Portal:Rhode Island

edit

I've been working on this one on-and-off for months, and after a helpful peer review, I think it's ready to be featured. One editor at the PR suggested that I replace the selected quotes with selected biographies, and while I'm not entirely sure it's necessary, I'd be happy to implement this change if others agree. –Juliancolton | Talk 18:10, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why not just add Selected biographies, as well? Cirt (talk) 23:40, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Mainly because as far as I can tell there simply aren't enough high-quality relevant biography articles. –Juliancolton | Talk 00:03, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm... Have you considered Gilbert Stuart and Roger Williams (theologian)? Neither is a featured article, but both look to be in pretty good shape. --Orlady (talk) 18:54, 11 September 2009 (UTC) Actually, Gilbert Stuart is a GA. The other is rated "start," but appears to be past that stage. --Orlady (talk) 19:34, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I left a notice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject U.S. states. Cirt (talk) 16:24, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for delay in replying. [www.filefactory.com/file/a0d5215/n/PortalRhode_Island_screenshot-0001_jpg]. Seems to be working OK on my home PC but not my work one. Work screen res is 1280x1024. –Moondyne 03:28, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Aha, I see. I think it should be fixed now. –Juliancolton | Talk 04:04, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Nope. Unchanged (purged also). –Moondyne 04:42, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
How 'bout now? –Juliancolton | Talk 16:33, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
50% fixed it but the l&r boxes were butted up hard against each other.49% might be a compromise. See File:PortalRhodeIsland-FF3-49%.jpg and File:PortalRhodeIsland-IE8-49%.jpg. You can delete those 2 images when you've finished with them. If I look at another random portal, say Portal:Angola, the middle separator column width is almost identical in both IE and FF. –Moondyne 04:17, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm, odd. I'll ask around to see if anybody knows an easy fix. –Juliancolton | Talk 14:17, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I guess I was waiting for slightly more content. But if it's not there it's not there, and really as long as you continue to maintain and add to the portal over time I have no problems adding my support. --Jh12 (talk) 10:08, 26 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
