2 (talk) 11:56, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kingdom of Yugoslavia[edit]

There is an anomaly here. http://www.mfa.gov.rs/Policy/Bilaterala/Portugal/basic_e.html says that relations with Portugal were interrupted in 1920. I can't see any reason for that, think I saw a source mentioning a Portuguese mission in 1928 that I forgot to note, and found a source that seems to say Portugal recognized the Yugoslav government in exile after 1941, which I added. Is this an error on the MFA website? Aymatth2 (talk) 18:58, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Error or something?[edit]

The Economic section say that "In the January-October 2006 period exports from Serbia to Portugal were US$7.3 million while exports to Portugal were worth US$5.4 million.", Shouldn't it be from Portugal? I would have just changed it, but the source says it the same way. As it reads now it says gives two different numbers fro exports to Portugal and none for the other way around. Spiesr (talk) 21:46, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good catch. I changed the text to add the two numbers together, maybe more accurate. Usually government sources like this are reasonably reliable, checked by many layers of bureaucracy, but this one seems sloppy. See previous section. Aymatth2 (talk) 23:53, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
