[edit] Request for Comment

I think that this article is written in a neutral way, saying only true facts, and without libelous content. But because the article names a person and serious criminal charges against him, just to be on the safe side I would like to have confirmation that everything is all right with the article.

Comments

• It seems pretty neutral; I can't comment on the verifiability of the sources, since I don't speak the language. Notability may be an issue, however. Has this received extensive media attention? I Googled the name but I really can't tell because of the language barrier. Cap'n Walker 20:04, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment. This case was one of the major Portuguese news this summer until now, maybe only second to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Jayme 21:55, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

• I saw your request for comment. I had not heard of this case before. Your article seems to me to be a summary of what was said in the court case. It seems neutral to me, but I am also unable to read the original documents. I recommend you consider adding a section about the media coverage of the trial. If the case is controversial, I recommend you also add a section about the controversy. - VisitorTalk

Thanks for your comment. I added a section about the media coverage and a section about criticism related to the maximum penalty of 25 years in Portugal. Jayme 12:32, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
