Portal:Quebec


old portal not maintained since 2010 with no maintainers and a dead project attached to it Moxy 🍁 00:52, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete This portal has been abandoned for over eight years and was never completed, which is why most of its sub-pages are littered with red links to never added materials. It clearly fails WP:POG's requirement that portals should be about subjects broad enough to attract large numbers of maintainers and readers. This portal has had over eight years of no maintainers and it had a very low 17 views per day in June and July 2019 (despite the head article Quebec having 3561 views per day in the same period). Portals stand or fall on their merits in the now, not what could someday hypothetically happen with them, and this one falls flat. I am strongly against allowing recreation, as nearly a decade of hard evidence shows Quebec is not a broad enough topic to attract readers or maintainers.

 * Delete - I concur with the analysis by NH12. Portal has only 11 articles, has not been maintained for eight years, and has low pageview rates.  Robert McClenon (talk) 03:28, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete per nominator and per @Newshunter12.
 * This is yet another a long-abandoned. I explored Special:PrefixIndex/Portal:Quebec, and checked the 8 selected articles and 3 selected biogs, and verified the nominator's assertion that they have all been abandoned since 2010.
 * I also checked Portal:Quebec/Did you know. The last additions to that page were in 2010. Each of those additions are fake DYKs, which never appeared on WP:DYK.  The first six entries on the page were added in 2007, and only 3 of the 6 appear to be derived from WP:DYK.  This is just an antique collection of WP:TRIVIA.
 * I also oppose recreation. We have a decade's evidence that editors don't want to maintain this one. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 16:19, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
