Hip hop is a legacy portal mainly constructed by User:Moxy. The last substantive edit to improve the page was in 2010. This one was automated into junk state - but no one cared. It was then reverted to abandoned state which is just another type of junk. The fixed selected article is a repeat of the introduction complete with the same image. The associated WikiProject has a few posts on it's talkpage but no discussions visible so essentially no meaningful activity. Very few readers visit this portal anyway so it is not attracting wide reader interest as required by WP:POG and is obviously not attracting much editor interest except by those editors doing general portal changes to categorize or automate or deautomate pages.
Portal Hip-hop dance is a TTH portal a minute job well within the scope of Hip hop. Having another portal more fine grained below a portal that is not heing maintained is not helpful to anyone. Legacypac (talk) 19:50, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment. I'm the last person to comment on American popular music but hip hop seems a broad enough topic to support a portal. Espresso Addict (talk) 22:41, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
- You would think, but no one seems to care to build a proper portal, just a duplicate one. Legacypac (talk) 22:48, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - Automated portal, 0 subpages, created 2018-08-18 20:51:55, to be deleted: Portal:Hip-hop dance. Pldx1 (talk) 18:09, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Comment - Old portal, 17 subpages, created 2006-01-27 17:08:41 by User:Urthogie. A comment by a maintainer, if any, could make the day. Portal:Hip hop. Pldx1 (talk) 18:09, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - The fact that neither the automated form nor the restored manual form is satisfactory or in good condition speaks for itself. Willing to reconsider if maintainer comments, but not promising to support a keep. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:51, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
