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).

Help Needed[edit]

Recently, I have had the opportunity of working on the Saint Michael of the Wing site. However, even with the addition of three third party references the site needs additional work. I am hoping that some Portuguese scholars or historians will add additional work and references.

Information Posted has been corrected accordingly after consultation with the Vice-Chancellor for Foreign Affairs.

Dr. Carlos, has done an excellent job in working up the data. However, there is still a need for someone to correct the spelling and English grammar. It will take about 10 minutes but I am at present far too busy. However, on my next visit, it is still wanting, I will jump in and help the problem.

Not 8th of May, not 1147[edit]

The taking of Santarem did not occur on the 8th of May, but the 15th of March as is stated in many contemporary sources. The Order hence was not founded in imminent conjunction with the battle, but a couple of months later. Further, the Order of St James was founded in 1170. If the Order of St Michael was founded to honour Knights of St James, as the cross indicates, then the Order must have been founded 1170-1171 at the earliest. Also, many scholars between 17th-18th Century give the founding year as 1171. The difference in the Gregorian and Julian Calendars are not so big as 24 years so it does not account for the difference between 1147 and 1171. 213.112.9.112 (talk) 22:34, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Second this opinion. The sources from 17th Century and onwards talk about 1171, and it is clear that the taking of Santarem occurred 15th of March. This should be revised. �--Jonar242 (talk) 14:50, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
