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).

re: {{expansion}}

I am not "somebody more knowledgable about its subject". I posted the {{expansion}} tag because a dictionary definition is inadequate for an encyclopedia. I am hoping to read more about Adamastor the Gigante, esp. when there is no mention of Adamastor in Gigantes. And I think at least some mention of Adamastor the rebel boat -- if the boat's flag was chosen as a template to develop the national flag of Portugal, the boat must be important in some way, and we currently lack such info in Wikipedia. If you are "somebody more knowledgable about its subject", please expansion this Wikipage accordingly. Many thanks. -- PFHLai 20:08, 2004 Aug 4 (UTC)

Thanks for the {{expansion}} tag, I completely agree with it.

As to him being one of the Gigantes, it can either be an omission on that article or a (mine) translation problem from the source wich is in portuguese.

Added something about the cruiser Adamastor. I disregarded that, not noticing that it is related to two of the most important events in portuguese history of the 19th and 20th century. As a matter of fact the republican revolution is quite interesting as it started with a so messed up plan that it's military leader (Cândido dos Reis) suicided in it's first hours. I hope someone starts something like Portuguese Republican Revolution

If not... I'll try to do so, even if not being an expert, as it's quite easy to get good sources since I live in Portugal.--Nabla 00:01, 2004 Aug 5 (UTC)
