Extended content

Beginnings

I've listed the portal at the portal directory, with WikiProject Nigeria as the maintainer, and left a note on the project talk page. Picaroon 01:46, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Instead of bringing up issues about specific subpages of this portal on their talkpage, please post the topic here. If posted on the subpage talkpage, people might never see it. It's not exactly like this talk page is crowded or anything, so posting here will be fine. Picaroon 04:51, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notice from the Portals WikiProject

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, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.

As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.

There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals. So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.

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.

From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 07:40, 2 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Portal DYKs

Moved from User talk:Northamerica1000

Hey NA1k, saw you reverted my re-automation of Portal:Nigeria's DYK. I think the advantages of an automated DYK outweigh the disadvantages in certain portals, including this one. In the case where a portal is based on a proper name, and where it has maintainers, I think there is little risk of getting an odd result. The portals where this was a problem were ones where the selected words had multiple meanings (Portal:Badgers comes to mind), so I would strongly advise against automation in those cases. But the DYK, like the Main Page's DYK, is supposed to be based on up-to-date info., and this requires lot's more work in in sub-paged based DYKs. UnitedStatesian (talk) 18:58, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UnitedStatesian: Check out the DYK section now, which I have combined into a newer entries section with transcluded selected recent additions (which you previously added) and an older entries section that pulls content randomly from Portal:Nigeria/Did you know. Provides newer content as well as interesting older content. This was performed using the wiki markup listed below. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 02:23, 26 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
