@Miraclepine: Please lists the third-party coverage you found so we can analyze it.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 10:57, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Versace1608: I didn't say I found it. Why else didn't I say keep? Just look in the sources of the article. ミラP 16:23, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Miraclepine: The meager citations therein are not viable third-party sources that justify keeping the article. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 18:32, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Beemer69: Analyze the sources one-by-one and explain why they don't count. ミラP 18:33, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Miraclepine: You've never even edited the article, so it's curious as to why you're so driven on wanting to keep it. Its creator has several other articles up for AfD also due to lack of notability. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 19:22, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Beemer69: Of course, I kept quiet for so long because all the articles I created that was tag for deletion are notable, I just felt the editor that tagged it doesn't really understand notability guidelines. (Techwritar (talk) 13:41, 4 January 2020 (UTC))[reply]
@Miraclepine: The sources in the article are self-published sources and are not third party coverage.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 16:29, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Versace1608: Why are they self-published? (Techwritar (talk) 16:47, 4 January 2020 (UTC))[reply]
  • Keep: Firstly, third party sources (independent source) are sources that have no vested interest in a given Wikipedia topic and therefore is commonly expected to cover the topic from a disinterested perspective. All the sources there are third-party sources that have editorial independence. Secondly, he passes WP:ENT because he has a large fan base, one million subscribers and about 2.2 million views on one of his videos on YouTube. (Techwritar (talk) 16:10, 4 January 2020 (UTC))[reply]
@Techwritar: Which of the sources cited in the article have editorial independence? Can you show us where you see members of their editorial team? Only the second source has an "About Us" page, and there's no indication that said source is a reputable news outlet.  Versace1608  Wanna Talk? 16:29, 4 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Techwritar is the creator of this and several other articles currently up for deletion due to lack of notability and bad sourcing, so he is going to blindly defend them no matter what and brook no opposing views whatsoever. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 05:36, 5 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
