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).

This article was created by a Portuguese editor. The English in the article was not very good and not much effort had been made in the past to correct it.
I have rewritten the article to make it easier to understand and to remove some "peacock terms". Describing making bread out of water, salt, eggs and flour as "alchemical" is an obvious exaggeration.
I have removed the geographical coordinates from this article. The article mentions Chaves but it is not an article about Chaves. There are no geographical coordinates in the articles about Cheddar cheese and Champagne (wine), they don't belong on articles about foods named after regions. --Simon Peter Hughes (talk) 06:10, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
If anyone knows the origin of the name folar as applied to this bread (may require knowledge of Portuguese source matter), this would be a nice addition to the page.
Google Translate doesn't even recognize folar it as a Portuguese word. Bing Translate translates it as leafing (a cognate of foliage).
But in what sense is this Easter bread "leafing" or "folar"? Was it traditionally decorated with leaf shapes, symbolizing the springtime leafing of trees at Easter? (Portugal is in the northern hemisphere, so Easter is celebrated in the spring)Does "leafing" refer to a layered way of making the bread? Or is there some other significance?
Perhaps someone can find a source to cite (perhaps Portuguese) explaining this.
