Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hello Internet (2nd nomination)
Per Nom. Fails  . The podcast did reach #1 for three days on iTunes but not to any iTunes "Best New Podcasts of 2014" list that I could find. A source https://www.techlicious.com/blog/apple-itunes-app-store-best-games-and-apps-of-2014/ "Best Podcasts of 2014" states, "Predictably, Serial has won Apple’s award for Best New Podcast of 2014". I could not find the podcast on the Podcast Awards#Categories and winners|Wikipedia list (for source) either. The source provided on the article https://archive.fo/20170822180251/http://www.bgr.in/news/apple-reveals-the-top-apps-games-music-and-movies-on-its-indian-store-in-2014/ "favorite podcasts" ("yearly iTunes Store awards for 2014"; Podcasts): "The best emerging new podcasts were The Art of Thinking SMART Podcast, Hello Spoken English, Hello Internet, Wild Oceans, 500 Startups Podcast, NPR: TED Radio Hour Podcast." The "Collegian article" provides one paragraph and a sentence to the subject (out of a list of 5 product reviews) leaving only the ''The Polytechnic'' article to actually establish otability|notability. The fact that the names of living people are mentioned means this is subjected to the sourcing criteria of  and not generally |I like it or . Student media, "list of" sources with minimum coverage, Twitter, and Reddit do not advance notability. Primary sources|Primary sources also do not establish notability. The sources that mention "Freebooting" is not about "the subject". The above mention of the number of Twitter followers is not an indication of notability. Wikipedia has an average of 18 billion views a day and 27 million registered users (followers), far above 8k or 2.7 million, yet it is not considered a reliable source. Statements like ''"notable enough for an article, albeit not by a huge margin"'' seems to hint at |barely notable which is a half way mark between notable and non-notable. As soon as I find that acceptable criteria (almost notable) on Wikipedia I might change my !vote
