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).

Source: Boxer, Fidalgos in the Far East (1948), p. 98: "On the homeward voyage, he 'ordered a gentleman of quality to be burnt to death, after finding him guilty of indulging in the unspeakable sin of sodomy'. This surely must be the only instance of an auto-da-fe at sea! Although the stake was the recognized penalty for this crime, the victim's social standing (he was a fidalgo named Francisco Pereira Pinto) got Dom Francisco into trouble, [...]"
Source: Boxer, Fidalgos in the Far East (1948), p. 97: "Modern repairs to the venerable citadel of Saint Paul [the Fortaleza do Monte] have disclosed the blocked-up postern gate. A perusal of Dom Francisco's papers at Evora, shows that the Jesuits retained possession of the citadel after the revolt, and the he evicted them three months later by a ruse at an opportune moment."
@Launchballer: The very next sentence, which details the ruse, is cited, so I thought a cite on the ALT2 hook sentence would be redundant. I've added the cite to the hook in the article anyway. I didn't think a hook about orange would be interesting personally, but eh:
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Alexander Seton (Governor of Berwick) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot19:37, 13 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
New, long enough, and no paraphrasing issues. Looks GTG. Makeandtoss (talk) 17:38, 27 February 2025 (UTC)
@Makeandtoss and Underbar dk: there is a discrepancy between the certainty of the hook and the source, which by stating "This surely must be the only instance..." does not make it certain. Is better sourcing available? See the last sentence of WP:DYKDEFINITE for why it is necessary. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:18, 13 March 2025 (UTC)
Reviewer needed for ALT2. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 03:15, 25 April 2025 (UTC)
