[edit] Portal:New Age

Portal evidently hasn't been updated for some time, and doesn't seem to have gotten much any attention of any kind. And I wonder, referring to the human stupidity section, who it's supposed to be differentiating from. Robot stupidity, maybe? Portal might, conceivably, have some use, like regarding the articles in the Category:New Age, but even then I question whether a lot of the editors involved in the content in that category would "like" being put on this portal, given the fact that many people see "new age" as being a bit of a perjorative phrase. Creator of the portal is being notified of this discussion, but he's been inactive since October so I'm not necessarily expecting a response. John Carter (talk) 21:33, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

• Keep, as the portal has a legitimate topic, and merely requires more maintenance. I have removed the transclusion of Portal:New Age/Things you can do, which is comprised entirely of the original research essay described above. John254 02:10, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
• Delete. Would be a keep if there were something here, but most of the content boxes are empty. Given the (lack of) edit history on the portal, it looks as though it just never got fleshed out. In particular, the lack of any navigational content (except to other portals!) makes it absolutely useless to the reader. Zetawoof_(ζ) 11:37, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
