The result of the discussion was: Procedural keep per WP:SNOW. I would've !voted instead of closing, but the consensus is overwhelmingly clear this was not a proper group nomination. We don't need another one of these [which still awaits closure after all this time]. ( non-admin closure) – MJL ‐Talk‐ ☖ 04:47, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Biographies are a broad topic that could satisfy WP:POG? After the discussions below I believe is a consensus of the community that does not. Whatever the biography of a person, it is "per se" a narrow topic and will necessarily bring the same information of the article. The named biographies are a "hard test", it is a consensus that they are extremely vital, but the question is the portals, not the biographies.

I am providing metrics on average daily pageviews for the portal and the head article between 1 January 2019 and 28 February 2019, and brief comments. However, the portals are not comparable. The Shakespeare and Mozart portals, although developed in different decades, are designed without the use of partial page copies, and so automatically update the presented articles when the articles are edited. I am ready to make recommendations on whether to keep or delete these portals if they are evaluated in separate MFD items. The Lovecraft portal was the subject of a recent MFD that was closed as No Consensus, and so should probably not be considered again without either a new rationale or new information.
