- (Time stamp for bot to properly relist.) DannyS712 (talk) 04:22, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
Single company portal like many others deleted as too narrow, but created before the mass creation spree. Legacypac (talk) 23:35, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Keep: They're a notable video game developer and a large multi-national company, not too sure how it wouldn't be a suitable topic for a portal. Namcokid47 (talk) 23:38, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- The basic idea is no individual company gets a portal. So Portal:Video games is a broad topic but a developer of video games is not. Portals get very few readers anyway so it is no big loss. Articles are where it's at. Legacypac (talk) 23:42, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- "no individual company gets a portal" could you point me to where you found this, please? Namcokid47 (talk) 23:10, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- @Namcokid47: WP:MfD/P:BK is the precedent for this. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 18:44, 13 April 2019 (UTC)

- Question - Does User:Namcokid47 plan to maintain the portal? Robert McClenon (talk) 02:17, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Much of the original work I put into that template has instead been nearly entirely replaced by higher ups, which was quite disappointing for me to see. I'll see if I can put some more effort into that portal, although I don't know if this thing will last that long for me to get on it, I'm rather busy. Namcokid47 (talk) 23:12, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Your work was indeed replaced but I would not call an editor who is now community banned from creating portals and has a user talk full of deletion notices a "higher up" Legacypac (talk) 09:34, 19 April 2019 (UTC)

- Comment - Old portal created 2017-07-16T23:44:21Z by User:Namcokid47. Waiting for a comment by a maintainer, if any: Portal:Bandai Namco Holdings. Pldx1 (talk) 11:26, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - The statement by the originator of this portal is that the portal platoon have broken the portal so that it is not being maintained. This probably applies to many other heritage portals. The limited focus was a problem anyway. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:54, 12 April 2019 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Fast Food Portals is good precedent. No portal for McD no portal for the toy co. Legacypac (talk) 23:32, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

- Delete as not a broad subject. I also agree with the "no portals for individual companies" viewpoint - otherwise editors may feel they need to create/keep a portal for their favorite brand (to "prove" that it deserves the recognition of having a portal) regardless of whether readers ever look at the portal and with all the negative effects of portals. DexDor (talk) 07:08, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - No portal for single companies. Moreover no intent to maintain. Pldx1 (talk) 08:18, 19 April 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - I give up at this point. Namcokid47 (talk) 12:02, 20 April 2019 (UTC)
