 * Keep: The article on NewsClick should be retained as it satisfies Wikipedia's notability criteria and is in line with Wikipedia policies.
 * 1. Significant Coverage in Reliable Sources: The article is based on significant coverage in reliable sources, as evidenced by the references provided. These sources include reputable news outlets such as The Indian Express, The Hindu, Hindustan Times, and others, which have reported on NewsClick's activities and controversies over a period of time. This demonstrates that NewsClick has received substantial attention and coverage beyond just recent events.

Multiple Independent Sources: The references used in the article come from multiple independent sources, indicating that NewsClick's activities and controversies have been widely reported and analyzed by various media organizations. This aligns with Wikipedia's requirement for verifiability and reliable sourcing.
 * 3. Long-Term Impact and Relevance: The controversies surrounding NewsClick have raised questions about press freedom, journalistic integrity, and the use of stringent laws. These issues have long-term implications and are of public interest, making them relevant for inclusion in an encyclopedia.
 * 4. Notability by Merit: NewsClick's notability is not solely based on recent controversies but also on its role as an independent media organization with a focus on progressive movements and independent journalism. Its history, mission, and contributions to journalism make it notable by merit.

 * In light of these points and in accordance with Wikipedia's notability policies including WP:GNG, WP:SIGCOV and others, I believe the article on NewsClick should be kept, as it meets the criteria for notability and provides valuable information to Wikipedia readers.  ❯❯❯  Chunky aka Al Kashmiri   (✍️) 15:50, 3 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep - Obviously notable, more than passing mention in multiple top level sources with significant coverage, including the New York Times this morning. The appeal to RECENTISM doesn't do anything at all to diminish the notability of the subject, RECENTISM isn't a notability guideline. WilsonP NYC (talk) 16:31, 3 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep - Obviously notable, like WinsonP NYC says above. AltruisticHomoSapien (talk) 21:09, 3 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Keep - per above. Article has 3rd party sources and subject has generated enough controversy to be notable. Sure, it might seem like WP:Recentism but there are events from pre-2023 and there could be more controversy later. ❤History  Theorist❤  02:06, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
