Portal:Saskatchewan
Content is randomized, and I would greatly appreciate feedback on the portal. Thanks for your time! Happy editing,SriMesh | talk  22:09, 6 January 2008 (UTC) All the portals mentioned below to use as models/examples are currently Featured Portals: Hope that helps.

 * Comments
 * 1) ✅Consider randomized images in the Intro, model Portal:Iceland. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh | talk  00:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) ✅No need for the references in selections at Portal:Saskatchewan/Selected article. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh |  talk  01:14, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) ✅You are using 2 different footer models, the "Selected picture" says "suggest", and the "Selected article" says "Archive/Nominations". Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) ✅The "Did you know" section could be standardized (as mentioned above, so could lots of sections) and a good model to go with for that is the Featured Portal Portal:New South Wales - which has sets of three hooks per subpage, with a free-use image used for every set. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh | talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) ✅Categories could have a nice little icon/image somewhere in that section, see Portal:Sustainable development. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh |  talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) ✅Could add a Featured content section, the Featured Portal Portal:North West England is a good example of this. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh |  talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) ✅Have a Question? Ask here! and Help - I want to add to the SK portal are both a bit too self-referential. Consider moving these to some sort of header on the portal talk page or WikiProject page instead, for those looking for help/ways to contribute - because Things you can do is usually the section for that in Featured Portals.  Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh |  talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) ✅Selected biography is currently using both footer systems, "...Archive/Nominations", and "Suggest • More Biographies...".  Pick one and go with it for all footers in the portal.  Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)SriMesh |  talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * 9) ✅Selected Quotes section could be reformatted, a good model is Portal:Religion. Cirt (talk) 23:42, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you, will get on the improvements over the next two daysSriMesh | talk  04:52, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Started changes, will have to skip a day and get back again. Thank you very much!SriMesh |  talk  04:26, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
 * completed all the tasks for the portal aforementioned. Thank you very much for your time.  Would it be ready for submission for Feature Portal?SriMesh |  talk  04:22, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

The image in the intro makes the horizontal bar appear - you may want to resize/remove it. WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN  it seems the winds have stopped...  23:46, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
 * 1) ✅ Re-sized image. I have a wide screen monitor, does the bar appear nowSriMesh | talk  17:38, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Nope, just right.   WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN   that one guy who buried stuff  22:25, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
 * I am still seeing the bar across the screen on the portal. You should make the portal look friendly for all sizes of monitors.  Mr. C.C. (talk) 05:17, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Have addressed these concerns. Does a portal need 10 articles at feature or good article status in each section to be eligible for feature status? Is Portal Saskatchewan ready for review for feature? SriMesh | talk  00:21, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
 * 2 things. 1) The image on the main portal page is horrible. It looks grainy. 2) You need at least 15, if not 20, of each section. Anything under that is a no-go. OhanaUnitedTalk page 03:58, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
