The result was delete‎ __EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__. I participated in the DRV, but not speaking to procedure so I think I'm fine to close this with a crystal clear consensus. Seasoning also applied. Star  Mississippi  17:55, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Nouns DAO

The subject of this article is a Decentralized Autonomous Organization or DAO, a kind of business venture on a blockchain. The purpose of the venture is to sell non-fungible tokens or NFTS representing nouns (that is, words identifying things) as digital art. The business concept is described on this web site: https://www.noundation.wtf/intro/nouns-cc0#nouns-flywheel which can be seen to be a self-inflating financial bubble. Since this is a business venture, the applicable notability guideline is corporate notability, and this article does not satisfy it, because none of the coverage is independent and significant.

An article was deleted after a deletion discussion on 3 April 2022: Articles_for_deletion/Nouns_DAO. This article was then created, and deleted as previously deleted, but the G4 was overturned and this article was restored. So this is a different article about the same business venture that still does not satisfy corporate notability. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:43, 15 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete and salt at this point. No sources as shown above, and as explained last time. Oaktree b (talk) 23:08, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of RIS. Mccapra (talk) 21:31, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:CORP per the nominator's source table, which is actually rather generous. The businesswire.com source is a press release by another organisation which is collaborating with the subject, announcing that collaboration. It isn't independent of the subject.
