The article is
notable as evidenced by coverage in multiple sources.
The article is of reasonable length, with 1,065 words of readable prose.
The lead is a reasonable relative length at 169 words.
87.3% of authorship is by Grnrchst, with contributions from 24 other users.
Earwig gives a 52.5% chance of copyright violation with an article online at Afrikan Train. It also gives a 50.7% change of violation with a page produced by the All-African People's Revolutionary Party. The majority of this seems to be a eulogy quoted by all the items. The source given in the article is from a printed in 1979, which predates all three.
I note that the reference for this quote is above it rather than at the end. I suggest moving it to the end of the paragraph.
Per
MOS:BLOCKQUOTE, the source should be appended to the introductory sentence, which is what I have done. --

Can you please confirm the term "war heroine" is in the source or amend as
WP:GENDER.
Add the second comma in "As one of the first women in the PAIGC, she quickly became a popular leading figure in the revolutionary movement and was often praised by its leader, Amílcar Cabral".
I see no other obvious spelling or grammar errors.
The infobox image seems appropriate and relevant but is of poor quality. Is there a better one available?
Uploaded a better-quality version of the same image. It's in the public domain in Guinea-Bissau, as over 50 years have passed since its creation and the death of its subject. --

The images have appropriate CC tags.
Spotchecks confirm the sources.
There are two very similar items by Urdang listed. Can you please explain.
One (1975) is a short journal article, the other (1979) is a book. --

The list of Further reading lists Carmen Pereira's entry in rhe Oxford Research Encyclopedia of African History. Is this right?
This is right, as it talks about Silá in the context of Pereira. --
