Status report from the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals|Portals WikiProject]]
Wikipedia: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, and design the portals of the future.
As of April 29th, membership is at 56 editors, and growing.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for each component of portals.
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. — The Transhumanist 03:26, 30 April 2018 (UTC)

Coatrack article
I came across the article Pyruvate cycling earlier today. The article as it stands is almost impossible for someone well versed in the area to comprehend, and it appears to simply be a WP:COATRACK for a load of papers. It doesn't seem like a legit article at this point. I'm sure the topic is legit, but the article is nowhere near Wikipedia standards. Can someone more versed in this take a look as I'll only delete all the further reading and coatrack elements. Cheers. Canterbury Tail talk 11:50, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Revitalise the biology portal?
Should we keep editing this portal? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryan busse (talk • contribs) 19:00, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
- Absolutely. See the portal's [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Portal:Biology&action=history Revision history] for improvements that were made today. North America1000 12:54, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
:* I'm afraid it's flogging a dead horse. Websites need portals when other navigation mechanisms are lacking; but we have 1) Wikilinks 2) Main and Further links 3) See also sections 4) Navbars, navboxes 5) Categories 6) WikiProjects 7) probably several other mechanisms I've forgotten to mention. A portal basically just rehashes existing content, and if I was to be unkind I'd say "less well". We don't need'em, specially in a very well-linked area like bio.
