Portal:Fungi[edit]
This is the first portal I've worked on. I have received a little guidance from the peer review and other fungi project members, as well as from copying other portals. The content featured is as follows- 19 selected articles, all of good or featured status, 13 selected pictures, all of featured or valued status and 89 selected species, all of which have been featured on did you know and are of reasonable quality, so are of B or C class. The did you know section is updated whenever a new fungi article is added to did you know- 58 so far this year, with a few more waiting now. The other sections don't really need any sort of constant maintenance. There are a good few fungi contributors producing high quality material worth including, and the various lists on the fungi WikiProject allow me to keep the portal updated with the most recent material. I can't see any reason that this portal shouldn't be featured, but it's possible I've missed something with my lack of experience with portals. All comments welcome. In case it makes any difference, I am in the WikiCup, and intend to claim points for this. J Milburn (talk) 18:45, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Peer review at Wikipedia:Portal peer review/Fungi/archive1 appears to still be open, one of these two discussions needs to be closed for the other one to proceed further. Cirt (talk) 09:48, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Please close the peer review. I'd do it myself, but there isn't an archive page for this month and I'd rather not be the one to create it. J Milburn (talk) 09:55, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. Looks great & meets the criteria. feydey (talk) 09:56, 22 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment You use both the parameter |footer= and a separate link from each subpage to Portal:Fungi/Selected article, Portal:Fungi/Selected picture and Portal:Fungi/Selected species. This is unnecessary and looks silly. I suggest you remove the footer parameter from the main page, that should do it. Secondly, the Wikiprojects-section does not explain what a wikiproject is. Perhaps add something like in Portal:Norway/WikiProjects or Portal:Feminism/Projects. Everything else looks great! ☺ Spiby ☻ 12:27, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Support As a WP:Fungi contributor my opinion is biased, but I think the portal meets all of the FP criteria. It's nice to see all of the fungal articles and photos displayed so attractively. Sasata (talk) 06:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
