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.

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