NewsThump

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Satire website failing WP:GNG and WP:NWEB. No significant coverage in the one reliable source cited (HuffPo), and a Google search didn't turn any additional citations. Citrivescence (talk) 03:56, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

 * Comment - NewsThump might be one of the least google friendly topics I've hunted sources for - because it's a site that is always in the news, so their stories fill so many google results. Actually hunting for the few on itself could take a while, but I'm pretty confident they're there. Nosebagbear (talk) 23:05, 12 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep I believe the site meets the GNG and it and its peers are starting to get academic attention too due to the interest in the intersection between satire and fake news. Philafrenzy (talk) 21:13, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Looks like the article has been expanded sufficiently to show good coverage in multiple sources as a well-documented satire site. I added a bit too. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  21:53, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Keep Now passes, as per above. Bondegezou (talk) 18:40, 17 January 2019 (UTC)
