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).

Not done: It's not clear what change you want to be made to the article. Also, Wikipedia generally does not state opinions like "best"; instead, it describes factual statements about the opinion. Quadrantal (talk) 16:10, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mirandese name

Mirandese name for portugal in the initial table MdMV or Emdy idk (talk) 18:42, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn’t we put the name of portugal in mirandese (República Pertuesa) in the initial table of the page? It’s a recognised language, and after visiting other pages like Latvia and Spain, that also recognise regional languages, their regional (recognised) languages are in the table too, why’s mirandese not?
