[edit] Madeira is in Europe
officially, Madeira is part of Europe, the locals think so, the government think so. Everyone thinks so. In reality, any island belongs to a continent. This article is a real stub with very few information about the islands. Pedro 20:05, 3 May 2004 (UTC)
- I Agree! Nobody in Madeira would ever say thst the islands are in Africa! I also agree with the article being insuficiently devellopped. The Ogre 15:21, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Grammatical Corrections to 'Funchal' paragragph
Today I changed the wording of two sentences to remove errors in the English grammar. One had 'almost more than five-century-old' and the other was 'almost unique'. I hope I am not being too pedantic but just pedantic enough.
[edit] Item pulled because of style
I pulled an edit out of the History section because of its very unencyclopedic tone. The ideas expressed may well belong in the article, but they need to be writtern in an encyclopedic style. The edit was: oops - and we forgot to mention the slave trade, catholic pursecuction of protestants, witches and jews. Oh, and it needs to be sourced. -- Dalbury(Talk) 11:22, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
