Comment: Subject has almost 200 uses as a reference source in enwiki. This stub article gives the context for those references. Clearly used as a secondary souce (X told Adgully, According to Adgully). And RSs quote Adgully's awards as notable. Would support merge to some suitable list page (Indian media/websites) Bogger (talk) 15:23, 21 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. My search didn't find any independent reliable sources that discuss the subject in any depth. It's true that some reliable sources occasionally cite Adgully or note in passing that someone received an award from them, but none of that is the sort of significant coverage that WP:NCORP, WP:NWEB, and the GNG require. Generally we don't merge/redirect to the sort of lists that Bogger is talking about (e.g. List of news websites in India) since they're written to include only notable subjects (see the first bullet point at WP:CSC), so in this case I think deletion is the best option.
