Nicely framed. Advertisement of a Non notable educational website which has no significant coverage with in-depth information and also fails WP:GNG. DJRSD (talk) 07:21, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I disagree that it fails WP:GNG. A Google News search reveals a wealth of articles that constitute significant coverage. The page needs a facelift, not deletion. Gargleafg (talk) 22:37, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Doubtnut is a big ed-tech startup company, and similar to Vedantu, BYJU'S, Unacademy etc. It pass Wikipedia:Notability with Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) points. Looking at the contribution history[1] of the person who listed it for an AfD, it much more like a joke. - Iamrajdeepdas (talk) 07:02, 31 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Iamrajdeepdas, What is the joke in my contributions? DJRSD (talk) 16:34, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Seems like Iamrajdeepdas and Huzaifa abedeen are using Wikipedia for advertisement, look at the contributions of both users. DJRSD (talk) 16:36, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
No, I don't use Wikipedia for advertisement, please look at my contribution. I am a high school science student and I study science and maths in Doubtnut app. Huzaifa abedeen (talk) 03:35, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment@DJRSD: You have already been answer related to your contribution history on this page [2]. Now coming to the point, Doubnut is having significant and independent coverage and mentions in top news publications including Forbes India [3], Business Insider India [4], Business Standard [5]. Please check WP:BEFORE, before tagging an article with AfD.- Iamrajdeepdas (talk) 03:56, 2 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. There isn't a single thing about this article that I like. I'd bet dollars to doubtnuts (see what I did there?) that most of the content here comes from a PR campaign. But the company does seem to have attracted investment, and is active, and has received significant coverage in acceptable sources. I suspect the sources were prompted to write their articles by a PR campaign, but there is some evidence of reporting beyond pure journalistic repetition of PR releases, so I think we have just scraped into notability.

Keep How is this advertisement? The links added by another user on the talk-page indicates notability. Also the nominator tried to vote brigade by their sock. -- Eatcha 07:29, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
