Portal:Winter Paralympics

About 1/2 the scope of Portal:Paralympics which already covers the winter version and it's sports. This makes it fully redundant to the other portal. Legacypac (talk) 22:41, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
 * (struck my !vote ) Keep for now . The Summer and Winter Paralympics  are really separate events.  Held in different years in different locations, with little or no overlap in competitors.
 * I think that a complete split might be the best way ahead. This needs more investigation. -  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 02:56, 23 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep – Has an adequate amount of content on Wikipedia about the topic, as denoted in part by the category tree below, and also a decent amount of Recognized content, which can be viewed here. Meets portal guidelines. North America1000 03:18, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Your keep vote ignored the basis of this nomination completely. I don't dispute there is plenty of articles (maybe even great articles) but there is already a portal covering the event. Legacypac (talk) 06:42, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete - Old portal, 81 subpages, created 2014-02-05 17:45:30 by User:LauraHale. Quite each time you look at one of these so called Portals, you obtain anything except from a navigation tool. Last editorial edit to any snippet I have checked = 2014. Portal:Winter Paralympics/Selected Games is made of four snippets... all about Great Britain. And, obviously, 2018 is too recent for this unmaintained object. Without prejudice of (1) having a maintainer (2) rewriting everything from scratch. Portal:Winter Paralympics.

 * Keep While the portal is old, it meets the portal guidelines. No problem with having a separate portal for the Winter Paralympics. There is one Australian athlete who has competed in both, but the overlap between the two is small, and Paralympics is usually considered to be the summer games. When the portal deletion push is over, the portal will be updated in time for the next games in Beijing.  Hawkeye7   (discuss)  22:55, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I doubt it will be updated based on history. If this is kept then I'll nominate Portal:Paralympics as redundant to the Winter one. There is no Portal:Summer Paralympics but that is not a reason to have two portals coving the same ground. Legacypac (talk) 00:52, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Portal:Paralympics covers both the summer and winter incarnations, so this portal is redundant to the parent, making it contrary to the WP:POG guideline. UnitedStatesian (talk) 21:44, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete for the above reasons, and because when a deletion spree went wrong on May the 4th, it caused this portal to look like the above sea of red, and no one at all noticed or care about it for the past four days. If anyone needed evidence that it is unmaintained and not really missed when it is gone... Fram (talk) 09:26, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete (changing my !vote) . I was initially inclined to keep for now, with the idea that there should be  separate portals for summer and winter paralympics, but this portal clearly isn't being maintained.  Whatever editorial energy is available here would be better concentrated on the combined portal. --  Brown HairedGirl  (talk) • (contribs) 13:56, 8 May 2019 (UTC)
