Portal:Sony PlayStation

Delete These two portals covering product families from single companies do not meet the breadth-of-subject-matter guidelines of the WP:POG guideline. Both can be more than adequately covered by Portal:Video games. UnitedStatesian (talk) 14:32, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nominator. Too narrow. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 14:56, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Different histories, but same problem. Neither is a broad area. Both were maintained briefly in the 2000s and no longer are maintained. Enough. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:08, 13 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete:

WP:POG scope failure
WP:PORTAL active maintenance failure

Merge - I'm beginning to think with more and more of these kinds of discussions WP:POG is being used as a reason to delete when it shouldn't. If you look at them just as portals for the consoles then yes they would be limited in scope but they cover more than just the hardware. Just because these portals are on a single product family doesn't mean they are not broad. I would recommend merging both of these into Portal:Sony and Portal:Microsoft respectively at the very least. Alucard 16_{❯❯❯ chat?} 15:01, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that Portal:Sony is up for deletion as well, and I expect Portal:Microsoft will come up for deletion also. Portal:Video games is the only logical merge target. UnitedStatesian (talk) 15:58, 14 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
