Doesn't meet notability requirements of WP:WEB. Some of the references don't even mention the Times of Assam. -- haminoon  ( talk ) 21:13, 23 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Doesn't meet notability? How come? Still, many citations can be included from published books, though, I have used a few only. Which reference doesn't mention the Times of Assam? Can you please figure out? Or you are just using your seniority power?

I appeal against deletion. --;Preceding unsigned comment added by Arunudoy 02:19, 24 June 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete as per nom. and also, just a simple mentioning of name of the site (and, its news coverage) in books and journal doesn't qualify it to pass WP:GNG and WP:NWEB. -Hatchens (talk) 08:24, 24 June 2020 (UTC)


 * What asked in notability? Citation? It will be a myth always.
 * OK, delete as you want to. But please clarify some of my doubts. What about this page Gaurav Arya? How much notable? And about Sri Lanka Guardian, Weekly Blitz?

 * Comment My sincere apology. Actually I was misguided seeing these https://www.fastcompany.com/90471667/how-wikipedia-volunteers-became-the-webs-best-weapon-against-misinformation, https://thegrayzone.com/2020/06/10/wikipedia-formally-censors-the-grayzone-as-regime-change-advocates-monopolize-editing/ and https://consortiumnews.com/2020/06/15/uprising-narrative-control-operations-escalate-as-america-burns/.


 * Delete per nomitor and Hatchens. Note that the other articles mentioned by Arunudoy may be proposed for deletion if they wish, but this discussion page is only about this particular article as every article is judged on its own merits.   JW 1961   Talk  21:57, 24 June 2020 (UTC)


 * KEEP As this says "...just a simple mentioning of name of the site (and, its news coverage) in books and journal doesn't qualify it to pass WP:GNG and WP:NWEB. -Hatchens (talk) 08:24, 24 June 2020 (UTC)", now what are the criteria for citation and editing? -- 06:03, 25 June 2020 (UTC) - — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arunudoy (talk • contribs)
 * Comment: Kindly refer to WP:NMEDIA and also, again refer to WP:NWEB. And from the next time, try to sign your posts appropriately to avoid confusion. -Hatchens (talk) 05:14, 26 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete - no assertion of notability; arguments in favour of keeping are nothing better than WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS Spiderone  19:34, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
