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.

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).

Spaniards?

I'm pretty sure there where no Spaniards back then. Spain and Portugal only came several centuries later. "Celtiberian tribes" would be more correct, but I'm not sure. I am pretty sure "Spaniards" is definitely incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.22.99.55 (talk) 17:03, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sertorius was backed by both Lusitanians and Celtiberians -Hispanics perhaps?Dejvid (talk) 18:39, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Neither Hispanics nor Spaniards. Celtiberians is the best term to use.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:30, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was the Lusitanians who initially invited Sertorius to Hispania. Celtiberian support only came later. A term is needed that covers both groups. Hence Cetliberian is in correct except in cases where Celtiberians were exclusively involved.Dejvid (talk) 12:20, 24 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I also think that saying Spaniards does not make sense in the context. Hispani would be the proper term.--Xareu bs (talk) 08:09, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Most historians seem happy with Spaniards but I would not object to Hispanics or Hispani. It does seem to to be a little jargonish so I myself don't intend to make such a change.Dejvid (talk) 17:58, 8 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Because the article is open access, I suppose the map can also be uploaded with attribution? Ifly6 (talk) 19:45, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Konrad "A new chronology of the Sertorian war" Athenaeum 83 (1995) pp 157ff seems now to be the standard chronology, per Brennan PRR (2000) p 504 the careful recent work of Konrad on the chronology – and indeed all other aspects – of the Sertorian War has made extended discussion of many previously thorny problems unnecessary. Brennan however objects to Konrad's years (77–73) and prefers 76–72 on the basis that the senate was unlikely to have prorogued the consuls that long. Ibid pp 504–5.
