Escdaily

 * – ( View AfD View log )

I'm bringing this to AFD rather than using a PROD as I usually would because there are a few google news hits for Escdaily. However all of them mention it only in passing, none are ABOUT Escdaily, but rather they use Escdaily as a primary source while reporting about Junior Eurovision.

In short, there are no sources here, so the article fails WP:V and WP:RS. HominidMachinae (talk) 08:08, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - No indication that this is notable, as it is only a website that reports on a music comp not sure how this is not CSD A7 - Web Content. Mtking (talk) 09:03, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
 * As I indicated above I erred on the side of caution because there was some scant news coverage that used them as a source (did not talk about them). I prefer to save CSD for when the case is remarkably clear to me, as an American this is outside my area of expertise.  If you want to put up a speedy tag you'll get no objection here.

 * Comment. I've declined the speedy deletion as they do appear be being used as a source in news articles, and there is also quite a few name matches in non-English news results where I don't know if they're a source, a quotee or the subject. It seems therefore that there might be notability and so letting this AfD run the course is the best option. This is without prejudice to the outcome of this discussion, about which I am neutral.

 * Keep. I was at the Eurovision Song Contest this year in Düsseldorf and Escdaily is certainly a source of news, although less so than ESCtoday which I believe was deleted a while ago. Escdaily also get press accreditation and they're certainly a major source of information and are quoted in other sources. --Tris2000 (talk) 14:36, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete I can't find an independent assessment of the website in English or German, only self-references and links from fanpages. I can't identify criteria of WP:INTERNET as met. Hekerui (talk) 21:05, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
