Talk:Portal:Main Page Development

Portal Development - Main Page
This is the top-level page for implementing the Main page as a Portal. It's composed of this Main Page, a box template format, and as many sub-pages as needed.

I'm following Wikipedia's tutorial for building a Portal: LadyGeek 03:23, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Decided to copy from Business and Economics instead, the generic tutorial was way too involved. However, I learned a lot...

Suggested Category Listing

 * First draft of current category/subcategory distribution to 3 main portal-llke categories (alphabetized a la wiki); assuming this structure requires tagged categories. For simplicity, all current listed entries would be subcategories of the portal root, and pages would (initially) include both parent and subcategory tags to insure maximum display of pages. The existing Retirement Plan category would become the "portal" link. Current subcategories are indicated by -->:

Financial Planning
 * Asset Allocation
 * Charitable Giving
 * College Savings
 * Estate Planning
 * Personal Finance
 * Tax Considerations

Investing
 * Asset Classes
 * FAQ
 * Indexing
 * International Domiciles
 * Mutual Funds
 * Portfolios
 * Resources and Links
 * Vanguard

Retirement Planning
 * Annuities
 * IRAs
 * Employer Provided Plans
 * Withdrawal Strategies
