I think there should be a Portal page (sans the :xxx) that explains how all the Portal:xxx pages play together. After all, anyone who is at the Portal:xxx stage of finding things is probably new, and an explanation of how the Portal:xxx pages work together must be useful.
That would be Help:Portal, but in general navigation between portals should be self documenting (intuitive). IMO, if it has to be explained then it is failed design.
I guess if one searches for Portal, the Help page could be listed first, followed by everything else. As well as being at the top of the links shown to the left. Is there a reliable system for knowing which pages will have help and what the help page will be called? There is no page called simply "Portal", but there is help for it. I hope is is not a matter of having to guess and see what help arrives. I ask because our own internal development wiki lacks a proper system of naming pages. Getting the developers to follow any system would be like the proverbial herding of cats. I am on the look-out for a brilliant wiki page naming scheme that is intuitive and useful, which would increase the chance that it actually gets used! Maybe you folk have cracked the mystery. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
