Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just modified 17 external links on Portuguese vocabulary. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

This article needs to decide what it's about. Either almost all the examples of Portuguese vocabulary have to be removed per WP:EXAMPLEFARM, leaving only a few which improve understanding of the body content by illustrating some important point being made, or else the title of the article needs to be changed to " List of Portuguese vocabulary words" to reflect the extensive number of words included here. And even then, I'm not so sure that's acceptable, whether sourced or not, since WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE and WP:NOTDICTIONARY. Mathglot ( talk) 01:28, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
Just a reminder that verifiability is a core policy of Wikipedia. From paragraph two of the policy:
All material in Wikipedia mainspace, including everything in articles, lists and captions, must be verifiable. All quotations, and any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation that directly supports the material. Any material that needs a source but does not have one may be removed.
I have begun to remove unsourced material. If you are the author of this material, don't worry, your work is not "lost"; it is preserved in the history, and may easily be recovered. Just make sure to include a citation to a reliable source, and you can just reinsert the material.
Some of the etymological portions of entries look like copy-pastes from a dictionary or other source. According to Wikipedia's licensing requirements:
Never use materials that infringe the copyrights of others. ...
Note that copyright law governs the creative expression of ideas, not the ideas or information themselves. Therefore, it is legal to read an encyclopedia article or other work, reformulate the concepts in your own words, and submit it to Wikipedia, so long as you do not follow the source too closely. (See our Copyright FAQ for more on how much reformulation may be necessary as well as the distinction between summary and abridgment.)
Please avoid WP:Copying text from other sources, or using Wikipedia:Close paraphrase. Summarize the material in your own words, and provide a citation to the source. Thanks, Mathglot ( talk) 22:10, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
