 * Keep. There are already over 20 English Wikipedia articles that use Thaindian News in their references.  That's a good indication that they run stories that other outlets and portals don't.  Wasted Time R (talk) 10:59, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
 * well, it exclusively carries wire copy and as such is not a "news source"... more like a newsblog. On the flipside, a paper like the Metro newspaper does the same... So, that argument is a bit weak. Just because it has been quoted on wikipedia, doesn't mean it is significant. That would be a circular argument in the making...
 * That was just an example. This google search shows over 700,000 hits for "Thaindian News", which means that a lot of other websites are referencing it too.  But I guess the real test is whether it meets WP:WEB.  Wasted Time R (talk) 23:11, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
