hmm.. I am unsure but you don't seem to be agreeing with NWEB guideline. It is a reasonable query that why would a newspaper, magazine or web portal write about one among them. What is one supposed to receive is 'mention', -about their contents in other reliable media independent of them and that's
389:
I think, you are looking for sources that are fully centric on subject and seeking to establish GNG. But there is another criteria, particularly for websites, a website may be considered worthy of inclusion per WEBCRIT#1, -if its content has been published by multiple independent, reliable sources.
353:
The problem I have with most, if not all of those sources is the "non-trivial" bit. All of them are about the Indian motor industry, and have a brief mention to someone in Motoroids giving a passing mention on the subject in hand. What I could really do with is something that actually talks
231:
reliable news hits that mention the site. As I don't have enough knowledge of the motor industry or India, I think AfD is the best place to discuss what we do with it. An article with this title has been at AfD before, but I can't easily tell if it was the same thing.
519:, specifically "trivial coverage, such as: a brief summary of the nature of the content". I'm not trying to be a grumpy old deletionist here; seriously, if you can point me in the direction of a couple of sources that have Motoroids as their 510:
Motoroids, briefly discusses its history, its popularity, and any famous controversies - but I can't find anything beyond articles about other things that say "Motoroid's 'x' says 'y'". The best source I've found is
195: 226:
This website is a bit of an oddity. A Google news search for its name brings up many many hits on its own website, all related to the Indian automotive industry, and a web search brings up a smattering of
553:
Here you are asking to delete it because it doesn't meet GNG, I'm to keep it because it does meet NWEB. If we had to determine notability of websites by GNG, we would not have NWEB at first place.
93: 88: 83: 148: 270: 366:
clean up the article, but without some good solid sources that have Motoroids as their main topic, not just as a soundbite, I'd struggle to be able to write anything.

and that has one paragraph that says little more than "motoroids is a motoring website and forum". That's it. To me, that fails
506:
I'm exhausted. I've been through about 5-6 pages each of web, news and book searches just to find a source that is specifically
299:
the content itself has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the site itself..

if this AfD closes as "Keep" but the article still cites little more than itself, Facebook or Alexa, wouldn't you say?
402: 305: 40: 177: 408: 323: 523:, I will happily improve the article myself and withdraw this AfD. But until I find them, that can't happen. Sorry. 108: 512: 329: 311: 441:
I am not sure what can we do with these sources, but subject appears to be satisfying our inclusion criteria.
