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).

"Last public appearance" section

I admit that I initially misread this section to mean that it was Castro that the medium had claimed to contact, but even now that I see I was mistaken, there is no reason for this section. It is completely trivial and has no relevance to Castro's life or achievements. Having a separate section gives this undue weight. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 01:34, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It probably shouldn't have it's own section, yes, but it seems fairly important, in the fact that there was a pretty big outcry over the airing of the episode because it had him in it. Silver seren^C 02:05, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure that in the context of a 35 year career it is at all important. Besides, two of the sources appear to be merely reporting on the original report in "i", but I don't read Portuguese, so I may be mistaken. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 04:35, 25 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Activist

I was more than a little amused by the mention that he was a homossexual rights activist :) He was not considered as such during his lifetime, nor did he consider himself to be one. As a matter of fact, he did use to knock on homossexual people and their rights from time to time, and used disparaging language such as "bichonas", "paneleiras" (f*ggots, c*cksuckers), from what I recall. I suggest we remove this mention unless there is a (I think very unlikely) solid source out there. 87.196.236.133 (talk) 03:04, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and if you need any translation, I'm available, just drop me a word on this page. Cheerio! 87.196.236.133 (talk) 03:06, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
