My reason for submitting 2023 Reddit API controversy as an article for deletion is that the subject is already covered in the Reddit article.

I don't think this event as a standalone article meets WP:GNG. 1keyhole (talk) 05:06, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Passes GNG.[1][2][3] Has been in the news for a couple weeks now, so is showing good signs of eventually passing WP:PERSISTENCE. The article Reddit has 10 paragraphs about this, and the subarticle 2023 Reddit API controversy has 18 paragraphs and is likely to grow, so a WP:SPINOUT here seems reasonable. –Novem Linguae (talk) 05:36, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Pass GNG. It's an WP:OKFORK. CastJared (talk) 09:05, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Agree with Novem Linguae above. Additionally, note that Reddit is a huge topic and other sub-topics have grown their own articles such as r/place, r/IAmA, etc. —siro χ o 09:13, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep: This event has stand-alone notability and passes GNG, with plenty of sources. Reddit's article is already over 200k bytes. There's no need to shove it back into that bloated article; if anything, Reddit needs to be split further. I would argue for a procedural close here, as this really should be a merge request instead of an AFD discussion based on the nom, as this article is over twice as long by bytes as Reddit#2023 API changes; I'm not a fan of the giant AFD banner on what could easily become a heavy-traffic article when deletion is barely supported by the nom (if this did not meet GNG, the !votes would be for merging, not deletion).
