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.
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).

... that during World War II, the governor of Portuguese Timor was confined to the Palácio de Lahane by the territory's Japanese occupiers? Source: [translation] " "All that remained was the presence in Dili of [Governor] Ferreira de Carvalho, a captive of the Japanese." The governor was confined to Lahane Palace, unable to communicate with the metropolis through Macau, as the Japanese controlled the radio station." (Diário de Notícias, 8 May 2005)
New enough and large enough expansion. No QPQ. The hook fact checks out (I suspect the translation is from another source) and is quite interesting. There are no textual issues. This page will be ready to approve when QPQ is supplied, Bahnfrend; ping me when this is done. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 04:56, 2 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Sammi Brie: Thanks for the review. I've now done the QPQ. I use google translate to translate foreign language online sources, and did in this case. Google translate works particularly well with certain languages, Portuguese being one of them. Ordinarily, I find the online source using google chrome, and then click the 'translate' button that opens up on the browser. That method has some bugs. In particular, it sometimes repeats some of the translated paras, and omits some of the untranslated paras. If that bug arises, I just copy the untranslated text from the article, and then paste it into the box on the google translate page, which seems not to be affected by the same bug.

Figured out the problem: you quoted the Jornal de Negócios piece and linked to the wrong one here. You're good to go. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:53, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
