Talk:Jihan Wu

1 event
Describing Jihan Wu as famous for one event (inventing Bitmain) is like describing Mark Zuckerberg as famous for one event (inventing Facebook). Obviously Bitmain isn't as big a deal as Facebook, but it's one of the most important companies in the Bitcoin world. On top of that, Jihan Wu has become a widely-discussed figure in the Bitcoin world for his strong support for Bitcoin Cash, which doesn't have anything to do with Bitmain per se.

 * If you have any hopes of creating an article and keeping it, read WP:GNG, and probably WP:PRIMARY, and ideally links from those pages. Then make sure your article describes why the person is notable, and prove that notability with reliable references.  The references are needed both to show that the person is notable and to verify the things you write about the person.  Just writing a paragraph of "stuff you know" without links to verifiable sources is not acceptable, and particular when it is about a living person it will just get kicked back.  Writing a paragraph without describing what makes the person notable can just be speedily deleted; in this case it has been reverted to a redirect but don't push your luck or it may suddenly disappear entirely.

 * Just trying to help man. I thought the whole point of Wikipedia was that people could build up an article over time. I've added two links. There are literally hundreds of others about him. He's not an obscure guy. Binarybits (talk) 01:15, 17 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I do think Jihan Wu is notable enough now to have an article by himself, but yeah, somebody needs to write it. Ethanbas (talk) 18:10, 17 May 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm always skeptical with Bitcoin people but a quick search indicated notability pretty quickly to me. Would definitely hope someone invests sometime incorporating the RS that are out there. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:54, 17 May 2018 (UTC)

Famous for one event is sufficient for CEOs under wikipedia rules. Multiple events are not required. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 04:44, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
