Please enable the default search on Swedish Wikipedia (sv.wp) to include the namespace Portal. There was a short and positive discussion after the idea came up, then I forgot to create the request: http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipediafr%C3%A5gor/Arkiv/2011#S.C3.B6k_och_portaler
I think you will get a better discussion with more participants at the village pump ([[:sv:Wikipedia:Bybrynnen]]). Wikipediafrågor is more of a help desk where you can get answers to questions about how Wikipedia works. (Example: WP:WF answers if it is possible to search portal namespace, but WP:BB discusses if the community wants this as default.)
Please reopen when there's consensus to make this change
Now there is a consensus for adding portals. Some people wanted to add more namespaces, but no consensus was found for that (and that is not within the scope of this issue). [[:sv:Wikipedia:Bybrunnen#S.C3.B6k_och_portaler]]
Please post a working link to community consensus. The one in your last comment does not appear to point to a section any more.
Here is a linked to the archived discussion: http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bybrunnen/Arkiv/2012/April#S.C3.B6k_och_portaler
Thank you for the consensus link. I would have thought the sv. Wikipedia had a more active community than that. Taking this bug.
Meanwhile, Barras on #wikimedia-stewards have suggested a bureaucrat gives a formal closure. He pointed the wiki is active, gets regular participation to votes. So the amount of voice is still weird.
I would not call that real consensus for this change on a wiki like svwp. Considering that you managed to get local oversights and checkusers, it is a bit odd that only that few people commented on this change. There should be more people commenting, imo. (comment requested by Dereckson) -Barras (steward) (re-posting after conflict)
"Formal closures" are not made by bureaucrats or any special designed usergroup on svwiki. It is made by any trusted user who can see an obvious consensus of a thread. Closing with 3 support in November 2011, imo, would have been correct. The new thread in april 2012, had no obvious consensus. In the latter thread, the ns-Portal is confused with ns-Project, that can have affected the reactions. I recommend Ainali to reopen a thread on BB and be very very clear about what this change will do to the project. I cannot see It will do any harm, and is reversible if it become impopular.
Updating URL to the new thread: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bybrunnen#Include_Portal:_in_default_search
No consensus, per https://sv.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Bybrunnen&oldid=17629592#Include_Portal:_in_default_search [ Closing bug report as WONTFIX ]
