Portal:Artificial intelligence

Portal:Artificial intelligence (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Extremely out-of-date portal.

  • Delete per the nom. This Bonsai portal has been abandoned for about a decade save some one-off updates by passing editors, and is 15 articles short of POG's minimum of 20. It clearly fails WP:POG's requirement that portals should be about subjects broad enough to attract large numbers of readers and maintainers. This abandoned portal has had a decade of no steady maintainers and it had a low 45 views per day from January 1 to June 30 2019 (while the head article Artificial intelligence had 9,368 views per day in the same period).
WP:POG also states portals should be associated with a WikiProject, but Wikipedia:WikiProject Artificial Intelligence is just a redirect to Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer science, where this portal has never been mentioned on the talk page and is not listed by name on the main page. Portals stand or fall on their merits in the now, not what could someday hypothetically happen with them, and this one falls flat. I oppose re-creation, as a decade of hard evidence shows Artificial intelligence is not a broad enough topic to attract readers and maintainers.

  • Delete - Abandoned portal. Originator came, did their thing, and went, all in 2007. Only four articles, and only drive-by edits in the past decade. There is no short-term reason to expect that a re-creation of this portal will address the problems. Any proposed re-creation of this portal using a more modern design, and taking into account the failures of many portals, and including a maintenance plan (since lack of maintenance is a problem with most portals), can go to Deletion Review.

  • Delete per nominator. Yet another long-abandoned portal, this time in a very fast-moving field. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 03:00, 6 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
