Welcome
Hello and thanks for stopping by the Museums Project, which was launched in mid-March, 2008. We've had to archive some of the initial discussion due to talk page length, but a complete index of all archived topics is available. In the mean time, the following topics may help you:
- Assessment, the assessment guidelines for the project. Please feel free to propose changes if you think they're required
- Requested Articles, if you feel like working on a new article
- Expansion Needed, these stubs have been created, but require expansion
- To Do, the project's to-do list, that includes everything except article creation and expansion requests
Please always feel free to start a new topic and don't worry if it may have been discussed before. New discussion is a good thing.

Updating the Portal logo
I think that the icon for Portal:Museums could be changed, either for clarity or distinction from Portal:Architecture. Could the current one (File:Map symbol museum.svg) be changed to one with better contrast, such as File:Hungary road sign I-026.svg, or one that is different content-wise from the Architecture portal, such as File:Noun project - Museum Visit.svg? I am seeking consensus here before a new request is made on Template talk:Portal. Jude Halley talk/contribs 21:25, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
- There are other SVG icons to choose from in the categories commons:Category:SVG museum icons, and non-SVG icons in commons:Category:Museum icons. Jude Halley talk/contribs 12:04, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
- Totally fine by me, clarity is always good. Star Mississippi 13:42, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
- I uploaded a new icon from the Noun Project to Commons (File:Museum Noun Project 8159384.svg). I think this or File:Noun project - Museum Visit.svg could do, as they are contextually different from the Architecture portal. Jude Halley talk/contribs 02:37, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
