Status report from the Portals WikiProject

[edit]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals is back!

The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018.

Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, and design the portals of the future.

As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.

There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.

Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.

And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.

Portal updated

[edit]

This portal has been updated and expanded:

  • Overhauled portal with modernized wiki markup using transclusion from articles to display content, which provides readers with current, up-to-date information.
  • Article content from various portal subpages was moved directly into the portal using transclusions.
  • A new Recognized content section was added, which displays Featured-class and Good-class articles.
  • New content was added to all article sections of the portal.
  • Additional updates, cleanup and layout changes have been performed.
  • Additional articles for the portal can be considered from those available in the table listed below. North America1000 17:41, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Minor changes

[edit]

Per concerns about two articles that were being used in the portal that was expressed by a user at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Alaska, I have removed two entries from the portal: Polar bear and Steller sea lion (diff). North America1000 21:55, 13 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article list

[edit]

The following is a list of articles presently being used in the portal. Article content is transcluded directly from articles using the {{Transclude random excerpt}} template. The use of transclusion provides WP:READERS with up-to-date, verbatim content to that which is in articles. This prevents content in the portal from becoming outdated, because when articles are updated, that same updated content is presented in the portal.
