Portal:Tamil civilization
Like the Tamil Eelam and Dravidian civilizations portal, this was created along with the other two in May 2012, never updated, no work on it done, but it's been added to hordes of articles. No value to such stuff and it should be deleted or archived, but unlinked from mainspace. — Spaceman Spiff 19:40, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:NODEADLINE and WP:NOHARM There are several [Category:Inactive WikiProject] and [Category:Defunct WikiProjects]. See no point in deleting it.Tamil civilization is one of the oldest in the world and can be improved. 182.65.56.97 ( talk) 14:43, 3 September 2015 (UTC)
- Delete: I see no value in portals; not even the featured ones. May be when Wikipedia was new this space was of some use. But many portals are dead since long with no activity on them. Some editors believe that deletion of such portals implies that other portals are worth staying. That's a case of OSE. But we will have to look into this namespace now or later; so why not now? §§ Dharmadhyaksha§§ { Talk / Edits} 04:40, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
- Keep – A valid portal that can be quite easily expanded. I disagree with the notion in the nomination that there is "no value to such stuff". The portal presently provides an overview of the topic, and again, is expandable. North America 1000 02:42, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
