This article covers a combination of different topics, none of which warrant their own article. The article reads like a news report and isn't properly cited. There's a quotation about "reliable internet providers", but the source itself has nothing to do with internet providers or startups. HyperAccelerated (talk) 02:27, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Citations taken are from credible sources. This is an important issue, more so from the perspective of an Indian Wikipedia reader, and if there are any shortcomings, I feel the page could be improved, rather than censor the same. Fredericknoronha (talk) 03:01, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Noting that this is the article creator, so words like "important" are from an obviously slanted perspective. An AfD isn't censorship. You've had more than five and a half years to improve this article. HyperAccelerated (talk) 03:28, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with Fredrick. Lets improve the page with the citations and sources instead of deleting it. Jervisap (talk) 05:32, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete per nom. The newly added cites do not add into the cause of keep significantly. Also Times of India is not reliable per WP:TOI and the other added sources got a very promotional tone. From 'an Indian Wikipedia reader's view', the page is a collection of random topics and hence, do not warrant a standalone article currently. Another note to the closer: Jervisap sounds WP:MEAT for Fredrick after having a look at their contributions and userpage. The Herald (Benison) (talk) 05:42, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. I do not see evidence that this topic (if it is even well-defined enough to be called a "topic," rather than an amalgam of "startups" and "Goa") meets the GNG. Arbitrarily0 (talk) 02:27, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
