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).

The article refers to the percent of "words" that are affected by the spelling changes. Are those %s measured on types or tokens? (These terms are used by linguists: the word "the" in English would count as just one type, and would therefore be a vanishingly small % of the words in English. But since it is extremely common, its token count would be much higher, and so its token frequency as a % is much higher.) Also, does this distinguish the various inflected forms of a lexical item? I don't know Portuguese, so I'm forced to use a Spanish example: if "word" means "lexical item", then all the forms of 'hablar' ("to speak") count as a single word. But if "word" means "word forms", then not only 'hablar', but also 'hablo', 'habla'... 'hablaremos'... etc. count as individual words. Similarly the singular and plural forms of nouns would or would not count as different "words" (and for adjectives, the gender x number combinations). Mcswell (talk) 17:17, 2 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
I cannot answer for whoever wrote the article, but when they say "words", I am pretty sure they mean dictionary entries as in lexical items. Therefore, "falar" (the Portuguese equivalent to Spanish "hablar", both derived from Vulgar Latin fabulare) and all of its inflected forms (falo, falei, falarei, falava, etc.) count as a single word.2804:431:C7DB:1256:1997:7DC0:8A41:B160 (talk) 23:42, 25 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
