Delete Another abandoned mini-portal (5 articles, 4 biographies, 7 pictures) of the "Foo in/of Country" family, which fails the WP:POG guideline on breadth-of subject area grounds. Latest baseball "news" item is from more than two years ago, and as far as I can tell has nothing to do with Japan. As in the other cases, the subject can be more than adequately covered by the parent portal, in this case, Portal:Baseball. UnitedStatesian (talk) 02:00, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Redundant to and detracting of Baseball in Japan. —SmokeyJoe (talk) 10:01, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete Another abandoned mini-portal.
- WP:POG requires that portals should be about "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers". This portal does not pass that test: it has not attracted maintainers, and it has not attracted readers. In Jan–Feb 2019, it got only 4 pageviews per day, compared with 140 daily views for the head article Baseball in Japan. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 13:16, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- Delete as per nominator, and analysis by BHG. The following statistics compare the portal to the two parent portals:
| Title | Portal Page Views | Article Page Views | Ratio | Percent | Comments | Articles | Notes | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Japan | 104 | 16002 | 153.87 | 0.65% | Complex sets of subarticles, last maintenance appears to have been in 2018. | 116 | Originator has died. | Country |
| Baseball in Japan | 4 | 140 | 35.00 | 2.86% | No maintenance since 2011. | 9 | Other sports | |
| Baseball | 38 | 2742 | 72.16 | 1.39% | Originator last edited in 2014. Last maintenance in 2014. | 23 | Other sports |
This portal is redundant to Portal:Baseball and has not been maintained. Even a design that did not use partial page copies would not be of much help. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:47, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
