Delete A portal that doesn't know what it is. Title and subject article refer to the eight-country regional organization founded in 1985 (which falls far short of the breadth-of-subject-area requirement of the WP:POG guideline), but the selections are taken randomly from everything in the South Asia region (Indus Valley Civilization is the selected article as I write this, which predates SAARC by five thousand years). First nomination at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:SAARC speaks for itself. This mess should be deleted. UnitedStatesian (talk) 02:17, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as a heritage portal that, as the nominator says, may be about an international association, or about nations, or something. No prejudice against a future portal (although I am prejudiced against portals).  Robert McClenon (talk) 18:48, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. I agree the scope is unclear, though it would perhaps be feasible to have a portal about the countries in this organisation it is unclear to me how fundamentally that would differ from one on South Asia. The head article has an orange-level tag. Espresso Addict (talk) 20:43, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. This mishmash isn't about SAARC at all.   It's just a badly-implemented portal on an apparently random assortment of topics relating to South Asia. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 13:49, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
