Portal:Methodism

 * – (View MfD) &#8203;

Stale portal.

Portal:Methodism/Selected article is a mix of start, C, B-class articles (one GA which I am going to take to GAR). Seven of the nine entries date to 2013 or earlier with updates few and far between. The United Methodist Church: just lost a quarter of its members (largest schism since the Civil War!). Needs update.

Portal:Methodism/Selected biography is just one entry that hasn't been substantially updated since 2011. Schierbecker (talk) 19:53, 27 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Support deletion: it avoided deletion during the mass purge of portals in 2019 only because I had edited it shortly before then. I abandoned the portal project at that time and don't see the value in updating a portal that receives no visitors. --Hazhk (talk) 20:39, 27 January 2024 (UTC)

Maybe that is just as well because the portal displays some incorrect information. Robert McClenon (talk) 05:37, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete per above. Another portal based on an architecture that was never justified, and should never have existed.—Alalch E. 12:52, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete - This portal is a good example of content rot due to the use of subpages. The portal disagrees with the article as to who is the pastor of Towson United Methodist Church, which is selected article 6.  Methodist bishops rotate their pastors more often than every ten years.  There are only 10 articles, some of which have not been updated since 2011.  Pageviews are less than 1% of views of the lead article.
 * The portal was neglected because I created it and only maintained it... up until I didn't. It should have never been created, I agree. Still it's sad to see the demise of a page I created way back as a teenager. --Hazhk (talk) 18:13, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
 * I don't think anyone would object to userfying the page, if you wish to keep it around in some form. House Blaster  (talk · he/him) 23:38, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
