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).

Rename "Persian" to Safavid

Calling it "Persian" is a misnomer here, I would rename this to be called the Safavid empire. 2600:4040:285D:1800:DCED:3B71:6150:9BED (talk) 20:03, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Portuguese–Safavid wars → ? – Portugal did not formally declare war on the Safavids multiple times during this period. These should be described as "conflicts" rather than wars. Kolno (talk) 13:45, 17 May 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Frost 06:38, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's a descriptive title. I don't think a formal declaration of war is necessary for there to be a war. Srnec (talk) 03:25, 18 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
