WikiProject Portals is a project that was formed to better organize information in articles related to Portals. If you would like to help, please inquire on the talk page and see the to-do list there. At present, there are 145 featured portals, of a total of 583 portals on Wikipedia.

[edit] Scope

This WikiProject has been created in order to better organise portals and related templates, so as to allow better integration and co-ordination between portal topic areas and ensure any particular Portal does not become messy, forgotten or unnoticed.
