Redirect
editHi, the redirect P:SH is probably better suited to Portal:Sherlock Holmes, who is more famous, and the abbreviation better known. As this portal may not be active, I will change the redirect in a week or so if there are no responses. Thanks, Matty.007 13:49, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- I don't agree. That is just a WP:POV. You'll have to do what other editors do when a portal abbreviation is taken and find another one. I had to use P:PALF for the Palatine Forest portal because P:PF was taken by an Australian alternative rock band. --Bermicourt (talk) 15:43, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- Um... Sherlock Holmes is massively famous and world renound. This German state had 442 views in the last 30 days, SH had 600. This portal doesn't have copmlete sections, it has empty ones, and was (as far as I can see) last updated 4 years ago. I have no problem initiating an RFC on this (per the guideline). Thanks, Matty.007 15:49, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- Fame has nothing to do with it, nor has the state of the portal. However, the number of articles covered by the portal should be a factor and Category:Schleswig-Holstein would appear to have considerably more articles within it than Category:Sherlock Holmes, which, together, probably clock up far more views. However, unlike article titles, portal redirects aren't based on WP:COMMONNAME, but displayed on the page. Once people have visited the portal, they know the shortcut. I know it can be annoying when the redirect you want is already taken - it happens to me - but just find another one. How about P:ShH or P:SHH? After all, the shortcuts for Wikipedia:Portal guidelines are WP:POG and WP:PORTG! --Bermicourt (talk) 16:33, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- I would still disagree, but I can see that it won't change anything, so I'll drop it. Thanks, Matty.007 16:56, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Notice from the Portals WikiProject
editWikiProject 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, — The Transhumanist 07:44, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
