Recreation of African portals

Hello, 5 years ago a bunch of portals for African countries were deleted due to poor maintenance. As I noticed that consensus was to keep Portals for sub national entities of rich White countries with a population a fraction of a fraction of deleted countries (kept with a population under 100,000, deleted with a population over 10 MILLION) I am concerned of this being an example of systemic bias on the part of Wikipedia. If somebody could properly maintain African portals, I believe they would be a net positive for Wikipedia. Cheers, -1ctinus📝🗨 18:56, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

@1ctinus, you made a good point, but the problem is: is there any person/s willing to maintain them? I also strongly do not support the deletion of African portals (even though I wasn't then when it happened). Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 21:34, 29 September 2024 (UTC)

Aror, Kenya

This stub hasn’t been sourced yet in 15 years. The Swahili article has no citations. Can you please fix this? Bearian (talk) 01:42, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello. I sourced the English language article, although it is still only two sentences long. Pliny the Elderberry (talk) 01:25, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Mutau

The article Mutau has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved 15 years. No sources on the Fulfulde article, either. Run of the mill, very small village. Not enough information to merge.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
