Upgrade to selected articles etc
This portal has now been upgraded to randomly select articles, pictures, DYKs, biographies and locations each time the page has loaded.

Earliest occupation
The portal intro says that the earliest period of occupation was in the Neolithic (New Stone Age) period, but here it says that Somerset was occupied in the Paleolithic (Old Stone Age) period. Should this be changed? Reaper Eternal (talk) 04:00, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Well spotted - I've changed it in the introductory paragraph.&mdash; Rod talk 14:50, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Notice from the Portals WikiProject
WikiProject Portals is back!

The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.

As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.

There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals. So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.

Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.

And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.

From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely,    &mdash; The Transhumanist   07:45, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
