There are companies that generate television segments and sell them to broadcasters – this is broadcast syndication. This also happens in printed media and across websites. A syndication company may offer the same story in multiple formats, such as a long and short news article, or the same story with an alternate lead, or a video and a written article. Whatever the length or format, they usually contain the same claims and are written or edited by the same person or team.
Syndicated news pieces may be independent of the subject matter, but they are not independent of one another. When considering notability or due weight within an article, all of the related articles by the same publishing syndicate, no matter how widely they were sold, are treated as the same single source.WP:SYNDICATED the whole article is cited from multiple sources and all the sources are syndicated from The Wire's investigative journalism article written by Wire's editors Ayushman Kaul and Devesh Kumar. there are no seperate, independent research by any other source on tek fogDdd421 (talk) 07:46, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Speedy Keep Per WP:SKCRIT #3. I created the article. I am suggesting a speedy keep as the rambling nomination is erroneous and has no merit. The software topic has generated considerable coverage in international media and Indian political landscape to merit an article on Wikipedia by passing WP:GNG and WP:NEVENT. it sparked an Investigation by Parliamentary Standing Committee on Home Affairs There are multiple primary and secondary sources in the article, including international publishers like Deutsche Welle [1] Quartz (publisher) [2] and Le Monde [3]. Venkat TL (talk) 08:00, 13 April 2022 (UTC) Changed to speedy keep. Venkat TL (talk) 13:20, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep Clearly notable topic with articles in many Indian reliable sources. Each source has editors who, even when getting articles from syndicates such as Press Trust of India (PTI), still exercise editorial judgment. As such they consider how likely the content is to be true, etc. -- Toddy1 (talk) 09:19, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Keep Per WP:SKCRIT #3. The nom's claim is demonstrably false. The sources presented above by Venkat TL, such as Le Monde are clearly not syndicated content. I also note this article was snow kept in January. This is part of an ongoing effort to remove this controversy about Modi's government from Wikipedia.

- I would also note that the nom, Ddd421 only joined Wikipedia on 6 April and since then has attempted to purge two articles (both with spurious rationale) about controversies relating to Modi's party (their first attempt being less than 10 minutes after their first edit).
