Bare bones portal on a video game series. Not
WP:X3 as a different creator.

Delete - A single video game and the unreal world created around it do not require a portal.

User:Happypillsjr you need to stop creating portals. The community RFC also applies to your many automated portal starts.

Weak Keep – Just meets
WP:POG, although some may consider the topic range to be too niche. North America1000 07:44, 26 March 2019 (UTC)reply
Delete - Nobody in
WP:VG uses or maintains portals.

Comment – How can you be certain that none of the WikiProject Video games members have ever used portals? Members of the project are denoted by placing {{User WPVG}} or
Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Advert on one of their user pages. For example, regarding the {{User WPVG}} template alone, there are over 1,700 users that are a member of the project:
It seems unlikely that all of these users have never used a portal before. North America1000 09:49, 26 March 2019 (UTC)reply
Sorry I should be more clear. I don't know if any VG member has ever used portals. Rather, I am saying that as a very active Project VG member, I have never seen VG portals discussed or edited by other members of the project. If you look that the histories of
the VG Portal,
Nintendo Portal,
PlayStation portal,
Sega Portal, and
Xbox portal, you will see that they were virtually unmaintained for years, and the only recent edits have been WP:Portal project editors. I feel that no one at the project cares for these, would rather see them go, and (personally) I would prefer that editors stop mass-imposing this system across the website when many already voiced their aversion to it.

Delete. Way too narrow. A Nintendo Portal makes way more sense. Way more history, way more broad.

Portalis deletus. I agree with the others. Put in a critic's language, Portal:Kirby tries so hard to imitate a Wikipedia portal that it takes every one of the very few Kirby concepts within the encyclopedia and carelessly jots them all down. The pencil-sized "portal" ends up leaving us the readers bored and slightly annoyed by the confusion caused by its disorganization in that there are more links to somewhere other than a Kirby article than it likes to boast, and it ends up being a distasteful waste of code and impostor.
