Fast Food Portals
- Portal:McDonald's ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Portal:Wendy's ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
- Portal:KFC ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
These mass created automated portals should also be deleted the same as Portal:Starbucks and Portal:Burger King and the way Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Subway (restaurant) is going. Portal:Fast food, Portal:Deep frying, Portal:Hamburgers and Portal:Companies should cover these chains. Legacypac ( talk) 22:47, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- Um, okay. You're so hellbent on pushing this agenda that you can no longer be bothered to offer a rationale? Considering how widespread McDonald's is across the world, this is an easy leaning keep.

- Delete. We are not supposed to provide for free another corporate advertising web page. Pldx1 ( talk) 23:08, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep- This is an unfair nomination. This is a copy-and-paste keep vote due to the large number of nominations stating I have reviewed these portal and believe it passes WP:POG.-- Happypillsjr ✉ 00:01, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
- What is unfair about my handcrafted nomination of pages you started? More time, effort and thought went into building this MFD then went into the one click wonder pages it seeks to delete. Legacypac ( talk) 00:07, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete per precedent of Portal:Burger King; topic is too narrow. The other portals Legacypac mentioned are good enough. Ten Pound Hammer • ( What did I screw up now?) 00:58, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep McDonald's portal, delete others. Given the massive international popularity of McDonald's and the number of McDonald's-specific articles we have, there is very, very clearly enough scope for the McDonald's portal. Lepricavark ( talk) 01:12, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
Keep Portal:McDonald's – Passes WP:POG with a diverse and large amount of content available on Wikipedia about the topic (e.g. Category:McDonald's), and for having a sufficiently broad topical scope. After all, it's the largest restaurant chain in the world by revenue, and has restaurants in over 100 countries.North America 1000 10:52, 6 April 2019 (UTC)- Comment – Struck my !vote above. Neutral at this time. North America 1000 16:52, 7 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. McDonald's isn't a broad subject; fast food may be (and there is Portal:Fast food - incidentally that lists about 90 related portals, but doesn't include McDonald's). Portals for specific companies (or people, for that matter) are generally a bad idea as they are likely to lead to continual battles as editors argue that their favorite brand "deserves" a portal.

- Delete - McDonald's may be a large company but it is by no means a broad subject. A single company is just too narrow a topic for a portal to actually be useful and meaningful. Portals are supposed to help navigate very broad subjects - McDonald's doesn't need it - and these mass created portals are hardly helpful at all even if it needed one.

- Delete 3 more useless portals. CoolSkittle ( talk) 14:46, 8 April 2019 (UTC)
