Portal:Tanzania[edit]

I've been working on this portal for a little while and now would like some comments / criticism on how it's looking. I would like to try and get it to Featured Portal status at some point, so any advice welcome. In particular, I'm a little worried about Featured Portal criterion 1a: "It showcases only high-quality content that is preferably already featured." Sadly, there are not many FA or even GA Tanzania articles at the moment, so I'm wondering if that will stop this portal getting featured. BelovedFreak 16:27, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Everything is fine and good. And I support it to be a featured portal. But please add a picture in the selected article 8. --Extra999 (Contact me + contribs) 02:57, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your comment. I've added an image there.--BelovedFreak 11:22, 27 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Everything's looking fine, the colours chosen good, and your panoramas are absolutely beautiful! I can't comment on whether a portal can be featured without many Featured or Good articles (I have the same problem with the portal I maintain) but there's no harm in trying! In browsing around, I noticed a few very minor glitches you might like to look at...
  • The "edit" links fall below the title bars, which looks a little untidy to my eye, but might be a deliberate choice.
  • Hippopotamus is linked from Selected Articles rather than Wildlife.
  • The Selected Article "1998 U.S. Embassy bombings" link leads to a different article.
  • The anniversaries section is very light in certain months, February & May for example, which might cause the portal columns to be unbalanced in those months.
  • The Featured Biographies need the hyphens in the date ranges fixing.

Thanks so much for your thoughtful comments. Every thing you mentioned was either something I'd forgotten, or not noticed. I've implemented most of your suggestions, and will now see if I can find some more selected anniversaries for the months you mentioned. Thanks again for taking the time. --BelovedFreak 20:00, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
