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).

Yes, it seemed that the "assassination" part of death section seemed to be purposefully omitted. It's been fixed now. Peacekeepurwar (talk) 21:43, 25 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Wow, it really seems like Cabral's rule was a triumph. No wonder there is not a critical word about his governance on the main page.
Once “liberation” was achieved in 1974, a second human tragedy unfolded, costing at least 10,000 further lives as a direct result of conflict. By 1980, rice production had fallen by more than 50 percent to eighty thousand tons (from a peak of 182,000 tons under the Portuguese). Politics became a “cantankerous din of former revolutionaries” in the words of Forrest.[31] Cabral’s half-brother, who became president, unleashed the secret police on the tiny opposition—five hundred bodies were found in three mass graves for dissidents in 1981.[32] A tenth of the remaining population pulled up stakes for Senegal.[33] The Cabralian one-party state expanded to fifteen thousand employees, ten times as big as the Portuguese administration at its peak.[34] Confused Marxist scholars blamed the legacies of colonialism or the weather or Israel.[35]
Things have gotten worse. Guinea-Bissau has a more or less permanent UN peacekeeping force and continues to suck up millions in aid as the “continuadores de Cabral” squabble under what the World Bank calls “continuing political disarray.”[36] Today, in per capita terms, rice production is still only one-third of what it was under the Portuguese despite forty years of international aid and technological advances. The health transition, meanwhile, slowed considerably after independence. By 2015, the average Guinea-Bissauan was living to just fifty-five, meaning gains of just 0.3 years of extra life per year since independence, less than half of the 0.73 extra years of life per year being gained in the late colonial period. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:1514:35C:35FA:97F1:EAB:BEE7 (talk) 01:23, 25 July 2019 (UTC) Reply
