thread_title: Hungary national football team

message: I did some redesigning on the portal (been planning it for a long time but now that your attention was called to the portal, I really had to do it before someone beats me to it :) I got the banner idea from German Wikipedia's Portal Ungarn, though theirs looks too dark so I created a new one. Also, I think the text was crammed between too many pictures, and we should include the links to the descriptions of the flag and coat of arms. Please take a look at it, I'd appreciate some opinion (esp. on how it looks on different resolutions, mine's 1024x768). – Alensha 寫 词 14:36, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Seems to be a global problem, all portals I checked look odd on 800x600 (Portal:Astronomy, Portal:European Union, :de:Portal:Ungarn). Maybe with div styles it can be corrected but I'm not an expert on div. – Alensha 寫 词 15:53, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: New look

message: * Find out why the "edit" links don't work – it'd be much easier to update the sections if they worked
* Decide how often will we update the selected article and pictures and the Did you know. Plan the nomination process.
* Decide if we have enough participants to run the Hungary News section (it's kind of embarrassing that it was last updated when Sólyom became president…)
* A template wizard also should find a more elegant solution to arrange the text & pictures of the flag & CoA in the intro. Right now it has br and center tags. (Sorry. :)
* Someone who knows about licensing please check in Commons if the license status for the banner is good, it was made of 7 different pics with about 3-4 different licenses, I guessed cc-by-sa-2.5 and GFDL will do, but I'm not sure.

message: Okay, since most of the Hungarians keep their interest in the portal remarkably well hidden, I declare myself the maintainer, caretaker and Supreme Goddess of the portal. The selected article, picture and "Did you know?" will be updated every 2 weeks, starting from Saturday. twice a month, on 1st and 15th. The News section will temporarily be removed (we haven't got enough editors who could write about the most current events), and it will be replaced with a Selected anniversaries box (with content shamelessly copied from Hungarian Wikipedia where the anniversary section is updated quite regularly). Suggestions for selected stuff can be put here. If any of you don't agree, scream now or be silent forever. – Alensha 寫 词 18:37, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I don't know if this is the right place.. I hope somebody can help.
The page Islam in Hungary is being constantly updated all the time regarding the number of Muslims in the country.  There are various opinions.  The official census brings 3,200, but other sources bring 6,000 and even 60,000.  It is not a simple topic, because the definition of Muslim is not clear cut and there are different ways of counting the Muslim population.
I had tried putting up a general overview of the different opinions but it was again changed to show only one opinion.  I think this issue should be discussed and the page changed so that it won't be constantly updated the way it is now. Misheu 07:09, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  [[Szilvásgombóc]] 

message: The text of Nyíregyháza seriously needs review and revision by someone who can read Hungarian (I can't) and whose English is fluent, preferably native. Kudpung  describes it as "Very poor machine translation". 
For example, the section "Religions, Churches" begins:
: Roman Catholic - At the 2011 census, 25,132 people, 20.1% of the population identified themselves as belonging to a particular religion (in 2001 compared to 8365-strong decrease).
The phrase in parentheses makes no sense in English; my best guess is that it means "8365 fewer than in 2001". And all the religion paragraphs begin  this way.

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    07:33, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
