[edit] Portal:Shreveport

Thought I'd give it a shot, trying to get often overlooked city some attention, it has a lot of history and culture to share with the world Justin 03:52, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

  • I think the portal looks good, but it was only created in the last few days. A featured portal must be well-maintained, and that requires some months of work to build up a track record.-gadfium 04:31, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. Nice start, but the portal is brand new. Consider withdrawing and asking for feedback from volunteers on the portal's talk page.
    • No evidence possible to support What is a featured portal? criterion, the portal is "well-maintained." In particular, no developed archive selections.
    • Image sizes too big for 1024X768, let alone 800X600 displays.
    • No image captions.
    • State and All-America templates beyond scope of portal. City template full of red links.
    • "Featured articles" aren't. Rfrisbietalk 04:42, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose per Rfrisbie. s d 3 1 4 1 5 final exams! 12:35, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Oppose. As well as above comments, needs explicit image credit for selected image. As well, I'm not sure if the scope of the portal is broad enough to support the What is a featured portal? criterion. --Gphototalk 14:18, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
