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).

Two Things[edit]

Does anyone know when he was born?

Can someone provide a different pronunciation for those of us not firmiliar with the IPA.

I'll try: Gil (the G is like the "j" in French word "je"); Eanes (Yah-nesh; the "a" is like the "u" in fun; the "e" is like the French word "que"). Joao pais 02:41, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Gil Eanes appears in a 1975 color motion picture[edit]

Documentary color film footage from summer or autumn of 1975 appears to show the Gil Eanes underway at sea, aiding in the evacuation of Portuguese Angolans from soon-to-be independent Angola. The footage, in the form of a Flash movie, is at http://meusescapes.blogspot.com/2008/05/angola-minha-terra-momentos-de-grandes.html#!/tcmbck , and the ship first appears at about minute 14:00.
