Automotive industry portals


Terrible group of automated portals. Portal:Automotive industry already exists. –eggofreason(talk &middot; contribs) 14:54, 11 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete each of these suffers from unfixable narrow scoop. France has two automakers for example. There is no reason to dissect the broad topic like this in portal space. Legacypac (talk) 16:54, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment Portal:Japanese cars is actually about automotive industry in Japan and could be bundled. Legacypac (talk) 20:36, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
 * It's been added to the list. –eggofreason(talk &middot; contribs) 14:35, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete the 5 "Automotive industry in Foo" portals; each of these automate pseudo-portals is simply a repackaging of the eponymous navbox template, which makes them simply a cut-down version of the eponymous head article. It is waste of readers' time to offer a "portal" which is simply a degraded version of the head article.
 * However, Neutral on Portal:Japanese cars. It is not automated, and draws its article list from subpages.  It should not have been added to this group of automated portals. (@eggofreason, would you like to strike it?) -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:01, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Not to seem like going with the flow here, but perhaps I can strike it and list Japanese cars as a different MFD on the basis of a different context. I am slightly unfamiliar with portal syntax, but I'll see what I can do to fix it up somehow. –eggofreason(talk &middot; contribs) 14:44, 15 April 2019 (UTC)
