Portal:Anglicanism[edit]

Neglected portal.

Six selected articles from October - November 2007, four from February - April 2008, four from December 2008, two from April - May 2009 and four from July 2010. The only addition to any of those pages since they were created was this potentially contentious addition in 2008.

The 20 selected bios follow almost the same pattern of neglect over the same period of time. The bio for Gene Robinson is six years out of date. He retired in 2013. Mark Schierbecker (talk) 08:46, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Note to closing admin. I don't want in any way to prejudge the outcome ... but if you close this discussion as delete, please can you not remove the backlinks? I have an AWB setup which allows me to easily replace them with links to the next most specific portal(s) (in this case Portal:Christianity), without creating duplicate entries. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 09:32, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - In the first half of 2019, the portal had 32 average daily pageviews. The main article had 1806 daily pageviews. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:59, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and oppose re-creation per the nom and Robert McClenon. Too narrow a topic, not maintained, low readership, which adds up to a clear fail of the WP:POG requirement that portals should be about "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers". As Portal:Lutherinism, Portal:Oriental Orthodoxy, Portal:Eastern Orthodox Church, and Portal:Anabaptism‎ show, individual denominations or their denominational "family" rarely if ever make viable portals that readers and maintainers want.

Anglicanism[edit]

Weak Delete as a well-viewed (as portals go) but unmaintained portal. Better than most portals for number of articles, but articles are not being maintained. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:45, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and oppose re-creation per all above. Fails POG, as demonstrated by the lack of viewers and maintainers over time. -Crossroads- (talk) 23:13, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
