Wikipedia:Portal peer review/Islam/archive1

Portal:Islam
I think this portal has reached Featured portal criteria, but I want to check it before nominating there. Seyyed(t-c) 15:35, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm relatively new to portals but here's what stood out to me.
 * The lead paragraph has an awful lot of parenthesis, which I think breaks the flow.
 * Does the Selected Picture have to be in a thumb format? Personally, I think it's distracting in this case.
 * Same thing with the reference. If some one wants to check references, they can click the article link.
 * Everything else looks fine to me. Just make sure everything is updated regularly. I hope this helps some. (Guyinblack25 talk 22:16, 28 August 2008 (UTC))


 * I would recommend use of some other colors besides green and black. Maybe a turquoise green-white-black combination would be better. Also there is a gap in the page (at least in my browser), below Selected location which needs to be filled. Readjust it or add another section. Finally, why does selected picture not have a picture in it?--Shahab (talk) 04:11, 31 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Good points raised by Shahab. You also need a link to show previous selections of the portal. I also noticed that this portal did not undergo any major updates for a few months. OhanaUnitedTalk page 18:20, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Doing some reformatting and work on this portal. Should be done soon, will update when done. Cirt (talk) 17:40, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Reformatting in progress
 * Most of the reformatting is done, now just to fill in the reformatted subsections with more selections of randomized content (will stick to WP:FA and WP:GA only). Should be done with that soon. Cirt (talk) 17:57, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Just noticed this portal is missing a Related portals section. I will get on that. Cirt (talk) 17:44, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Missing
 * Okay, did that. Cirt (talk) 17:57, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Okay I'm pretty much done with the reformatting work, and ready to proceed to WP:FPOC - thoughts? Cirt (talk) 18:40, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Done

On second thought, might want to work on incorporating an In this month section, modeled after Portal:Norway/Selected anniversaries - could glean information from helpful pages such as Timeline of Muslim history. I will get to work on that. Cirt (talk) 18:49, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
 * In this month
 * Okay, now this is also completed, with four entries per month (rotates based on current month automatically at the main portal page). Cirt (talk) 13:02, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
