message: Note that the Adorno quote listed on the front page of this article was written by Adorno in an article he attributed to the pseudonym "Hektor Rottweiler." --- There is a debate concerning to what extent Adorno understood jazz and what jazz he actually heard - i.e., European popularizations of American popularizations of American jazz.  His attacks on jazz may not be directed at the "authentic" jazz played by serious musicians.  At any rate, it may be worthwhile adding the pseudonym to the quote's attribution to not the ambiguous context. Editor437 01:14, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

message: very moribund portal. doesnt get a lot of traffic, but that may be due to it not being linked a lot, or that nothing has happened here for 7 years. added random function, created 9 articles/images to rotate through, trimeed out sections that are hopelessly out of date.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:55, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

message: WikiProject 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    07:34, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
