Kusuma Karunaratne
[edit]It appears that the editor who created Kusuma Karunaratne may be inactive; and I wondered if someone following this Talk page might be willing to help expand this modest article about a prominent Sri Lankan educator?
I've developed a few suggestions for the improvement of an article which User:Bun initially created in early-August 2007. From my perspective, areas which deserve revisiting are:
My editing strategy was informed by articles about other academics, like Prof. Karunaratne, whose work has been noticed and honored by the Japanese government:

Above article has the name "Sri Lankan Premier League", but features an article related to "Inter-Provincial Cricket Tournament of Sri Lanka", which is another tournament than the one named in the title.
Pages should move accordingly and new article should be written for the Sri Lankan(/Lanka ?) Premier Leage.

- This isn't particularly related to the Sri Lanka Portal, so I have removed it. I see that you have also posted at Talk:D. Shelton A. Gunaratne, a much better place for your comments. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:35, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Notice from the Portals WikiProject
[edit]WikiProject Portals is back!
The project was rebooted and completely overhauled on April 17th, 2018. Its goals are to revitalize the entire portal system, make building and maintaining portals easier, support the ongoing improvement of portals and the editors dedicated to this, and design the portals of the future.
As of May 2nd, 2018, membership is at 60 editors, and growing. You are welcome to join us.
There are design initiatives for revitalizing the portals system as a whole, and for improving each component of portals. So far, 2 new dynamic components have been developed: Template:Transclude lead excerpt and Template:Transclude random excerpt.
Tools are provided for building and maintaining portals, including automated portals that update themselves in various ways.
And, if you are bored and would like something to occupy your mind, we have a wonderful task list.
From your friendly neighborhood Portals WikiProject. Hope to see you there. Sincerely, — The Transhumanist 07:46, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
