In portal deletion discussions, reference is always made to the Portal Guidelines. The guidelines state: 'Please bear in mind that portals should be about broad subject areas, which are likely to attract large numbers of interested readers and portal maintainers.'
Note that on 26 September 2019, per the discussion at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)/Archive 153#RFC: Formalize Standing of Portal Guidelines as a Guideline (18 July 2019), it was determined that there is clear consensus that the "Portal guidelines" are not, in fact, official guidelines.
