Portal:Country Music
Underpopulated, abandoned portal; hasn't been touched in over a year. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ( Broken clamshells• Otter chirps) 19:04, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment: Not that it makes much difference, but it was last edited in August 2007 [1] which is only about 9 months of inactivity. It does seem to be inactive, regardless of the time frame. — Gavia immer ( talk) 19:16, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- delete: only linked to 10 or so articles.--

- Do you see the topics and categories boxes? Far more than 10 articles here. Ultra! 16:25, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
- It isn't exactly underpopulated, there are hundreds of country music articles out there, but it's inactive and not greatly done, so weak keep-- Phoenix - wiki 20:26, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Delete, appears to be abandoned and better handled by Portal:Music. Collectonian ( talk) 21:57, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Strong keep Inactivity is certainly not the reason to delete. Thousands of articles on the subject exist, unlike portals Punk rock, classical guitar, Motorhead or Powderfinger.

- Comment: On the one hand, country music is a subject for which a portal is obviously justified. On the other, a static portal is not really carrying out the function of a portal, which is to introduce a subject and highlight and direct readers toward particularly relevant or high-quality content. Portal pages are not 'essential' pages in the way that articles are, but recreating the portal from scratch would probably require substantially more effort than developing the current portal. (Then again, a user could ask any admin to undelete the content.) – Black Falcon ( Talk) 01:05, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
