Portal:China roads

 * – (View MfD)

Delete Just-created manual single page portal. There is no consensus that this portal's subject meets the WP:POG guideline's breadth-of-subject-area requirement. We have Portal:Roads. UnitedStatesian (talk) 16:22, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete We just deleted the portal on New York roads so indeed no new portals on roads. Legacypac (talk) 16:35, 17 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Comment – In the state this is in, it will likely be deleted, but there is actually a great deal of content about China roads on Wikipedia, as per the various categories that denote available content. As such, "no prejudice against potential future recreation" of a complete portal. I disagree with the notion that since Portal:New York roads was recently deleted, there should therefore never be any new portals about roads on Wikipedia. In time, articles about China's roadways may be expanded to GA and FA, more articles may be created, etc., and a portal could be perfectly viable someday. The deletion of the New York roads portal and this discussion should not be used as a precedent restricting the creation of new road-based portals in the future.

 * Delete - The "great deal of content about China roads" is not a valid argument for a portal. It may be a valid argument for a navbox.  Neither this portal nor any previous portal should be viewed as setting a precedent.  But it appears that creating portals without thinking about anything except the topic is still continuing.

 * Delete. WP:POG says that portals should be about "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers".  This is too narrow. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 17:07, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
