Portal:Theosophy

 * and all other subpages
 * and all other subpages

This is confusing. There are two versions of this religion Theosophy (Blavatskian) and Theosophy (Boehmian). The wikiquote more link leads to Buddhism. The selected article is a static outdated BIO with no references and there is only one selected bio. Portal project people have made the usual blanket "maintenance" edits but this has existed as a poor substitute for the article on the topic, but with an (undabbed title), for 4 years. No one has improved the page for a long time. WikiProject:Theosophy does not exist and this is not maintained by WikiProject:Religion Legacypac (talk) 22:35, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment - Courtesy ping: portal created 2015-01-24T22:55:13Z by User:Trinity9538. Pldx1 (talk) 14:23, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - Not mass-created, but created by an inactive user. The existence of two schools of thought both known as theosophy is not a negative factor, because a properly maintained portal could distinguish them, but this is not a properly maintained portal.  Legacypac's other arguments are valid, that this portal is not useful.  Robert McClenon (talk) 18:14, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment - It isn't necessary to !vote on the subpage because deletion of the parent page implies deletion of the subpages via G8. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:26, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete. Too narrow a scope.  WP:POG requires "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers", but this is not even a level 4 vital article (top 10,000 topics); it's a level 5 topic, i,e. top 50,000.
 * Even if it was good quality and well-maintained, it is too narrow a topic. The Jan-March 2019 daily pageviews are 21 per day, which is a little better than the single-figure average of most portals, but still less than one 400th of the 1,057/day average of the head article Theosophy (Blavatskian). -- Brown HairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 00:29, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
