Status report from the Portals WikiProject

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.

From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject.    — The Transhumanist   03:24, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2022 portal updates

The following updates/upgrades have been performed on the portal in 2022. North America^1000 16:23, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Converted the Selected list to a Featured list section that is scrollable, so several lists can be perused.
• Subpages to the Selected article section have not been added since 2013, so they are essentially stale at this time. Created a scrollable, purgeable Featured articles section which replaced the outdated Selected article section.
• Selected biography subpages have not been added since 2009, and after that only three were added to the main portal page using transclusion in November 2019, so entries are a bit stale. Replaced with section with a scrolling Good articles section that displays all GA-class articles, and biographies are included in these, as they are in FA-class articles as well. In other words, biographical articles remain in the portal, interspersed amongst other articles in the FA- and GA-article sections.
