Another pointless micro-portal, this time for the University of Phoenix. There is nowhere near enough content to justify a portal. Template:University of Phoenix lists the head article plus 3 other articles; Category:University of Phoenix adds 3 more, giving a grand total of only 7 pages.
7 pages is way below even the risible minimum of 20 articles set by the portal-creation-club, and its barely enough to make a useful navbox. There is simply no navigational purpose to having a portal for such a narrow topic, because a navbox does the job better: less bulky, clearer list of options, and visible on the same page as each article.

- Delete – not enough articles present in main namespace to qualify a portal for this topic (see WP:PORTG). North America1000 03:31, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete I've proposed changing WP:CSD P2 from 3 non-stub articles to 20 as even the portal fans think they need 20 articles. Legacypac (talk) 03:35, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - The portal fans only say that they need 20 articles. They would probably create 5.5 million portals if we let them. See User:Robert McClenon/Oversized Queries. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:01, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
- Or more. I found Portal:University of Nebraska and Portal:University of Nebraska-Lincoln which share the same base article. That's what happens when you use a script to automatically make batches of portals at the rate of 40 per hour. You can't even remember what you did. Legacypac (talk) 15:45, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
- Delete for the usual reasons. Fram (talk) 13:20, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
- Keep, pending establishment of criteria. Universities are clearly going to be generally of sufficient encyclopedic interest among readers to support portals. We should probably figure out some criteria for them, though (not everything with "University" in its name is directly comparable). See more detailed rationale (including "University of Foo at Bar" cases), at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 18:07, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
