Portal:Albany, California


Too small a city, and too small a pool of articles, to sustain a viable portal. Fram (talk) 09:35, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete too small a topic Legacypac (talk) 16:24, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete and add another city with the same name, even though the one in New York is more important. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:04, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Even Albany NY is under 100,000 people which is a significant tracking threshhold used by the UN, Wikipedia and others. Legacypac (talk) 19:12, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes; Albany, New York is a state capital, and still does not need a portal. We haven't considered whether portals are in order for US states, Canadian provinces, Australian states, Mexican states, German Lander, etc., which are politically and historically significant.

 * Comment we've been nuking portals recently and I'm not sure why exactly - I've never seen portals until they started showing up at AfD or DRV. But I don't see why this needs to be deleted? SportingFlyer  T · C  21:41, 22 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Because there has been a massive indiscriminate creation of 4500 new portals using automated tools against WP:MEATBOT. Legacypac (talk) 13:50, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep: city-level and higher regional portals are all viable by their very nature. I'm opposed to keeping neighborhood ones, as drilling down too far.  — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  16:07, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
