Portal:Hudson Valley
Does not meet notability guidelines for Portals -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 06:52, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: There's a notability guideline for portals? I've neither seen nor heard of one before now. I can't find any mention of it on WP:PORTAL or WP:N. Please provide links to this elusive guideline. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 07:03, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * See Portal guidelines. It makes sense to have portals on notable subjects only. Also, they need maintenance and if there are insufficient editors to maintain them they fall by the wayside. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:42, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep as this portal topic is plenty broad, and the content is maintained and automatically updates the page on each load. Also, there is no "notability guideline" at that link. All that is there is a comment that "the subject of a portal should be broad so that it presents a diversified content. The portal subject area should have enough interest and articles to sustain a portal, including enough quality content articles above a Start-class to sustain the featured content section". This portal clearly meets that. ··· 日本穣 ? · 投稿  · Talk to Nihonjoe 08:09, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Notability? Love to see that one. Collect (talk) 10:30, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep Because I mentioned at the MfD for the New York's Capital District portal that the Hudson Valley and Finger Lakes regions both had portals the same user who nominated the NYCD for deletion decided to put up BOTH the HV and FL regions portals as well. I urge all who vote keep here to vote keep at the other two regions as well and to keep an eye out and let me and others know if they see this user try to delete other portals based on geographical regions.Camelbinky (talk) 12:08, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep - I've been updating and maintaining this portal, along with other editors, for nearly two years. – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 17:36, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
