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).

The problem is that your map creates "fake accuracy" with its strong boundary between yellow and non-yellow. I believe you need to remove the yellow block of colour, or at the very least only have a fuzzy cloud. Secondly, the very specific borders in the valleys are not justified. None of your sources can justify either the strong contrast and specificity. The third one does have a similar shape but you have personally selected PART of a region which includes not only the Quadi but also related peoples. In reality archaeologists can not distinguish them.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 21:02, 3 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Removing the yellow block would make the map rather meaningless reducing it to a depiction of the Roman frontier. I followed Komoróczy in the separation of the Quadi and the Marcomanni at the line of the Little Carpathians, he did the same on his map. While agreeing that their settlements cannot be clearly distinguished from one another, he still maintained this geographical separation "having analysed and compared literary and archaeological sources". I did not intend to create an illusion of strong boundaries, on the contrary I hoped that the rounded, unspecific forms convey a degree of uncertainty and are different from modern borders which are generally depicted as clear lines. But I agree that this effect can be strengthened. I uploaded to Commons a new version where the edges of the yellow area were softened and made fuzzy removing the clear outline.

I've self reverted, but I still feel a little uncomfortable that we're making things look more certain than they are. The Quadi and Marcomanni are not generally believed to have been the only two peoples sharing in the same material culture.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 05:31, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much! I think a note can be added about the sources of the map and mentioning the uncertainties. Zello (talk) 06:14, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Belják and Kolník contains two maps about Germanic settlements in the Late Roman Period (stage C3) and in the Early Migration Period (stage D1) while Komoróczy contains one map about Germanic settlements in a wider area. In this map I combined data from these maps indicating the time period summarily as the 3rd-4th centuries, and applied Komoróczy's geographical separation between the Quadi and the Marcomanni. Then I added data about the eastern fringes from Soós and Juhász who wrote about Quadi archeological sites in present-day Hungary. That's how it was put together. For me the most uncertain area is the Upper Hron basin but the map can be revised according to relevant studies about a specific area. Zello (talk) 16:56, 5 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
