This article is an assortment of non-independent social media content and info about the company's editorship. I have not been able to locate any significant coverage, much less in reliable sources. WP:GNG and WP:NCOMPANY are not met. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:01, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment - I started this page. It needs to be further developed. The subject is notable. It was discussed in other media such as Yahoo Finance. See here for example: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/braingrid-limited-announces-proposed-change-222400509.html?.tsrc=fin-srch The subject also is notable because authors who write for other crypto publications publish in Cryptonews such as Bruce Ng. Muckrack considers Cryptonews notable and relevant and includes it in its database. https://muckrack.com/bruce-ng/articles.Topjur01 (talk) 22:15, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I think you're misunderstanding WP:GNG: two or more pieces of coverage in reliable, independent sources are needed. The Yahoo Finance page is a press release, which are classed as non-independent at WP:PRSOURCE. I have also consulted the article you mentioned. (Here's a link if other editors want to view this). The subject is used as a source in footnote 12. I fail to see how this amounts to significant coverage. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:33, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep - I started this page. According to Google Scholar, it is cited in many scholarly publications:
 * How exactly does this address my concern that there is no significant coverage of this subject? Please stop posting walls of text and try to point out one place where this company is discussed by a reliable source at length. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:42, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I did not wish to do a wall of text. I now corrected it by adding breaks. When scholarly publications cite one source a lot, does that not make it significant? Topjur01 (talk) 22:49, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, WP:SIGCOV states that significant coverage addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. For example, this article constitutes significant coverage of Mike Pompeo. Also, you have !voted "keep" three times now. Each editor is only allowed one !vote at each AfD. Would you mind erasing two of your three keep !votes? Modussiccandi (talk) 22:58, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete - literally not an RS to be found - David Gerard (talk) 21:41, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
 * DELETE per above. Article is very poorly sourced with many non-RS items. A search does not find items that would support NCORP. Possibly (talk) 23:55, 23 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep - A book and at least ten scholarly articles in influential journals should be enough to pass the notability criterion. This article was co-edited by me, in the early phase it was edited under username "Danielsiter", which I changed into my current username after I realised it isn't a wise idea to use your personal identification in Wikipedia username. This happened due to the fact I'm a beginner and new in creating and editing Wikipedia articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WinSpeChurchill (talk • contribs) 12:12, 25 January 2021 (UTC) — WinSpeChurchill (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * Comment - None of those who vote "Delete" respond to the fact that many influential academic journals cite the Cryptonews news website. It seems that editors value noteworthy non-academic publications but not noteworthy academic journals. --Topjur01 (talk) 08:39, 27 January 2021 (UTC) (I was mistakenly not logged in and I signed it later) 146.212.27.229 (talk) 14:19, 26 January 2021 (UTC) — 146.212.27.229 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * I have answered this objection in my above comment which I encourage you to read. The issue revolves around significant coverage of which none has been conclusively produced. Modussiccandi (talk) 14:26, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "none has been conclusively produced"? Each of these ten highly influential academic publications cited Cryptonews as a source used in scholarly research or publication. If it is enough reliable for scholars - ten of them - it should be enough for Wikipedia. Topjur01 (talk) 17:30, 29 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete – Self-referential, promotional, lacking reliable WP:SIGCOV, etc, etc. The closest thing to actual RS coverage is the article falsely claiming that "according to Yahoo Finance" the subject is X, Y, and Z, when Yahoo just republished a press release from the parent company... which is laughably un-encyclopedic.  H iddenL emon  //  talk  08:06, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for pointing to the non-encyclopedic sentence and to the reference to Yahoo Finance. I removed these sentences. There is no more self-referencing apart from one sentence. This self-referencing in one sentence, however, is not a reason to remove the whole article, I hope. Thank you for letting me know. Topjur01 (talk) 13:51, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
