Borderline speedyable as promotional; zero reliable source. The Entrepeneur article is tagged as an opinion piece by a "contributor." OhNo itsJamie Talk 15:42, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Not promotional. Not opinion. "Reliable source" = Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/rodberger/2022/11/03/shaping-education-for-young-entrepreneurs-on-a-case-by-case-basis/?sh=2bdb5835d3cc Bryzie.b (talk) 15:56, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Noting the Forbes source is an WP:INTERVIEW. -Kj cheetham (talk) 16:08, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Also see WP:FORBESCON, which explicitly disqualifies Forbes "contributor" articles. OhNo itsJamie Talk 16:10, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * If you see WP:FORBES Wikipedia states it as a reliable source Panthermail (talk) 17:13, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * WP:FORBES is only for articles written by their staff, WP:FORBESCON applies here. -Kj cheetham (talk) 17:20, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Cryptocurrency and Australia.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 17:03, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I think this article should be tagged for cleanup as Bryan Legend is a pretty significant figure in the crypto space and deserves the Wikipedia page. Im with @Panthermail on this one. Yeah it does seem a bit biased but I think the POV can be corrected easily. Also it doesn't classify for speedy deletion as the criteria is not exactly matched.@Kj cheetham 2405:201:200F:89FA:17A:B992:24CA:6436 (talk) 18:24, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * For the record, that was clearly not left by me. -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:45, 29 January 2023 (UTC)


 *  Comment  well, he's covered in news.com.au, but he lost all his money . The rest of the sources are useless, the Forbes is a contributor piece, so not RS. Might have a shot if we can find a few more sources. Oaktree b (talk) 21:17, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete One reliable source, nothing found for his racing career either. Oaktree b (talk) 21:21, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
 * He didnt race he sponsored a racing team 2405:201:200F:CD11:7D27:762D:1FA9:5B71 (talk) 07:20, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * That's not notable then either. Oaktree b (talk) 15:09, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Even with the minimal reliable sources that are included, I still can't find anything that makes the subject notable enough for an article here. NJZombie (talk) 02:27, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. I attempted to do something about the blatant promo by making it a stub, but even then I don't think it's salvageable. Liliana UwU  (talk / contributions) 04:08, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Save. Pretty Important person in the DeFi space, though some better sources are required! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:201:200F:CD11:7D27:762D:1FA9:5B71 (talk) 07:24, 30 January 2023 (UTC)  — 2405:201:200F:CD11:7D27:762D:1FA9:5B71 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * Comment this !vote is the only edit from an obvious WP:SPA Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:38, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * what is Defi exactly? We need sourcing to prove why he's "important" in this space. Oaktree b (talk) 15:11, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * DeFi is Decentralized finance. -Kj cheetham (talk) 15:47, 30 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a publisher of vanity spam. duffbeerforme (talk) 07:59, 30 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Delete i would have speedied this if not listed here, already speedied a sandboed draft Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:38, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete There's a little bit of independant coverage, but most of it is WP:PROMO. WP:TNT might be needed if a stub was to be kept. -Kj cheetham (talk) 09:47, 30 January 2023 (UTC)

 * tagged as spam by my spam filter, so I'm going to say it's not a RS. Oaktree b (talk) 15:12, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete: Promotional article. Particularly the section on hobbies. - GA Melbourne (talk) 10:25, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Strong delete looks like a promotional puff piece of unremarkable achievements. LibStar (talk) 10:45, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Note: The page creator has requested the deletion of the page. I've declined because of the large number of other edits, but FYI. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 09:24, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * That's actually the second time they've requested deletion, including page blanking CiphriusKane (talk) 13:06, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Making me think there might be COI there too. -Kj cheetham (talk) 13:45, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete nothing more than a promotional/vanity article and there's not really much of a claim to notability either. Best, GPL93 (talk) 20:37, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete per Oaktree, LibStar, Jo-Jo Eumerus. Cabrils (talk) 22:44, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Nothing new to add to the other delete votes above. Falls well short of meeting WP:GNG. Edwardx (talk) 10:03, 3 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete - fails WP:GNG, as nom was thinking, probably should have been speedied. Onel 5969  TT me 14:49, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
