Cryptocurrency crap. Diptanshu &#128172; 02:54, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

Reopening. --Calton | Talk 14:25, 14 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete. A one-line listing of a cryptocurrency, arguably a speedy deletion. Zero sign that anyone has paid any attention whatsoever. --Calton | Talk 14:25, 14 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete most crypto-currencies aren't notable, and this one doesn't appear to be notable. The references are trivial and there's no claim of importance. power~enwiki ( π,  ν ) 02:22, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep First of all "Cryptocurrency crap" as stated by the nominator, is not a valid reason for deleting an article, as noted a few days ago when this discussion was closed. Second, this article should be kept because it meets the general notability guideline. It has significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. The article is shorter than those for other cryptocurrencies, but I'm unaware of any deadline by when this must be completed. Chrisclear (talk) 17:56, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
 * First of all "Cryptocurrency crap" as stated by the nominator, is not a valid reason for deleting an article Not the only reason now, is it? So, irrelevant.
 *  Second, this article should be kept because it meets the general notability guideline That's not an argument, that's a claim -- a so-far-empty claim, at that. --Calton | Talk 17:38, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
 * A valid reason to delete an article should be given by the editor proposing its deletion. It shouldn't be left to other editors to guess their reasoning. Jonpatterns (talk) 13:06, 23 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge to NEO (cryptocurrency). First reference is a mention. Second is a bit more detailed, but doesn't seem to be significant coverage. There is also and one on a blacklisted site, but I'm not convinced that it's sufficient. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:02, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep This is a cryptocurrency that, as stated above, has been covered significantly in reliable sources separate from the cryptocurrency itself. In addition, while the article is in need of work, There is no deadline, so therefore, it should stay. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SuperChris (talk • contribs) 12:42, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
 * "Because I said so" is not a Wikipedia sourcing standard, ACTUAL SOURCES are the sourcing standard. Perhaps you could have added one or two instead of just adding a couple of categories to the one-line stub. --Calton | Talk 22:40, 17 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete - the 2 cited sources were "crystal ball" sources when they appeared. Now that the cryptocurrency has supposedly appeared - well it would likely require more than a one line article if it was a notable appearance.  "Cryptocurrency crap" seems quite apt.

 * Delete. WP:A7 (No indication of importance) applies.  The sources may establish WP:V, but they don't establish WP:N.  -- RoySmith (talk) 12:46, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - 'Cryptocurrency crap' is not on argument to delete an article. Jonpatterns (talk) 13:01, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
