Comment: AGF nomination, as I don't speak Portugese and Google Translate can only go so far.

New enough and long enough, neutral, well cited, Earwig is happy, and the hook checks out from the source, QPQ done, ready to go. NB, to save making a saga out of this I have taken the liberty of adding "much of" into the hook, to reflect "grande parte do". We do not wish to suggest the king donated *all* of his fish and game, that would be too much to ask. Moonraker (talk) 18:17, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this, and added several "citation needed" tags to quotes and other factual material where an inline citation is needed. The last paragraph lacks any cite, per Rule D2. Yoninah (talk) 13:14, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. I think I have addressed the citations issues. I believe that, to be accurate, the lead in should read "... that King Carlos I of Portugal donated much of the fish caught by his yacht and game shot on his estates to a soup kitchen founded by Maria Luísa de Sousa Holstein?" Too long? Roundtheworld (talk) 15:08, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Roundtheworld: It's not too long (163 characters), but it's clunky. If he wasn't the one who caught it, maybe we could add on his estates to ALT0? Yoninah (talk) 17:38, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

I don't understand "ALTO". You could replace "estates" with "hunts", which would make it clear that he was involved.Roundtheworld (talk) 17:54, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Roundtheworld: "ALT0" refers to the first hook above. Later alts are numbered ALT1, ALT2, etc. So do you want to run with this wording?
ALT2: ... that King Carlos I of Portugal donated much of the fish and game caught on his estates to a soup kitchen founded by Maria Luísa de Sousa Holstein? Yoninah (talk) 18:51, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

@Yoninah:. Not really, because the fish was caught at sea not on the estate. I'd prefer ALT3: ... that King Carlos I of Portugal donated much of the fish and game caught on his hunts to a soup kitchen founded by Maria Luísa de Sousa Holstein? Alternatively, let's miss out the fish and go with ALT4: ... that King Carlos I of Portugal donated much of the game shot during his hunts to a soup kitchen founded by Maria Luísa de Sousa Holstein?Roundtheworld (talk) 18:59, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
Whatever you're happy with. Restoring tick for foreign-language source for ALT4. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 19:05, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
