Portal:Country Music
There was almost a consensus to eliminate this portal last year. Except for one vandalism revert and the last MFD, it has had no edits whatsoever since August 2007, and the last edits were by a user who left the project that same month. Notwithstanding my constant frustration with the beyond-stagnant state of most country music articles, I simply see no point in a portal that has just been gathering cobwebs for so long. Almost all of the incoming links are from {{
Countrybanner}} anyway (which itself is found on the deadest talk pages you'll ever see), but that template can easily be fixed to remove the portal link should the portal be deleted. Grok.se is down right now, so I can't tell how many hits this portal has had, but I'd say "not many" is the answer. Roughly
20 hits a day ain't much.

- Weak weak keep Still useful, even if unchanged. It is not set up to date quickly. Does anyone use portals any way? Graeme Bartlett ( talk) 21:13, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
- Very weak keep - Portals don't have to be updated if they're on rotation. Pending results on how many hits it gets, I can't see any reason to delete it. John Carter ( talk) 21:56, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
- Keep. Attractive and useful portal. yes, it would be good if there were more activity on it, but as it stands it's fine. Rhinoracer ( talk) 09:58, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- Keep Unless, of course, we set a minimum usage for any page of more than 20 per day? Note this would likely cut out more than half of WP <g>. Collect ( talk) 19:48, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
