Portal:Ithaca, New York


31,000 person city in New York. While this place has more going on then many similar sized towns, this is a automatic portal by Happypillsjr and is prone to future breaking. Insufficient scope for a portal. Legacypac (talk) 05:20, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Yet another portal platoon portal. Cities of this size do not need portals.  Not expressing an opinion on Portal:Ithaca, but there isn't one, which proves something.  There are at least 9 places named Ithaca, 7 in the United States, but the best known one and the primary subject name is the one in Greece.  Robert McClenon (talk) 22:32, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Narrow topic (small city) which fails the WP:POG requirement that portals should be about "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers".
 * It is also an automated portal solely built off a single navbox, which is a much better navigational tool because it appears on all the pages in its set, whereas the portal requires navigation to a separate page. This is just a WP:REDUNDANTFORK of the navbox.
 * Note that this portal was created by User:Happypillsjr, who also created many dozens more automated portals. Some of them are being discussed at WP:Miscellany for deletion/83 more navbox-based portals. -- Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 10:08, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
