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)

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. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 19:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
- Will mull this over and most likely draft something up. Cirt (talk) 11:54, 18 November 2108 (UTC)

talk page protection
No need for this, ], he was already reblocked with no talk page, --Jac16888 15:45, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
HTML help
Hi, Cirt. The banner for the WP:MUSICALS project has a problem. On some articles, it displays the project's to-do list, which should be condensed with a hide/show button. See, for example, Talk:Hair (musical) - the banner takes up a huge amount of space. Unfortunately, the guy who used to help with HTML at the musicals project has not been active on WP for over a year. Can you compress the to-do list? Thanks for any assistance! BTW, I am sending H.M.S. Pinafore for peer review and after I give it a couple of weeks, I'll go forward with the FAC. Best regards, -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oops! So sorry. To paraphrase a former President, my brain misunderestimated the issue. -- Ssilvers (talk) 16:35, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Re:Portal updates
Hey, good point that you contacted me. On my talk, Lvklock left me some more road images along with St. Joseph's Church in Camillus NY. The church pics can go on the Joseph M. Champlin article. Anyway, I'll see.Mitchazenia : Chat Trained for the pen 19:12, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
User:Yashveer r
I looked at all his edits and found a few that weren't reverted. Now everything he touched has been cleaned up. But why did you block him for only 24 hours? He is certain to start up his mischief as soon as the block expires. 67.79.157.50 (talk) 13:38, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- 67.79.157.50 was right. As soon as the block expired, Yashveer r was at it again and vandalized 22 articles. They have been reverted but surely he will continue. For some bizarre reason he keeps listing filming locations under studio in the infobox among his other changes. Since he refuses to respond to messages he obviously intends to keep doing this. He should be blocked indefinitely. 209.247.22.166 (talk) 13:44, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Please Y'self
- Please note article recreated. Thanks--Paste Let’s have a chat. 16:04, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- It is nominated for deletion again at . LargoLarry (talk) 19:15, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Looks like result was Speedy delete. Cirt (talk) 01:38, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Damien (South Park)
Hey Cirt. Right now, the FAC for Damien (South Park) seems to be hung up solely on the image rationales for the infobox image and the Omen comparison image. If the Omen picture has to go, I can live with that, but I can't see justifying cutting the infobox image. I'd appreciate it if you could go to the FAC to voice your support if you think the images work, or to provide me with some feedback on how they can be fixed if they aren't. (Of everyone who has criticized so far, nobody has provided any helpful feedback yet). It's over here: Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Damien (South Park)/archive1. Thanks! — Hunter Kahn (contribs) 21:54, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
Re: 1985 Rajneeshee assassination plot RfC
Hi, Cirt. I saw your note about this on the WikiProject Crime talk page. Before I decide whether to make a comment, I'd like more information about the dispute. It appears the initial discussion occurred on April 16. The talk page includes no other discussions between then and April 23, when the RfC was posted. Have the involved editors sought other forms of dispute resolution? Thanks, momoricks (make my day) 04:41, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- Sure thing, I'm almost always happy to provide my two cents. :) I checked out more of the disruption history for the article and added it to my watchlist. Best regards, momoricks (make my day) 06:42, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- Wow, things have totally spun out of control. May I suggest taking a step back for the rest of the day? I'll keep a watch on the article and talk page. momoricks (make my day) 00:34, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
Seahouses Festival
Hello - regarding the Seahouses Festival article - I understand that this page should contain factual verifiable information and that is what I am endeavouring to do. I do not want it to sound like a promo for this particular event but it is necessary that it should contain legitimate verifiable facts about the festival, as a useful addition to the 'festivals' subject area in general. I will present the information without hyperbole or unsubstantiated embellishment. The information on this page will hopefully feed into other subject areas which deal with Northumbrian culture. I would be grateful if you would not delete the page so hastily. Coverage in independent sources is available and can be added to the article. Seahousesfestival (talk) 14:33, 23 April 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mmytik (talk • contribs)
Please don't rename or recagorise my requests for comment without discussing the changes with me.
Please don't rename my disputes with you and recatagorize them without discussing the change with me as you have done here.. as It removed the issues I was wanting to discuss and redirected the discussion away from my issues. (Off2riorob (talk) 23:33, 23 April 2009 (UTC))
DYK for Charles H. Turner (attorney)

On April 24, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Charles H. Turner (attorney), which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

WP:FOUR
Since you seem to like to help find other deserving WP:FOUR honorees, you may want to look through the work of User:YellowMonkey, User:Piotrus, User:GeeJo, User:Carabinieri, User:Gary King, User:Maxim, User:Sephiroth BCR, and User:Brianboulton. Looking at Triple Crown you might find some more. I have removed your redundant nomination, however.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 14:58, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- It just seemed that you liked noming other people. I have only nomed myself. Since you seem to nom other people, I thought these were some names you might want to check. Like the triple crown people will figure it out.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 08:19, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
Re:Triple Crown
My thanks to you for the Crown, and especially for your words regarding "White as Snow (song)". I certainly hope I can wear the Crown well! MelicansMatkin (talk) 15:39, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
User:I-10
Since you where the blocking administrator of my main account, now what i'm going to do now, are there any chances that i might be able to get unblocked because this user is not telling me any useful information that might get me out of this mess here on Misplaced Pages. --I-210 (talk) 07:44, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
