Does not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines and lacks proper sourcing. Could be a section on parent company's page but does not warrants its own page OhNoKaren (talk) 01:28, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

- Keep. Award winning publication. Please explain this nomination. pburka (talk) 03:50, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Redirect to Rappler couldn't find any sources that are WP:SECONDARYSOURCE to the subject. The keep vote above is not policy related. Warm Regards, Miminity (Talk?) (me contribs) 09:13, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
Redirect to Rappler. Rappler § Newsbreak also exists, so I guess a merge may be suitable if there are contents from this article that can be merged. But for now, I'm leaning to a redirect.Keep per WP:WEBCRIT and GRuban's rationale. AstrooKai (Talk) 09:34, 16 January 2025 (UTC)- Keep, per pburka, award winning publication. The reference links are poorly done, which makes it not obvious that third party newspapers also write about the magazine, but they do, I'll fix some; however the awards would make it a keep anyway. User:Miminity is incorrect, awards absolutely do make a news site notable, that's called WP:WEBCRIT. --GRuban (talk) 15:09, 16 January 2025 (UTC)

- Bonner, Raymond (25 July 2005). "Editors Tackle Taboos With Girlish Glee". The New York Times. Archived from the original on 2015-05-29. Retrieved 16 January 2025. Long, indepth article from the foremost newspaper in the US.
- Cruz, Carmela (October 12, 2009). "Muckraking in Manila". Foreign Policy. Retrieved 16 January 2025. Not completely devoted to the magazine, but more than a casual mention. Among the lines: "For the next several years, Newsbreak gained a reputation for its dogged investigative reporting and lively attacks on the malfeasance of the Philippines’ holy trinity: politics, the military, and the Catholic Church."
- Goodno, James B. (November 2, 2009). "Staying Alive in Mindanao". Foreign Policy. Archived from the original on 2021-01-24. Retrieved 16 January 2025. About a specific issue of the magazine.
- Secondary sources, gentle editors. --GRuban (talk) 15:42, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- GRuban, thanks. I closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Let Books Be Books per SNOW, but I can't really do that here given the "redirect" votes. Drmies (talk) 16:27, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- The NYTimes piece is about the magazine's editors, I could see a merge to Marites D. Vitug. IgelRM (talk) 22:59, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Er, no. It's not about the editors' family lives, or their favorite sports teams, or their taste in fashion, or where they went to school, or where else they worked, or anything else that could be described as being about them in any way other than their work making this magazine. It's about this magazine. This magazine isn't an animal or a mountain or an ocean. It doesn't exist apart from the people who make it. It does not write itself. --GRuban (talk) 02:09, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep Ultimately seems fine, notability seems at the very least established. EggRoll97 (talk) 16:40, 16 January 2025 (UTC)
- Keep. The article could be improved but I agree the the subject is notable. Newsbreak's investigative reports have been quoted by various publications and a libel case against it's staff got significant coverage. -
