Outline of knowledgeOutline of knowledge, categorized as a "list-article" is linked on Portal:Contents, which makes it a significant article on Wikipedia. This article gets about 120 pageviews daily, but its quality appears unsatisfactory to me. Wikipedia's the last major encyclopedia on Earth, so it's the only organization responsible for creating an outline of knowledge. Outline of knowledge suffers from lack of contribution, and I don't think I know what exactly to do about it. I know you realize the value of knowledge organization, let's do something about the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ambujshukla2004 (talk • contribs) 17:25, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
.....Yes, but could invention be studied as knowledge...I am not trying to be clever, but isn't knowledge also like wave particle duality and the life cycles of galaxies-all inclusive and continuous; that we could 'know' our place in it, in an outline...respects.Arnlodg (talk) 20:33, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

Hello everyone and welcome to the 7th issue of the Wikipedia Scripts++ Newsletter:
A questionAt Portal:Egypt I've tried to fix the edit link for the Intro to go directly to the Intro page, but haven't found a fix. Tried "noedit=yes" etc., but not working. Tried tweaking the Intro page itself, but no go. The edit link presently goes directly to the Egypt article. North America1000 19:08, 4 July 2019 (UTC) Also, at the Egypt portal, when going to the page or purging the page, there is a "The time allocated for running scripts has expired" error that occurs from time to time, obliterating the page. Any way to fix this? Lastly, you may want to consider archiving some of your talk page; it is extremely long and takes time to load at 726,071 bytes. I can help you to set-up archiving if you need assistance. Cheers, North America1000 19:25, 4 July 2019 (UTC)

It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date. You have shown interest in climate change. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Hope everyone is having a good winter (or summer, for those in the northern hemisphere). Thanks, --DannyS712 (talk) 02:40, 1 August 2019 (UTC) Need info about potential transclusion limitsHi TTH: Does Template:Transclude random excerpt have a transclusion limit? I've seen instances where pages will stop transcluding after 100 entries are posted. If this is not the case, then great, but if it is, then for portals with a great deal of subject matter, a separate, second "More selected articles" box may need to be created. Look forward to hearing your response, North America1000 12:36, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

CptViraj (📧) 15:02, 9 October 2019 (UTC) A big chunk of what to do about... (yes of course those)Look, one of the issues is that portals have taken the top level namespace for the content browsing system. There should be no "Portal:" namespace. The portals should be peripheral to the content browsing system. There should be a "Content:" namespace, and portals should be a tool for that system, not the other way around. Consider the ramifications. They are all positive. I know you don't want to hear this. It doesn't make sense or whatever, but run the situation where the namespace is "Content:", portals are just a tool of that project, and someone wants to complain. Is the first complaint, "I don't understand what is going on here," or, "I don't see why people are allowed to try and do these things?" No, it's not. You know how one of the big complaints were that contents of portals were irrelevant or not quite focused? That is going to change because it is also psychological. Give it a thumbs up TH, "Content:" namespace has got to fly, portals are already in the cargo hold of that scheme... You've spent a long time at the wings.

RedirectsA redirect is a page that has the sole purpose to automatically redirect readers to a differently named page; to take the reader where they really wanted to go. Redirects allow a topic to have more than one title. Redirects are used for synonyms, abbreviations (initialisms), acronyms, accented terms (diacritics), misspellings, typos, nicknames (pseudonyms), scientific names, etc.
To create a redirect for the term "Oof":
- Type
Oof
in the search box, press ↵ Enter - Click on the redlink for Oof that it presents
- In the edit window that appears, type
#REDIRECT [[Foo]]
on the first line to make it lead to the articleFoo
- Redirects should be organized in to categories too. Each redirect can have up to seven redirect categories. Categories go on the third line of the redirect. (Note: Plant has a subcategory within the category of scientific name; enter plant after a pipe).
Here are two examples of a redirect category using a category template:
{{R from birth name}}
{{R from scientific name|plant}}
Preview your new redirect before saving it. Make sure:
- There is a big right-facing arrow to the left of the bolded name of your target page name.
- That your target page is bolded in blue (if it is red, go back and double check your target name in the edit window).
- That your redirect category has rendered properly and that the boilerplate it presents makes sense.
– –To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd-day-after-next}}
