Eclectika (festival)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

PROD contested by IP without giving any reason. The subject hardly has any coverage given the annual recurring nature of the event. Fails WP:NEVENTS. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 10:45, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:26, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: National level news paper The Times of India took notice of this festival which is rare for any college festival. That Times of India(TOI) news is of 2014, TOI also took notice of it in 2013 also. National level Hindi news also taking their note. -- Human 3015   Send WikiLove   13:39, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * There are various notability points mentioned on WP:EVENT and "took note" is not one of them. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 03:42, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I think WP:EVENT is saying that event should be "Worthy of Notice". The Times of India (TOI) is not only largest selling English daily in India but also in World in terms of circulation. TOI finds it "worthy of notice" and "took note" of this event. This event is not notable unless someone proves that these news are paid news.-- Human 3015   Send WikiLove   04:44, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, we have been interacting on many pages for now; thanks for hounding, and its quite clear that you lack competency to understand many a simple things; sorry to point it out. There is no in-depth coverage, or lasting effects of the event, or coverage outside geoscope, or diversity of coverage, etc etc points that are listed in guideline. Also, the minglebox link that you are posting is not WP:RS. http://www.minglebox.com/aboutus is a student's portal. Dainik Bhaskar which is a newspaper with headquarters in MP cared to write exactly 10 sentences about this event in Raipur. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {Talk / Edits} 05:32, 31 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Please don't WP:ACCUSE, there are other boards to raise this "hound" issue, not here. I will clear myself regarding sources, 2013 Times of India, 2014 Times of India. -- Human 3015   Send WikiLove   05:48, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Fails WP:GNG. Perhaps if more sourcing is added, a lot more, then it can be kept. FreeatlastChitchat (talk) 05:02, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete - the TOI mention is insufficient for this article to meet WP:GNG. sovereign°sentinel (contribs), 13:24, 5 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete for now as my searches found nothing better than this. SwisterTwister   talk  05:02, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
