[edit] Portal:Louisiana
I just finished making a lot of updates to the portal and was thinking it was nearing Featured status. Arundhati lejeune 14:14, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- The portal is absolutely beautiful, but there are a few things that need to be fixed. (1) I removed a non-free logo from the intro. Non-free images can only be used in article space. You may want to give all of your subpages a once over to make sure that the problem doesn't exist anywhere else. (2) The edit links on subpages like Portal:Louisiana/Selected picture aren't useful. If you put each selected item into its own box, then they can be edited more easily. (3) Some of the captions on selected photos aren't right - for example, Portal:Louisiana/Selected picture/3 credits the Library of Congress - the LOC is the source, not the author. Also, they are inconsistent. Some like Portal:Louisiana/Selected picture/5 are not wikified at all. Some bold the subject. (4) The lead image is really bad. You probably should use either a blank map, a flag, or a representative photo (something from New Orleans, the state capitol building, etc) --B 02:51, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- Oppose I'd like to see it go through Portal peer review before nominating for FP. Also see comment above. feydey 18:14, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- Comment The news stories need dates, sources, and an archive. Also, I'd recommend adding a few articles that need to be created in the to-do list. Teemu08 20:31, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
