Other neat portal ideas for longer term
- Longer term ideas to think about from other portals:
- Events section, like: "On this day" e.g., Biography, Religion, United States; "Selected anniversaries" e.g., War; "Calendar" at Holidays. Interesting idea of "Month selected anniversaries", at Oregon.
- Model intro with some rotating images, after Portal:Oregon, Portal:Indiana, Portal:Iceland/Intro and Portal:Philosophy of science/Intro.
- Revamp DYK sections w/ free-use images, model after Portal:Criminal justice and Portal:Oregon.
- Portal palettes at User:RichardF/Palettes/Portals. Comparable color schemes can be developed from the various hue lists at User:RichardF/Palettes. Also see Portal:Box-header.
- If there are a lot of categories, then categories section to 2 columns, like in Portal:Indiana.
- Also take some time to check out style/formatting at Portal:Indiana Cirt (talk)
Note to self
- Template:Citation
- Template:Harvnb
- Example: <ref name="REFNAME">{{Harvnb|LAST|YEAR|p=PAGENUMBER}}</ref>
See models at The General in His Labyrinth and Mario Vargas Llosa. Cirt (talk)
More at Misplaced Pages:Harvard citation template examples. Cirt (talk)
Dispatch
Cirt, Awadewit suggested that you might be interested in writing a Signpost Dispatch article on Featured portals (the only area of featured content we haven't covered). Sample previous articles are at {{FCDW}}. We've covered:
- Featured content overview
- Peer review
- Did you know
- Featured lists
- Good articles
- Featured sounds
- Featured topics
- Images
- TFA
- And Featured articles many times: Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages Signpost/2008-07-21/Dispatches, Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages Signpost/2008-04-07/Dispatches, Misplaced Pages:Misplaced Pages Signpost/2008-10-13/Dispatches
None of them start out looking like that: if an editor initially just chunks in some text, many others chip in to tweak it up to Signpost standards. For example, someone wrote this, which Karanacs, Royalbroil and I turned into this, so if you just chunk in some text as a start, others can help finish it off. Another example, I put in this outline, and Karanacs brought it up to this. Other editors have written almost complete and clean Dispatches without much need for other editing. If you're interested, please weigh in and coordinate at WT:FCDW In case you're interested, you could just begin sandboxing something at WP:FCDW/Portals and pop over to WT:FCDW to leave a note when you're ready for others to help out.

- Will mull this over and most likely draft something up. Cirt (talk) 11:54, 18 November 2108 (UTC)
Thanks
Thanks for deleting my bio from Misplaced Pages; and I mean that sincerely. I agree that I am not in any way noteworthy enough to warrant my own wikipedia bio. Keep up the good work! Steve Dillard —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sladillard (talk • contribs)

Portal:Winter
Hi Cirt. I just finished working on Portal:Winter, and as you have significant experience with portals, I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions and advice for a potential FPOC. Thanks in advance, –Juliancolton 02:26, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
- Okay I will try to take a look when I get a chance. Cirt (talk) 05:25, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Anon appears to be acting in good faith.
Discussion with IRP, ]
Discussion on Misplaced Pages:Village pump (policy)#what is a 'valid' edit?.
Misguided edits are not vandalism. Taemyr (talk) 10:35, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for pointing this out. I will defer to the judgment of the other editors that have commented at the Village Pump thread, though it does seem that IRP (talk · contribs) and Mr.Z-man (talk · contribs) both make good points and feel the IP's edits were indeed disruptive , , . Cirt (talk) 15:25, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
- Anon's edits are certainly not helpfull. But there is a definite difference between vandalism and disruption, especially for new editors. Taemyr (talk) 09:32, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
Merry Christmas from Promethean
Cirt,
I wish you and your family all the best this Christmas and that you also have a Happy and safe new year.
Thankyou for all your contributions to Misplaced Pages this year and I look forward to seeing many more from you in the future.
Your work around Misplaced Pages has not gone un-noticed, this notice is testimony to that

I have:
- replied on my talk page
- added four fair use rationales to the image page
- commented on the image's talk page
- removed the tag for deletion
- removed, so far as I can tell, the disputed tags you placed on the articles
This note is a courtesy to let you know. Any discussion about the image should move to the image's talk page, I think. Thank you for expressing your concerns over the image and for notifying me. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 10:41, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
Re:Missionary: Impossible
Sorry, I just noticed your message. Sure, I can listen to the commentary, but it might not be for a few weeks. If you can access Planet Simpson through google books, the author does have some useable negative comments about the episode. -- Scorpion 18:42, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
