Portal:Iceland
Greetings, portal reviewers! The
featured portal status. Thanks for your time—much appreciated! Happy editing, [sd] 01:54, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply

- The portal currently doesn't have a randomised DYK - obviously this isn't compulsory, but I think it would look better (as there aren't so many hooks that it changes regularly). An example of how to make a randomised DYK is Portal:Music of Australia. Support either way. — Dihydrogen Monoxide 02:07, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Actually, the DYK hooks are randomized with the template
{{Random subpage}}
. The coding tells the page to display one hook randomly from 1 through 5, one from 6 through 10, and one from 11 to 15. Thanks for your comment, [sd] 02:21, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oops, didn't notice that (I only checked the main portal page's code). Nice work. — Dihydrogen Monoxide 02:38, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Support - brilliant work. Particularly like the attention to detail and the inclusion of a selected panorama! Seaserpent85 02:07, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Awesome portal! Support, meets all criteria. Spebi 02:17, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support Excellent portal. I would just recommend adding Portal:Faroe Islands to the list of related portals. Húsönd 02:19, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. Very nifty portal with the rotating intro images, panoramas and waving flag. However, red links just don't belong anywhere but in the requests list. RichardF (talk) 03:29, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support. I especially like the rotation at Portal:Iceland/Intro. Cirt (talk) 05:36, 9 January 2008 (UTC).[reply]
- Support A Very nice looking portal, so much so that it makes me want to visit Iceland. :) Chris.B (talk) 07:28, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Similar to Portal:Wine, change "Archive/Nominations" to "Other selected (articles/bios/pictures/panoramas)" OhanaUnitedTalk page 14:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Archive/Nominations
was directly taken from other featured portals that also have their content randomized (for example, theChemistry, Dogs, Environment, and Sustainable development Portals); some have only]Archive
, but I wanted to convey one could also nominate new content there. I haven't seenOther selections
except at the Cars and Wine Portals, both of which aren't yet featured. Thanks for the comment! Best regards, [sd] 00:13, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply
- I "loled" when you used Environment portal as your rebutal because it was me who built that portal. You beat me in this argument and I have to eat my words *yum* OhanaUnitedTalk page 01:26, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - per many of the above. Obviously quite popular! :) Rudget. 17:42, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
historical reference. . Either the page is no longer relevant or consensus on its purpose has become unclear. To revive discussion, seek broader input via a forum such as the village pump |
Promoted. I'm closing this nomination early due to snowball effects. --OhanaUnitedTalk page 03:03, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
