Wikipedia:Featured portal candidates/Portal:Robotics
{{portal|Robotics}} Hey, this portal has been on the up and up for awhile now, and definitely deserves featured status. A peer review has been made, with all comments either done or addressed. Thanks. Joe I 05:03, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

- Comments. Replying your answers:
- The main page provides the core standards for portals, and since it contains read more links, the portal should too. I also believe it'll be more helpful to inexperienced readers.
- Althought the WP:MOS is not a policy (a guideline but still), each featured portal is still expected to adhere it. Linking years alone certainly isn't helpful in context, and should normally be linked to the subject year rather than the year itself.
- Again, see the main page for example. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and we normally expect the reader to access the relevant picture articles after their portrayal.
- It'll simply be more graphically appealing if the projects are illustrated with images due the section's similarity to the "Related portals" section.
- Since the projects are so similar to the allready illustrated portals, it would be a redundant use of images. Joe I 02:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Lets keep the links focused. This has previously been discussed on other portals, including the visual arts portal and the philosophy of science portal.
- And if there is no cat for robots on whatever other wikimedia, you propose just deleting the link, even tho it would deny access to the one or two entries that reside under a larger cat. Related wikimedia should be readily accessible. Joe I 02:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Perhaps you should add a selected biography section for roboticists. There are at least 5 good biographies here. Michaelas10Respect my authoritah 17:50, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'll check it out, but the portal is well balanced now, and if I can't find more than 5, I won't. Joe I 02:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- Support — this seems to be in order :) anthony[review] 08:12, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
