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).

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 22 November 2021

Hello. Ronaldo has won 34 trophies and not 32 as mentioned in the article. The uncounted trophies are the FA Community Shield 2008 and the UEFA Super Cup 2016. Although Ronaldo did not play both games the titles must be added as he was part of the team squad, in addition to being collective awards. Enclosed references:

Similarly, Ronaldo was awarded the best player of the 21st century at the Globe Soccer Awards ceremony:

Edit request for section "2022-present: Desire to leave United

The following sentence (the reference for it is 313) needs a minor grammar fix - "take" instead of "taken":

"Ten Hag later named Ronaldo as captain for a league game against Aston Villa on 6 November, saying that Ronaldo was "an important part of the squad, we are happy with him and now he has to taken even more of the leader role".

The number of goals are wrong for example it only takes into account his La Liga goals and not all competitive matches with Real Madrid 2001:56A:F103:9100:3098:C850:B8E9:27F0 (talk) 18:41, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Height should be 1.875 m

 Not done: There is a note in the infobox associated with his height that says it varies between 1.85 and 1.89 depending on which source is used. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 16:51, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

This sentence

After the game, Ferguson agreed to pay Sporting £12.24 million for what he considered to be "one of the most exciting young players" he had ever seen.

I think this can be changed to, " Speaking about ronaldo, Ferguson said "he was one of the most exciting young players" he had ever seen " . the transfer fee to sporting is literally already mentioned in the next sentence , this is why i think it should be changed Matthew is here zero (talk) 23:58, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

The sentence is completely fine. It states the transfer fee and gives Ferguson's view of Ronaldo. The context seems in line. Gooners Fan in North London (talk) 12:43, 4 December 2024 (UTC)
Yes, but if you read the next sentence the transfer fee is stated as well, i think the fee doesnt need to be stated twice Matthew is here zero (talk) 03:04, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
OK. That section was needed to be correct, but everything else is alright. I was a bit confused by the quotation marks and didnt see anything else wrong. Gooners Fan in North London (talk) 04:27, 24 December 2024 (UTC)

Mistake in this sentence

"...is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for and captains both Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr..." I believe there is a mistake in the sentence that could be corrected with "... is a Portuguese professional footballer who plays as a forward for Al Nassr and Portugal, where he serves as captain of both teams. CuraLiuc5 (talk) 15:11, 28 November 2024 (UTC)

While your proposed version is a correct way of rephrasing the sentence, I actually prefer the existing word structure as a less-wordy way of saying he captains and plays forward for both teams. I added a "the" after "both" to rectify the grammatical error. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 19:46, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

Order of Merit Abbreviation incorrect

The Portuguese Order of Merit is incorrect. It should be abbreviated as OM. It says it here in list of post-nominal letters. If that is true, then can anyone edit it? There is a protected edit and I cant seem to edit. Gooners Fan in North London (talk) 16:33, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

According to the article you linked, it is an Officer of the Order of Merit that is abbreviated OM. Ronaldo is correctly identified as a Commander, abbreviated ComM (though an argument could be made that per the manual of style, post-nominals shouldn't be included in the article's lead in the first place).
