Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Goa

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Goa. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Goa|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Goa. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to India.

Articles for deletion

Ambrosia Organic Farm

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Coverage on this company is limited to recycled press releases and advertorials (notice the article titles containing terms like "motivating story", "heartening story" and "intriguing story" as well as the lack of a byline). Falls well short of the sourcing standards expected at WP:NCORP. Yuvaank (talk) 13:18, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Food and drink, Companies, and India. Yuvaank (talk) 13:18, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: The article has more significant coverage demonstrating notability than actual content, hence, deletion is not warranted at this time. Additionally this is an old company established 32 years ago. Passes WP:NCORP. B-Factor 16:50, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: Found three more citations; one from The Hindu (a sponsored post), Zee News (Churn), and the third one is from Times of India (a trivial mention). The majority of its media coverage falls under WP:CHURN and WP:RSNOI. Charlie (talk) 03:48, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I concur with the above assessment. While a few sources appear to be promotional or possibly paid placements, publications such as Financial Express, Businessworld, and The New Indian Express are independent and reliable. Their in-depth and substantive coverage is sufficient to establish notability under the criteria for companies. Found coverage in local languages too such as this Jitendra indulkar (talk) 09:22, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is clearly PR-driven churnalism, which ran from mid-2022 to mid-2023. All the articles even the ones I shared, repeat the same narrative, using identical phrases like "David handed over Ambrosia to Janardan Khorate","10 lakhs to 40–50 crore", and "offers rice cakes, pickles, and flavoured peanut butter." Charlie (talk) 10:34, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jitendra indulkar:, Please see WP:CIR. Every link you present falls under WP:NEWSORGINDIA and is paid-for churnalism that is only published to promote the subject.--CNMall41 (talk) 16:38, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - The applicable guideline for this page since it is a company would be WP:ORGCRIT. None of the sources fall under that as they are all churnalism, NEWSORGINDIA, or otherwise unreliable. --CNMall41 (talk) 16:38, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
