message: Is there anyone in charge of updating this portal and changing the feature article?  I noticed the feature article about Marshall has been up for a while, and wondered how often a new one was picked.  –Benjamin  (talk)  17:57, 31 October 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Is someone in charge here? 

message: OK, I haven't really been involved with Wikipedia:WikiProject Texas or it's articles as much as I'd liked to.  So, I'm not real familiar with the articles.  If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them.  Please post a link to the article on (in the suggested heading) : Portal:Texas/Selected article archive, Portal:Texas/Selected picture archive, Portal:Texas/Did you know archive,   Thnx.  :)  Joe I 13:49, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Help Needed

message: At lower resolutions (/bigger font sizes) the table of text in the "State symbols" section was appearing below the pictures, leaving a lot of dead space to the left of the pics. So I moved the pics into the table itself, in a "rowspan=5" cell at the end of the first row, but then I had to remove all the "width" information to make it align correctly with the rest of the page. (At huge font sizes, relative to resolution, the entire page goes wacky, as the browser doesn't have enough room to show the two columns side by side.) Anyway, my latest version looks... okay, but there's still a little weirdness in the vertical spacing in the table. I'm not going to change it anymore, though. Someone else can try if they don't like the look of it. - dcljr (talk) 21:48, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

message: This portal has selected numerous images which are fair use. Per that policy, these images are prohibited in portalspace, and even under a proposed amendment, they will still not be allowed for selected pictures. As Portal:Texas is featured, all fair use images need to be either replaced with free alternatives or removed entirely, as a matter of urgency. Else, it faces demotion.

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    07:47, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
