ഫലകം:കുറുക്കുവഴി Portals are pages intended to serve as "Main Pages" for specific topics or areas. Portals may be associated with one or more WikiProjects; unlike WikiProjects, however, they are meant for both readers and editors of Wikipedia, and should promote content and encourage contribution.

What are portals?

ഫലകം:കൂടുതല്‍ The concept of a portal originated in the Polish and German Wikipedias. In early 2005, the portal concept was imported to the English Wikipedia and the first Wikiportals were established. Later that year, a special namespace (Portal:) was created for portals.

The idea of a portal is to help readers and/or editors manoeuvre their way through Wikipedia topic areas through pages similar to the Main Page. A portal is a showcase for a topic, with the header pointing to a summary definition of the main topic, usually in a wikipage of the same name (e.g., Portal:Topic with Topic as the main page). From there, the selected article and selected picture are highlights of the overall topic. Categories, related portals, and other items express where this subject fits within the overall heirarchy of knowledge (or wikipedia). Finally lists of articles to create, improve, collaborate, or otherwise work on are listed so that people know where contributions are most needed. In essence, portals are useful entry-points to Wikipedia content.

How to find portals

ഫലകം:പ്രധാനം All portals should be listed at the directory of portals, which also details their founding dates and who you can contact with regards to a particular portal. If you have created a portal, you must list it here. അമുഖം:ഒറ്റനോട്ടത്തില്‍ lists all portals of decent quality.

Portals are also largely inter-accessible, with users able to navigate from one portal to another. Universal features such as the browsebar, which links to top-level portals, and the ആമുഖങ്ങളുടെ രീതി, which links to അമുഖം:ഒറ്റനോട്ടത്തില്‍, allow for convenient browsing. Moreover, portals are also categorised according to hierarchy. Portals in most instances will also link to their Related portals (those which are lateral to them) and their Subportals (those which descend from them).

In the main namespace, the top-level portals are linked to directly from the പ്രധാന താള്‍ and individual portals are linked from relevant articles using {{ആമുഖം}}. These templates should be located at article ends in See also sections (or equivalents).

How to create a portal

ഫലകം:പ്രധാനം There is no single standard design for portals, but the most widely used layout is the "box portal". The use of this design is recommended due to the ease with which it can be created and maintained. For further ideas on portal design, ഒറ്റനോട്ടത്തില്‍ existing portals and see the വിക്കിപ്പീഡിയ:ശ്രദ്ധേയമായ ആമുഖങ്ങള്‍. For step-by-step instructions on how to set up a new portal refer to the instructions page.

How to make a good portal

Most portals contain the following for readers:

  • Links to specific articles or tasks
  • Collaboration of the week, month, etc.

You may want to embark on an effort to fill the related categories with appropriate articles if this has not been done already (or add it to the portal's "todo" list so visitors can help out).

How to get involved

Just as with Wikipedia at large, portals can be edited by anyone. However, it is important to pay due regard to the established work of others. Editors are always needed to maintain individual portals; if you would like to participate in the upkeep of a particular portal, note your intention on its talk page, list yourself as a maintainer in the ആമുഖപ്പട്ടിക, and get to work!

A WikiProject on Portals has been founded to co-ordinate portal activity. The current objectives are to develop standards for all portals and to ensure maintenance. Other tasks include the integration and categorisation of portals.

Immediate attention is needed at portals listed in Category:Portals under construction.
