Portal:Television edit

Looking for some pre-WP:FPORTC feedback. Stats rundown: (15) Selected articles, all WP:FA, (11) Selected biographies, all WP:FA, (20) Selected pictures, all free-use, (50) Did you know hooks, all that originally appeared on the Main Page, (31) Selected quotes, all with free-use images. All of the above sections use {{Random portal component}}. Of note, the French Wikipedia already has a Featured Portal version, Portail:Télévision.

Thanks for taking a look. Cirt (talk) 01:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]

A few suggestions — per the other biographies, this one needs the dates of birth and death. WikiProject Television episodes • List of Television Episodes should be updated to Episode coverage. Cheers, [sd] 13:42, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Good points. Done and Done. Cirt (talk) 13:49, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
  - Thanks for the quick response! [sd] 17:36, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I made some format/layout changes I thought were more consistent with featured portals. I think this another very ugly color palette. Changing or getting rid of the green background would be much better. RichardF (talk) 15:03, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- That was the color palette when I got here. But feel free to change it to something better and yet unique from other portals. Cirt (talk) 15:05, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
  - I tried a lighter shade of the same box header hue. RichardF (talk) 15:38, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
    - Looks much better. Cirt (talk) 15:40, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
      - I agree — looks much better! However, in my opinion, the content in the boxes is much easier to read when the background is white. Regards, [sd] 17:36, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        I changed it to white boxes with a blue background running behind that (the same blue color that RichardF (talk · contribs) changed it to.) What do you think now? Cirt (talk) 17:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
        I added just a touch of blue shade (H210 S4 V100), a common Wikipedia color saturation/value shade for text boxes, to this blue palette theme (H210). RichardF (talk) 18:06, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
        I think that looks great, thanks. Cirt (talk) 18:13, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Looks great! In the introduction, shouldn't The Television is be changed to The television is? Cheers, [sd] 18:50, 31 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Done, thanks for pointing that out. Cirt (talk) 18:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC).[reply]
