| :::The example, [[Hungary#Historic_Counties_of_the_Kingdom_of_Hungary|Historic Counties of the Kingdom of Hungary]], shows that all the historic counties have active links to county pages that are currently portal pages. If the portal pages are deleted, the links to those portal pages will still be on the [[Hungary#Historic_Counties_of_the_Kingdom_of_Hungary|Historic Counties of the Kingdom of Hungary]] page, only now they would be red links because the associated portals would have been deleted. Therefore, my proposal for the conversion process in this case was to make sure the links to those portal pages were changed to links to un-portal pages so that the portal pages were not accidently recreated. --[[User:JensenFA|Fran]] 23:44, 13 December 2009 (UTC) | | :::The example, [[Hungary#Historic_Counties_of_the_Kingdom_of_Hungary|Historic Counties of the Kingdom of Hungary]], shows that all the historic counties have active links to county pages that are currently portal pages.

| ::OK for these portal without any content, any link to them should be changed from ''<nowiki>[[Portal:Someplace]]</nowiki>'' to ''<nowiki>[[Someplace]]</nowiki>'' (use ''What links here'' from the toolbox). This will change the link to a ''redlink''. Then the portal with no content and no links to it, can be marked with {{tl|DeleteASAP}}. --[[User:Cottrells|Steve]] 14:07, 14 December 2009 (UTC) | | ::OK for these portal without any content, any link to them should be changed from ''<nowiki>[[Someplace]]</nowiki>'' to ''<nowiki>[[Someplace]]</nowiki>'' (use ''What links here'' from the toolbox).
