[edit] Portal Link
Template:Cheshire is based on this template.
There is also a Cheshire portal that is being started and we would like to add a link to the portal to the Cheshire template. This has been done (see Template:Cheshire), but I do not think it looks great, and looks worse on actual pages (e.g. Northwich). A better way to do it would be to change this template to allow a new 'field' of Portal. I would suggest it has a value of the associated portal's name. This would then generate a link to the portal within the template, perhaps within the 'header', using portal.svg (
)?
Template:Cornwall, not based on this template, have done something similar and this kind of look is what I would like to achieve within this template.
I would have a crack at it myself, but as it affects a much wider audience outside Cheshire, I feel it needs to be discussed first.
Opinions anyone? Pixie2000 (talk) 13:59, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- I think this is a good suggestion, well worthy of discussion. I would support the addition of such a field. DDStretch (talk) 14:22, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

- I don't see why the county template cannot be redesigned to look like the Cornwall one. The addition of a "Topics" list seems like a good idea. -- Phildav76 11:03, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
I have updated this by adding a portal variable, pt. It is now used in Template:Cheshire. If anyone wants to improve the look, then please do have a crack!! Pixie2000 (talk) 21:55, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
