Quotes
[edit]Mislabeling of satellite image.
Dcabirac (talk) 13:08, 29 July 2009 (UTC)The satellite image on this page is labeled "Satellite Imagery of Africa". It should be "Satellite Imagery of North America". I can not see how to change the label on the image, so perhaps a more knowledgeable soul could correct this.
I can't help but notice that the quotes currently listed are all from Americans. Perhaps we can diversify this a bit? Aluvus 13:33, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject North America
[edit]We need a WP:WikiProject North America, to complement WP:WikiProject South America, and to cover international things. 76.66.196.229 (talk) 07:44, 5 February 2009 (UTC)
"Countries and territories" section
[edit]There reads: Territories, dependencies, and subnational entities of a country not located primarily in North America are italicized.
Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands are territories of USA. So U.S. is not "primarily in North America"? There must be some error. 82.141.67.203 (talk) 08:39, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Notice from the Portals WikiProject
[edit]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 07:40, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
