Category talk:Portfolios

Adding the Template:Portfolios Sidebar looks out of place, so I didn't use it here. --LadyGeek 13:07, 7 November 2010 (EST)

Double-checking the articles that categorize here
Based on the lead-in description, I'm left to wonder why some of the articles, such as Importance of saving early, Investment advisor and Investment policy statement belong in this category. I realized the category system is not rigid and formal, but these seem very out of place here, I would have expected to find them in Category:Investing rather than here. --Peculiar Investor 15:12, 1 February 2016 (EST)


 * Category Investing is a portal category for categories. The navigation trees used for table of contents will become a cluttered litterbox if we continually jump categorize them with pages. Note that this is beginning to happen on an admittedly limited scale. Perhaps a new subcategory such as Category: Portfolio management (categorized under Investing) would be a solution.--Blbarnitz 17:32, 1 February 2016 (EST)
 * Understood. Created a new Category:Investment management which categorizes under Category:Investing and add this new category so the above mentioned articles. Might I suggest that if the Wikipedia:Portal model is being followed, then perhaps the category names should include 'portal' as Wikipedia has done. Or perhaps the category description should make it clear that the category is a portal and articles shouldn't directly categorize here. If structure is being suggested to be followed, it should be self-evident, which isn't the case right now. --Peculiar Investor 18:11, 1 February 2016 (EST)
 * The portal architecture was used in the prior home page design (Portal:Main_Page_Development). Since we've incorporated the mobile UI and reworked the home page to a cleaner interface, there's no longer a need for this approach. I think portal means the top of the category tree in Help:Navigation. --LadyGeek 21:02, 1 February 2016 (EST)
 * That's actually part of the Wikipedia model and I took it to mean to top-level categories such as Category:Investing. I was trying to imply that these top-level categories need some identification that they are the top-level ones articles shouldn't directly categorize here (I fixed my typo above). --Peculiar Investor 21:20, 1 February 2016 (EST)
