Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NewPipe (2nd nomination)

The result was delete. Having been relisted twice, I am skeptical that a third relist would have a meaningful difference. The keep that found that notability should be derived from a video by a youtuber was given no weight because it was not grounded in policy. GHITS is considered to be a poor argument by the community, so I did not find it persuasive. Guerillero Parlez Moi 14:49, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Product fails WP:NPRODUCT. Not only are the sources in the article primary or not reliable, but also there are no other sources that are significant coverage in independent reliable secondary sources that could be found by searching on Google. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 14:55, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Products and Software. GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 14:57, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
- Strong Keep. NewPipe was featured on a big German newspaper called Bild. I don't know if the "Google test" is still a thing, but if it is, NewPipe is widely talked about on technology blogs and forums. Maybe more reliable sources could be found. –

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, North America1000 14:33, 15 October 2022 (UTC)- Newpipe is a relatively well known alternative for watching YouTube videos. One single person who hasn't heard of the tool or doesn't understand the reason for the need, seems seems like a poor reason to deem the work of 100s of devs over 7 years as, "Not Notable". Especially knowing some of the very arcane items (some with very little data) that WP lists.
- How did I see this "deletion" page? Newpipe has been referenced multiple times over multiple years at ghacks.net (Most recently - https://www.ghacks.net/2022/10/21/google-is-increasing-the-price-of-youtube-premium-family-significantly/) and after all of the posts about it over the years, I wanted to learn more. 70.112.82.122 (talk) 06:22, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Press releases/PR sources aplenty, links to their own website. Bild is about the only thing covering them for an RS. Oaktree b (talk) 20:33, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
- Bild is the German analogue to the Daily Mail, seeing anything there makes me assume the opposite is true. Stifle (talk) 10:21, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
- Keep Louis Rossmann devoted a video to them.[1]--Froglich (talk) 06:06, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Current references seem to be mostly not independent, and I can't really find many new independent and reliable ones. echidnaLives - talk - edits 06:30, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
