Notes re portal work

Northamerica1000, thanks so much for your help and your edits on this portal!! as you may know, I am coordinator at Wikiproject History. I am totally open to any edits and any ideas that you may have. i am eager to get this portal up and running. you can feel free to edit as much or as little as you may wish. your input and work here are highly welcome, as we do hope to get this portal up and running again as an active resource. i welcome your ideas. Please feel free to write, to comment, or to express any thoughts, ideas, or info, any time. thanks!! --Sm8900 (talk) 15:58, 3 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Sm8900: I'm a bit busy working on other stuff, but I will try to post some ideas here soon. For starters, though, the addition of more Featured articles would certainly be an improvement. Does the portal have any sort of topical selection criteria? I ask because the general discipline of history covers a lot of ground. Perhaps new additions should be continent-based. For example, when updating with new articles, one article can be added for each of the following continents: Africa, Asia, Antarctica, Australia, Europe, North America and South America. This would help to ensure for the portal to contain diverse content, and not focus too much upon one topic or another. However, maybe Antarctica doesn't have to be included every time or on every run, because it seems that there are less articles available compared to that based within other continents (e.g. see Category:Antarctica).

Shahwani (Urdu: شاہوانی) is a Baloch tribe. It is an ancient and vast tribe of baloch according to history ("in Mir Naseer khan Azam regime when the population was counted for the establishment of tribe force (army), the population of this tribe come out to be 30,000 but according to British census in 1901&1914, the population of Shahwani tribe come out to be just 6000 in first report and while 3700 in the subsequent report. Whereas the small tribes population living in Sariab is quite large than the British report. However, they make up the majority of the population of sub-division of Kalat and Kachi district such as Sarwan, Dadhar, Dirkai, Mirbagh and HajiShahr, and in certain area solely Shahwani are living.
