README for editors:Thailand/randomization enabled version

[edit]

What is this Thailand/randomization enabled version?

[edit]

This is a mirror page of Thailand portal. They should be almost identical. The only different is that the article section is this page is randomizable, while the default Thailand portal will always show selected article of the month. This is simply to add some interesting features to the portal. Note that to most readers, they might not even notice at all that there are two different pages (which is good, IMO).

But why do you have to have this page?

[edit]

At the moment, most portals either have the traditional periodic features (weekly, monthly, etc.) or have the randomization-at-will feature(see portal:cats). I felt that it's much better have both and creating two mirror pages is the simple way to do it.

DO's and Don'ts

[edit]
  • DON'T redirect anything here. If you want to redirect something to Thailand portal, please redirect to the main default page
  • DON'T add a category to this page. This is just a mirror page, please do that to the main default page
  • If you are familiar with Thailand-related articles, DO nominate articles or pictures at the main talk page and/or update the portal monthly.
  • DON'T update anything here. This mirror page is best left alone. Most of the monthly updates are at subpages and some at the main portal.
  • If you are good with coding, DO fix errors, if you find any.
  • DO remember that both default Thailand portal and this mirror page should appear identical to the readers. So if you changed one page's format (i.e. add or remove a section), you should change another too.
