TalkEsport

 * – ( View AfD View log )

this isn't an notable esport coverage website. There are way too many esport news outlets in india, that doesn't make each of them notable. Warm Regards--- Abhay Esports Talk To Me  23:04, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Keep. TalkEsport is a very old one. Having independent mentions on TechRadar, Zee Business, Firstpost, Inc42, Sportskeeda etc sports and gaming related websites. According to Similarweb, this website is having 2.50 million active readers base. Already having existing as refearce for some articles on Wikipedia. -- Iamrajdeepdas (talk) 03:00, 25 June 2021 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment - The Deccan Herald seems to be a reliable-enough source, but I'm not sure if the article currently included would count as significant coverage or trivial coverage. Mlb96 (talk) 05:11, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete: There's an astromical amount of astroturfing with this website, to be clear. The Hindustantimes source I found is clearly something they purchased for themselves (it's posted by their brand page), the Business Standard article is paid content , and the Zee Business link seems to be the same ? While the TechRadar mention *does* seem to 'trust' TalkEsport's notability, it's basically just one re-blog. Willing to have my mind changed if folks can find non-astroturfed sources that properly meet WP:GNG.  Nomader  ( talk ) 18:57, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment - I value your opinion and I'm well are that PR and promotional articles can't represnt the proper notability always. That's why these articles excluded in the creation of the talkesport wikipedia page. Also, keep in note that the article coverage of TalkEsport on Zee Business is an independent one by the Zee Business team. TalkEsports ranks within top 5 esports news portal's in India in terms of popularity. Futhermore, inlcuding Techradar independent coverage can be found on Dot Esports, Digit_(magazine), AFaqs.com, News18 and several other top tier publications.

 * Delete: Popularity has nothing to do with notability. The sources are week and seems dependent. Pillechan  (പിള്ളേച്ചനോട് പറ)  14:06, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
