National Sports Awards (India) → National Sports Awards – The Indian Sports Awards are clearly the primary topic. They have been continuously awarded from 1956, receive a lot of media attention and the only four award pages existing in 2019 received more than 1.25 million pageviews in 2019. Compared to Bangladesh's Sports Awards which seems to have been stopped from 2012 and the page received a total of about 8500 pageview in 2019, which is 150 times lesser than Indian sports award pages.

@Roller26: Many nations have national sports awards or similar. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 08:56, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
comment perhaps the base page should be a set index page -- 67.70.32.97 (talk) 09:23, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Anthony Appleyard:, @67.70.32.97: I request you to do so some research before posting generic statements that you feel should be true but isn't. The specific term "National Sports Award(s)" is only used by Bangladesh and India. The only country coming close to using this term is Belgium with Belgian National Sports Merit Award which does not make sense to club with "National Sports Award". Also this page is so popular that it a garnered a total of 632 pageviews in the whole of 2019.[2] You can check other major sports award at Category:National sportsperson-of-the-year trophies and awards and by simple WP search for the term "National Sports Award(s)". Also my research only pertains to pages on WP, if some notable award with similar name is lurking about without its own page, we can deal with it when the page is made. There is no need to make room for every possible contingency. Also the page National Sports Awards has been existing since 2015, I only moved it yesterday to National Sports Awards (Bangladesh) to make way for the above move.

... that the annual Indian sports awards ceremony at the Presidential Palace includes awards for adventure, top performing university, and sports promotion? Source: National Sports Awards 2019 announced, National Sports Awards 2020 announced

Comment: List of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award recipients has been added later. Note that this article was created on 27-September-2020 not following "the 7 day rule". However as per D9 criteria, I believe its eligible as the backlogs of the hooks is quite manageable right now. Also it makes the hook more interesting. The rest 3 articles follow all the DYK rules. If the reviewer or promoter does not feel that the above article can be allowed, then review for the rest 3 articles and the hook without the word adventure.
There are 3 articles to be reviewed

Comment: @Roller26: if you were a first-time nominator, there would be room for leniency on the date. But as you have enough DYK credits to be doing QPQs, I don't think it's appropriate to allow an 18-day lead time for the nomination of List of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award recipients. You could include it in the hook without a bolded link. Yoninah (talk) 21:53, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah:, I am not asking for any leniency, though its understandable for a first-time nominator. I thought that the 7 day rule, was pretty stone set until I chanced upon the D9 criteria in the Supplementary guidelines, which doesn't mention a first-time nominator. As I have mentioned in the comment above that I have added the List of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award recipients later after the nomination and it can be not allowed by a reviewer or promoter. I just included it as it makes the hook a little more interesting. Also I am not experienced enough to understand what "large backlog of hooks" as mentioned in D9 truly means. But seeing as we are only running on 1 set of hooks per day and also that very few hooks haven't been reviewed atleast once in the nominations section, I felt that currently we don't seem to have a case of "large backlog of hooks". However the final decision to include or not include it, lies with you and any other senior contributor. Roller26 (talk) 17:10, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, I have no idea what D9 is doing there, especially if it could be argued that an 18-day-old article qualifies because we have a backlog of unreviewed hooks. I'd like to bring this up at WT:DYK. Yoninah (talk) 17:17, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The word adventure as been un-bolded as per WT:Did you know#Rule D9 and the nomination for List of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award recipients removed. Roller26 (talk) 05:02, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Ready for full review. Yoninah (talk) 18:52, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

These three articles are new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the articles are neutral and I detected no copyright issues. Three QPQs have been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:43, 30 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I came by to promote this. I don't see an inline cite in any of the bolded articles verifying that the award ceremony is held at the Presidential Palace. Shouldn't the first bolded link say annual India sports awards? Please also add a caption for the infobox images in Maulana Abul Kalam Azad Trophy, Rashtriya Khel Protsahan Puruskar, and List of Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award recipients. Yoninah (talk) 00:45, 3 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah:, I have done all the changes. However I think that the phrase "annual Indian sports awards" is grammatically correct. Roller26 (talk) 19:22, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Restoring tick per Cwmhiraeth's review. Yoninah (talk) 22:24, 19 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
