Portal:Alberta


Old abandoned portal with no maintainer and with outdated copy past articles including 1 bio with a person dead for years not indicated in the portal. Will move 2 article selections to Canada portal. Moxy 🍁 00:55, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This portal has been abandoned for over nine years and was never completed, which is why all it's sub-pages are littered with roughly 100 red links to never added materials. It clearly fails WP:POG's requirement that portals should be about subjects broad enough to attract large numbers of maintainers and readers. This portal has had over nine years of no maintainers and it had a very low 17 views per day in June and July 2019 (despite the head article Alberta having 2344 views per day in the same period). Portals stand or fall on their merits in the now, not what could someday hypothetically happen with them, and this one falls flat. I am strongly against allowing recreation, as nearly a decade of hard evidence shows Alberta is not a broad enough topic to attract readers or maintainers.

 * Delete as per analysis by NH12 and nomination by Moxy. Only 14 articles.  Obsolete information about a person illustrates the flaw of the forked subpages approach, which must be deprecated.  Robert McClenon (talk) 03:39, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
