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).

Overall: New enough and long enough, neutral, well cited, Earwig ok, and hooks check out from the source. Review not done, but from what I can see this is only your second DYK nomination, so below 5 credits and not mandatory. Maybe a small suggestion on the alt hook (below), but should be ok as is too.

ALT1a: ... that Portuguese HIV researcher Odette Ferreira flew from Lisbon to Paris with test tubes of blood in her coat to maintain the right temperature ~~for research~~ and test them at the Pasteur Institute?

Comment: This is my first DYK review, a second opinion to confirm assessment would be good. Alan Islas (talk) 15:01, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

ALT1b: ... that Portuguese HIV researcher Odette Ferreira flew from Lisbon to Paris with test tubes of blood in her coat to maintain the right temperature to test them at the Pasteur Institute? is fine with me Roundtheworld (talk) 17:23, 7 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That works for me, thanks. Alan Islas (talk) 16:46, 13 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I came by to promote this. I added a "citation needed" tag to verify one claim, and tagged the lead for insufficiently summarizing the article. Yoninah (talk) 16:44, 19 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for comments. Citation added. Lead expanded, minor improvements made and low-resolution, fair-use photo added to Infobox.Roundtheworld (talk) 08:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Restoring tick per Alan Islas' review. Yoninah (talk) 20:00, 20 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
