Abandoned portal, on Quebec City. Two boxes, one of articles, one for biogs, but each has only two items, and none has been updated since 2010. This is just a set of 4 old content forks

Special:PrefixIndex/Portal:Quebec City shows a modest set of sub-pages:
... but all are unchnaged since 2010. /Selected biography/2 still proclaims that Pauline Marois is leader of the PQ, a role she left in 2014.
WP:POG#How_often_to_update? says that unless automated, the content selection should be updated monthly, or preferably weekly. Even on a monthly cycle, this pseudo-portal has missed over 100 updates. That's the nearly-universal problem with these collections of content forked sub-pages: they have to be maintained, but rarely are.
Per WP:PORTAL, "Portals serve as enhanced 'Main Pages' for specific broad subjects". But this is massively less useful in every respect than the B-class head article Quebec City.
WP:POG guides that portals should be about "broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers". This one has not attracted maintainers for 9 nine years, and the city has a population of only 500,000 ... so I propose that this portal and its sub-pages be deleted, with prejudice against re-creation.
