Portal:Melrose, Massachusetts


27,000 person town in Metro Boston covered by Portal:Boston Image of city hall repeated on the page. Don't be fooled by the General Information list of subtopics, most are redirects to sections of the town's article. Bios of people from a place are not about the place and should not count toward portal article scope, but they are featured articles. One of the featured articles is the same as the Introduction so you can actually see three copies of the city hall image at once on one page. It took me more thought to nominate this then went into making the portal. Legacypac (talk) 21:22, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. An automated portal only worth of an automated deletion. Pldx1 (talk) 23:04, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete definitely not significant enough for a portal. Lepricavark (talk) 00:47, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - There are more than 20 places named Melrose scattered over the Eastern Hemisphere, Western Hemisphere, Northern Hemisphere, and Southern Hemisphere. None of them need portals.  On Monday, converting the disambiguation page into a portal would have been an interesting idea.  Robert McClenon (talk) 20:34, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Don't forget Melrose Place which also does not need a portal. Legacypac (talk) 22:10, 6 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete anything which uses sections as general "articles" — python coder (talk &#124; contribs) 22:08, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
