Milhist Comments
Needs more information about the role he played in the coup of 1975 and an infobox (B2 and B5). Shotgunscoop (talk) 14:50, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you . My background is in translation and politics more than military history, but I will give it as much of a stab as I can Unknown Temptation (talk) 17:03, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I have added details from the 2012 interview. I know that books are better for this kind of thing, but I have no access to them. Unknown Temptation (talk) 17:30, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Great! Also, adding an infobox with a picture will automatically upgrade this article to C-class, if you didn't already know. Shotgunscoop (talk) 17:37, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I have added an infobox with the information that has already been sourced. I don't think there is a public domain photo as there aren't any on foreign versions of this page. On Commons, the page of images of the park where his bust is doesn't show any photos of the bust itself. I'm unaware whether fair use permits an image of a public figure who died only six years ago.

 * I did a bit of searching, and it turns out you can request a copy of a news biography about him from RTP Arquivos (link: https://arquivos.rtp.pt/conteudos/biografia-de-pires-veloso/) if you have a Portuguese citizenship/identity number? ... not completely sure. The terms and conditions of the website say that it provides its files for educational use. Then it's just a matter of taking a screenshot for the infobox picture.

 * Unfortunately I'm not Portuguese, just have lived there before. I will look on the WikiProject if they can help Unknown Temptation (talk) 18:43, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Bummer. Well, good luck, and don't hesitate to ping me if you get that image. Shotgunscoop (talk) 19:23, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
