Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Lagomorpha
An abandoned portal about narrow topic (Portal:Animals would be enough) linked only in 5 articles in main space. Not supported by any Wikiproject. Page views in the past 30 days, 240, against 17,882 views of main article. Created in 2010, it has received recent editions, but they have maintained the portal's obsolete structure.

- Delete as an unmaintained, little-used portal with an obsolete architecture. The portal was established in 2010 by a user who last maintained it in 2014. It had drive-by maintenance between 2018 and 2020 by two editors who have liked to do drive-by maintenance on portals because they like portals. Maybe they think that portals have some mystical value, because they have not explained what portals do that cannot be done with categories and links. The portal had an average of 7 daily pageviews in calendar 2023, as contrasted with 752 for the article Lagomorpha, and had 8 average daily pageviews in calendar 2022, as contrasted with 652 for the article. The portal was renamed in 2019, having previously been Portal: Rabbits and hares. This portal has the old architecture with subpages that are partial copies of the 16 selected articles. This means that if the selected articles are updated, the portal displays the old text of the article. This means that an extinct hare subspecies may be displayed as a critically endangered hare subspecies, or a deceased zoologist may be displayed as a living zoologist. Portals with this obsolete architecture should either be deleted or re-engineered. In view of the lack of maintenance and the lack of viewing, this portal should be deleted.
