Portal:Russia[edit]

Self-nomination. See archived peer review. Stats: 5 rotating images in the Intro, 23 Selected articles, all WP:FAs, 11 Selected biographies, all WP:FAs, 18 Selected pictures, all WP:FPs, 20 sets of 3 DYK hooks, all with free-use images, 20 Selected quotes, all with free-use images, Updated news with Wikinews Importer Bot (talk · contribs), and a Rotating In this month section. Things you can do has a cleanup listing, a new feature from WolterBot (talk · contribs), as well as a link to notability concerns, thanks to WP:WPNN.

All of the above sections are randomized and display new content when the portal is purged. News updates automatically from Wikinews, using Wikinews Importer Bot. I believe the portal meets the standards for Featured Portal status.

Thanks to Sardanaphalus (talk · contribs) for help with Portal:Russia/Featured content and Portal:Russia/Russia topics. Cirt (talk) 03:55, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support- a very well structured and well formatted portal. Sushant gupta (talk) 12:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good. You know, you don't have to use FA for biographies and FP for pictures. I'm perfectly fine to accept any GA for biographies and any pictures with significance as long as the picture is not blurry or really under/over exposure into the portal.

I know - but if you use all Featured Content in a section you can label that section "Featured", otherwise it is best to just say "Selected" because otherwise it is sort of misleading. Cirt (talk) 19:23, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Either the page is no longer relevant or consensus on its purpose has become unclear. To revive discussion, seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump.
