1. In the "Did you know..." ...that the PlayStation Portable Slim and Lite, at 189 grams, is 29 grams lighter than the Nintendo DS Lite? reads a little like an ad, but if it's, say, the lighest portable console, that would be noteworthy. Msanford (talk) 15:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Finished

2. I would strongly suggest increasing the number of Selected articles (currently 8), pictures (currently 5) and, possibly most importantly for you, games (currently 5). If your idea is to get people to write more articles, then make that a big, bold item in the "Things you can do" section, usually in the format "Requested articles: game 1 game 2 game 3" as red links so people will click them and write an article. Make as many as you can think of! Msanford (talk) 15:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Finished, but can always grow.

3. You may consider phasing in more standardized reference tags for your news items with a {{reflist}} at the bottom in a separate box. But that's just my personal preference because I'm a citation maniac. Msanford (talk) 15:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

  • I didn't know portals take refs. I've been taking them out when I use articles for the portal.
Everything should be referenced, always, everywhere. That's my take at least, others may have a different idea :) Msanford  T  16:10, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
I disagree. The ref links don't take you anywhere on the portal. I say leave them out. WEBURIEDOURSECRETSINTHEGARDEN tell me a joke... 22:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Aside from that, the portal is visually pleasing: you've used a great colour scheme which is directly realted to the content, and I like the related boxes at the bottom. Msanford (talk) 15:59, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
