Jambi is a province of Indonesia, with a population of 3 million. However, as with many other non-English-speaking areas, en.wp's coverage is thin: the entire tree of
Category:Jambi+subcats contains only 18 non-stub, non-biographical articles, so it does not even meet the risibly low bare minimum of 20 set by the fans of mass-created auto-portals at
WP:WPPORT.
Hopefully some day en.wp's coverage of this region will expand, but as of now there simply aren't enough articles to justify a portal.
This portal is yet another auto-generated drive-by creation of portal-spammer @
The Transhumanist, and it is so badly configured that its selected article list contains only a single page. That could theoretically be fixed, but since there are not enough articles anyway, there is no reason to keep this page in the hope that in far-off some day there may be more articles and the portal may actually be curated. Better to just
WP:TNT it; there is nothing here worth preserving, and this portal-to-one-page is simply a waste of readers' time.

Extended list of bundled pages

The list of portals has a bunch more. There are 34 in total Provinces of Indonesia: :
Redlinked ones are planned and copied from the list. While they are first order subdivisions of the country, Indonesia is not a federation and the provinces are created for administrative convenience, not because of any historical reasons (compare to countries like Canada, USA, Germany, and Switzerland where most first level subdivisions have a historical identity and significant self governing powers). Many of these provinces have been formed in the last 20 years out of other provinces. Indonesia is better broken into 7 geographic regions which are each somewhat culturally distinct from each other. I've been to some of them and can say travelers will not generally notice they are in this or that province within Kalimantan or Java but that there are cultural differences between those regions, and especially the region of Western New Guinea. These portals are so useless at least some don't even have a map. Legacypac ( talk) 22:23, 16 March 2019 (UTC) All the ones that say "current rollback vandalism" are pages that have never been touched since creation. Given the rate of creation, were these pages even looked at when created?
