Our banner reads, in part, "a collaborative effort to improve Wikipedia's coverage of tulips." Tulips??? |
|||
:Changed ''Tulips'' to ''Russian History'' here and in the template - thanks for pointing it out. I'm not sure how to locate the pages, if any, which already have the incorrect template added. [[User:Phaedrus86|Phaedrus86]] 01:05, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them. |
|||
:Thanks for changing it. I had added the banner to an article before the change, and it looks like it was automatically updated.--[[User:Hafar|Hafar]] 01:33, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
Portals are being redesigned. |
|||
:"Tulips" was my fault. I just copied the template from the Wikiproject help page (with tulips), went to feed my cats, and forgot to up date it. In other words, I'm an idiot. Thanks for updating it, Pheadrus. [[User:MarshallPoe|MarshallPoe]] 14:10, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
The new design features are being applied to existing portals. |
|||
More important question: If an article has been 'claimed' by another WP project (Ivan IV falls under the biography and military history projects, for example)do we need to talk to those projects before adding the banner and editing the articles? |
|||
--[[User:Hafar|Hafar]] 22:52, 5 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
:I don't think so. I've been adding the banner to Talk pages and have seen many with multiple projects. It seems to me a case of "the more, the merrier." [[User:MarshallPoe|MarshallPoe]] 14:10, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{tl|Transclude lead excerpt}}. |
|||
==Profiles== |
|||
Guys (those in red ink :)), could you please create profiles for yourselves? I think we can all benefit from knowing each other just a little bit better. Thank you! [[User:KNewman|KNewman]] 06:07, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |
|||
The discussion about this can be found '''[[Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Portals#AWB_team_please_tackle_maintenance_run_on_intro_sections|here]]'''. |
|||
==Clarification needed== |
|||
You say "Place the Russian History WikiProject banner on the TALK PAGE of ''every entry tagged with Category:History of Russia''". How about articles that are not tagged with Category:History of Russia, but are about Russia and its people? Please, clarify. [[User:KNewman|KNewman]] 17:44, 6 December 2006 (UTC) |

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Portals#Specific_portal_maintainers|here]]''', noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time. |

On April 8th, 2018, an [[Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/RfC: Ending the system of portals|RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace]]. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system.

WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject
[edit]The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.
Portals are being redesigned.
The new design features are being applied to existing portals.
At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.
The discussion about this can be found here.
Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.
