 * Delete this portal, without prejudice, but with a large fish to the nominator:
 * The nominator's statement that there is No useful content is true but misleading, either deliberately misleading or bizarre. The nominator blanked the portal, removing a link to the lead article, Billy Murray (singer), immediately before nominating the portal for deletion.  They were therefore technically in compliance with the MFD tag, which says do not blank, merge, or move it, or remove this notice.  So the nominator first blanked the portal, which removed useful content, and then nominated the portal for deletion.
 * My first thought, on seeing that the portal had originally had a lead article and nothing else, had been to !vote Neutral and give the originator six days to complete an unfinished portal. I was assuming that the originator was a good-faith editor, and might be planning to create a portal.  I now see that the originator is not a good-faith editor, but has been blocked for vandalism, and so will not be finishing the portal, but probably either was never planning to finish it, or was planning to display hoax content.
 * I am very skeptical of portals, but as long as Wikipedia supports them, we should consider them on a case-by-case basis at MFD.
 * If another good-faith editor wants to create a portal, they should be allowed to do so, subject to another MFD, but not to speey deletion.
 * Delete to me we do not need portals for individual singers. Catfurball (talk) 15:14, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
