Energy portal
I'm the editor of an energy magazine, and I've added my name to help maintain the Energy Portal.

Many portal are not there
Most Canadian portals and Portal:Bihar is not present?? --Extra 999 (Contact me +  contribs) 06:13, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Feel free to help update it. :) -- Cirt (talk) 03:42, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

Size of this page
I'm having problems getting this page to load, and I use a broadband connection. This makes the page very hard to work with, when making additions, changes, etc. Wouldn't it be a good idea to add section headers, and then create subpages, so that all 1500 portals are not all on one page? I can't imagine even trying to pull up this page on a dialup connection. --Funandtrvl (talk) 19:18, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, I've created subpages; hopefully, it'll load a little better now. --Funandtrvl (talk) 23:20, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Does anybody ever use this page for anything?
Does this page have a value beyond historical interest? BencherliteTalk 15:57, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Response by : The portal directory is the only place I know of to find portal maintainers, if that info isn't listed on the portal itself. As such it's particularly useful for working out who to notify when bringing featured portals to review (a task that sorely needs addressing atm). (Was added to my talk page). &mdash; Cirt (talk) 16:06, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Who is maintaining - or who last maintained - a portal should be visible from the edit history, either of the top-level portal page or its subpages. It seems a lot of work to maintain this list of portals just to save someone having to go through the edit history. BencherliteTalk 16:18, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

This page will no longer list "featured" star or not
This page will no longer be updated for "featured" star, or not, it will just be a simple directory. Users can check Featured portals to see which ones are featured quality. &mdash; Cirt (talk) 16:09, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
