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.

To consolidate everything in one place, below are the article and content selection criteria from the portal's various subpages. Some of the content is outdated on the subpages, such as nomination matters, which have not been used in some time. As such, some of the content from these pages has been copied here selectively.

The following updates have been performed for the Brazil portal. North America 1000 11:28, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
A couple of updates. — andrybak ( talk) 18:46, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
Section "
selected picture" of the portal has been overhauled using template {{
Portal pictures}}. To add another picture to the selection, only
POTD date is needed. No need to copy-paste captions, no need to fill out a layout template, no need to increase |max=
when a new numbered subpage is added. Just add a date. You can also use the search box on the
subpage to find other appropriate pictures. —

This page of the Brazil portal has serious design problems. There are 3 large blocks that only highlight "well written" articles, however, this does not mean that the articles are highly representative of the country. And that's exactly what happens from the beginning of this misconception. If there were only, for example, well-written articles about Brazilian ants, this is all that would appear on the page. I don't want to discuss here about the themes that are being displayed, however, it is quite clear to any native of the country that the themes presented have several problems, such as being extremely limited in terms of full coverage of what is interesting in the country. If at the beginning of Wikipedia, when there were few articles, this could be an acceptable criterion, now it is no longer. There needs to be random columns, so I created a column called "interesting articles" so that any article about the country can be placed, without meaningless limitations, such as "be a well-written article", which for me, has nothing to do with it, has nothing to do with the portal and is not a valid criterion - the way it is, I just take any irrelevant article about Brazil and turn it into a "good article" and it appears on this portal. 2804:14D:5C87:8E8C:EDB7:4BB6:C106:E2A8 ( talk) 18:50, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
Another massive problem here is the "general images" section. Unnecessarily, people is reverting my editing in this part, where, without any sense, it only takes pictures of 2 articles: "Culture of Brazil" and "History of Brazil", the which is complete nonsense and I can consider editorial bias as well. Today we have in this Wiki articles that were very well prepared over the years and full of vital pictures about Brazil, such as the Economy in Brazil, Industry in Brazil, Tourism in Brazil, Mining in Brazil, Transport in Brazil, Energy in Brazil, and all are extremely representative of the country, much more inclusive than those of Culture and History (which only show old things, and uninteresting for many people), so they should all be included in this section. 2804:14D:5C87:8E8C:EDB7:4BB6:C106:E2A8 ( talk) 19:04, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
