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).

Cyprus, Georgia, and Armenia

Cyprus is NOT part of Asia nor the Middle East. It is a part of Europe and the European Union. With a Greek-Cypriot population of 80%, majority Greek Orothox religion and Greek language there is NOTHING Middle Eastern about this island nation. Please refrain from placing it in Middle East category as it is NOT Middle Eastern. Same goes for Georgia and Armenia. Both are technically part of Europe as they lie north of the Caucus Mountain range. Anything south is considered part of Asia. Georgia is a possible candidate for EU Membership and Armenia has expressed interest in joing the organization within the next decade. Please refrain from adding these two former Soviet Republics with overall Christian populations to the Middle East. If you have something to discuss, do so on this page.

With regards to the Turkish Republic of Nortern Cyprus, no nation on earth recognizes that country except Turkey. Turkey realizes that it's recognition of this country will affect its chances of joining the European Union. --XLR8TION (talk) 20:46, 23 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Turkey is a member of the Council of Europe, NATO, and is a candidate for membership into the European Union. They are technically part of Europe. Please do not involve the Armenian Genocide in this as the UN never said that Turkey was a part of Asia and Armenia is part of Europe also as they are part of the Council of Europe. Religion does not play a role in determining a country's location. Georgraphy and membership in regional organizations does. --XLR8TION (talk) 14:55, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Joining the EU or any political organisation doesn't magically teleport a country in or out of a particular geographical region. Geography isn't politics, and geography isn't culture. Chipmunkdavis (talk) 18:58, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are NOT looking at the facts there. Look at the page of sovereign European states. Turkey is on the list!! That's the Wikipedia article. I might be break an 3RR rule, but at the end, administrators will agree with me that the facts have been layed out and that if Wikipedia's article on Europe includes, Turkey, than it should be listed under Turkey. Look at [2] and see that you're wrong. The definition here is set by Wikipedia's definition of Europe, nit by the UN. Not reverting anything as I have nothing to revert.--XLR8TION (talk) 19:12, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, on October 7th you edited the article [3] and no made NO changes to it by not removing Turkey from the list. Hence you acknowledge back on October 7th that Turkey is part of Europe. Why aren't you recognizing it now? Check edit history and realize the editorial hypocrisy you're showing today.--XLR8TION (talk) 19:17, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's also on the Asia list. Do you have a point? Oh, sorry, of course you do. Nightw 04:03, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
