Fails criteria laid down at WP:ORGCRITE. Lacks in-depth coverage, WP:CORPDEPTH. Run-of-the-mill routine news by WP:NEWSORGINDIA are inadequate. Gan Favourite (talk) 14:08, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per no CORPDEPTH and General notability requirements. No significant sources. Old-AgedKid (talk) 12:12, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Cut and paste mass nomination (nine in under 10 minutes), no apparatent WP:BEFORE; NB WP:NEXIST, state of the article is not related to notability. A state-wide, almost 60 year old trade union with 10,000+ members is going to have off-line sourcing in Malayali. Notwithstanding that, simple searching in English shows RS to satisfy the GNG: The Hindu covers 58th State Conference (2024), Women KGOA members protest, The Hindu (2023) protests by the KGOA (2022).

If similar articles have the same issue, you can cut and paste the same rationale. No big deal. Comment on the merit of the argument, not the person. Avoid ad hominem attacks and maintain civility. Notability is not determined by age or member count. The sources you cited are mere "routine announcements" from WP:NEWSORGINDIA. I don't know about other countries, but in India, any organization can pay to have news about their events published. Clearly fails WP:CORPDEPTH, read it carefully and compare this subject's so called coverage. Gan Favourite (talk) 11:21, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A vague wave of WP:NEWSORGINDIA cannot substitute for specific soruce analysis or evidence of paid editing related to the subject. The sources are not routine announcements and this is misapplication of routine. A news report about a protest would not indicate that a protest is per se notable, but would contribute towards the notability of the organisation which led the protest.
