How to find portals

All portals should be listed at the directory of portals, which also details their founding dates and whom you can contact with regard to a particular portal. If you have created a portal, you must list it here. Portal:List of portals lists all portals of reader-ready quality.

Portals are also largely inter-accessible with users able to navigate from one portal to another. Universal features, such as the browsebar (which links to top-level portals), and the portals template (which links to Portal:List of portals), allow for convenient browsing. Moreover, portals are also categorised according to hierarchy. Portals, in most instances, will also link to their Related portals (those which are lateral to them) and their Subportals (those which descend from them).

While the top-level portals are linked to directly from the Main Page, individual portals are linked by placing {{portal}} on a page. In the main namespace, these templates should located at the top of an article's talk page, often due to being integrated into WikiProject banner templates. Per WP:ALSO, they may also be placed in the "See also" section of articles.
