All video gaming leagues with no substantial independant coverage (
WP:GNG). All articles are created by the same author that I asked to provide sources, but this request seems to have been ignored.

@
Vaypertrail, split these? You should only bundle when it's unquestionable that they will be considered as a whole. These leagues/series are not being considered as a whole. –

Keep. The
Garena Premier League has received substantial independent coverage in Southeast Asia. A very quick news search reveals the following dedicated articles:
[1],
[2],
[3],
[4]. At least some of these articles seem to be written by (presumably reliable) major media outlets. Additionally, those websites seem to be hosting many articles on the subject of the article -- they don't seem to be one-off "human interest" articles on a niche topic. I will add the English source to the article. I believe the other two nominated articles are entirely separate tournaments run by separate organizations in separate countries and shouldn't be included with the GPL.

Then most of the articles should be removed already due to this measurement. As I said, as a content of the League of Legends World Championship, it has the notability already.

'Lao_Động' is one of the largest newspapers in Vietnam, and vietnamnet.vn is a highly prominent Vietnamese website. Both websites rank in the top 5000 globally. Given their level of dedicated, continual coverage of the events, I think it would qualify the article under GNG.

Strong keep. It doesn't make sense of AfD just due to no source is given. Those three articles are highly notable as a content of the League of Legends professional competition. The article has to be expanded, indeed, source must be given too.
