I've created WikiProject COVID-19 as a temporary or permanent WikiProject and invite editors to use this space for discussing ways to improve coverage of the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. Please bring your ideas to the project/talk page. Stay safe, -- Another Believer ( Talk) 17:46, 15 March 2020 (UTC)
Consider changing the men/women colors in the "Cases by age and sex" - I don't want to stereotype things, but women in blue is a little confusing ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:818:DC7F:8B00:F499:7F67:9EA6:81F ( talk) 17:23, 24 March 2020 (UTC)
Hello! I was one of the first people who updated all the information and transmition chains of Covid-19 in Portugal so I just want to make a suggestion. Please consider reviewing the map information. There are some municipalities without confirmed cases that were coloured in the map (for example, Vila Verde) which may lead to some misinformation. It would be a good idea (a little laborious) to, like other countries, show a timeline of the outbreak in Portugal, with the first mesures and actions took by the government.
Yes and No, so I agree with your point that there should be more timeline, but also in my opinion other countries there is a lot, a lot of noise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JHDReis ( talk • contribs) 21:40, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
Anyone willing to add the table(s) like Template:2019–20 coronavirus pandemic data/Spain medical cases/By age and gender based on the data at https://covid19.min-saude.pt/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/47_DGS_boletim_20200418.pdf? Ain92 ( talk) 12:01, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
user Onesignal left unwanted publicity under the page, check: 12:48, 23 April 2020, added:
Lately I've been working on a python script that returns the Summary table and the Cases and Deaths by age and gender graphs. Soon it'll be able to do the same for the other graphs (timeline for confirmed cases and deaths, ICU and daily increase). Eventually it would be possible to make a template for these information (if everyone agrees of course). What is your take on it?

@ Wvictor07: Now i believe i may have broken something on your script. I moved all the graphs to COVID-19 pandemic in Portugal/Statistics, and re-organized them so it becomes easier to read. I also adapted the style of the graphs to be (somewhat) compatible with other COVID pages from other countries. Besides numbers, i notice that this page is lacking on some sections, like the impact the virus has had on the portuguese population -- Hagnat ( talk) 23:25, 12 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Samarantphysics: You should cite the sources when adding new content (not only where the data was taken, but the analysis as well and also who did it). Wikipedia is not a place to generate new insights based on data or research, but rather to reference and cite credible and verifiable sources. If you want more information about it, /info/en/?search=Wikipedia:Simplified_ruleset is a good place to start. -- Wvictor07 ( talk) 12:55, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Wvictor07: Can you point me where I forgot the sources? I am new to editing to wikipedia so I might have messed up in some parts of the text. There was no extra analysis done with the data, I just took them from https://evm.min-saude.pt.
@ Wvictor07: I modified the text removing any parts of personal opinion. I think its ok now. Let me know if not.
@ Wvictor07: I do not know who remove the total number of deaths from the article, but I was wondering whether you don't find it useful. I think its important to have this graph showing an unusual excess in mortality independent of age or cause on March-May in the total population. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samarantphysics ( talk • contribs) 09:32, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
@ Hagnat: Ah ok I didn't see it. Makes sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Samarantphysics ( talk • contribs) 09:44, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
may i suggest some pruning on this article ? Move some graphs to a child page, so it becomes easier for people to focus on text, and less on numbers. There is just so much information that i don't know what to look at, and what i am looking at means. -- Hagnat ( talk) 04:00, 10 May 2020 (UTC)
As the Azores and Madeira are autonomous regions within Portugal, they have implemented measures at the regional level which were not and still are not on the same timeline as the mainland. I think both should get their own pages under their flags, here and on the larger European and global wiki pages. Consider that Gibraltar, Jersey, Guernsey, the Faroe Islands and the Aland islands of Finland all have their own pages. 70.27.170.69 ( talk) 12:56, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
