== Discussion about proprosed How-To articles == | |||
== Proposed How-to Articles Related to Portal Pages == | |||
*Edit a portal page - I think we already have this how-to document. | |||
*Add to the directory of portals - I do not know what the "directory of portals" is. Does anyone know? | |||
*Add a section - Originally this was listed in the list below, but I believe the "section" is in reference to the different boxes on a portal page. If not, then what is a section?
