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).

Coat of Arms edit

Latest comment: 17 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Why does the coat of arms have both a Muslim and a Christian on it? Is it honoring the city's past, or some other reason? Stallions2010 21:16, 1 May 2006 (UTC).Reply

These symbols are also on the CoA of the Concelhos of Albufeira, Alcoutim, Aljezur, Loule', Monchique, Portimao, Tavira - well I won't list them but 13/16 of them anyway. The Silves CoA combine the arms of the second to fourth portuguese kings (1185-1245) and the traditional Algarvan symbol of the two king’s heads (twice), I guess it's remembering the Algarve's moorish history. --Daeve 22:02, 17 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
