- It looks like you need to add links to different WikiProject that falls within its scope. And of course, get more participants. OhanaUnited 07:42, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, any suggestions for other projects to add? It's not a portal's responsibility to get more project participants, so I assume that's not what you meant. As far as getting more participants to work on the portal, feel free to pitch in! ;-) On their respective talk pages, I invited members of all listed projects to participate in contributing to the portal. I also made a recruiting announcement at the Community Portal that will run until 5/29/07. In addition, I added {{portalpar}} to most of the articles linked here as another way to get more editors to look at the portal. Any other recruiting suggestions? RichardF 14:48, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

- Looking great... how about adding it to Wikipedia:WikiProject Environment? Cause renewable energy, climate change, and substability all fall within the scope of environment. However, I'm not sure if WP:E wants a portal itself because Portal:Environment is only a disambig page. If you want to make a new portal, give this a try because there should be tons of information available. And sorry for not able to help you much, because I'm not too good with portals.

- Thanks. I don't think I've ever seen a disambig page for a portal before. Definitely unusual! I added the portals on the disambig page as "related portals" on the project page. I see you added this to the Environment project cat too. That should be enough connections for now. I wouldn't mind helping make an Energy portal, but I haven't decided if or what the next portal I start will be. RichardF 03:03, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- I think you can change the disambig page to an actual portal page. OhanaUnited 04:39, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I could... I'm just not so sure I will. ;-) RichardF 14:58, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
