Petro gold

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable article about a new cryptocurrency that may never even happen. This is way too soon, fails WP:NOTNEWS, WP:GNG and it's clearly part of Petro (cryptocurrency). Prince of Thieves (talk) 13:05, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete or merge with the main article per the reasons above.--Jamez42 (talk) 16:04, 15 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete -- borderline A7 / G11; promo 'cruft on a nn cryptocurrency. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:22, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge to Petro (cryptocurrency); I'm not sure that's notable either, but for now any of Maduro's public pronouncements in this area can be covered there. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 00:27, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Petro (cryptocurrency) has some significant mainstream attention due to being the only crypto-currency ever issued by a government, and the fact they did that to illegally evade economic sanctions imposed by the USA. I think that article is pretty safe. Prince of Thieves (talk) 00:45, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete way too soon, crystal ball type material, nothing solid yet. Smallbones( smalltalk ) 18:01, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Merge with Petro. This should just go under a section of that article, and this should just be a redirect to that section. I don't see why this needs to be an article per Smallbones's Crystal Ball reasonings. I do think it does belong somewhere with appropriate context, and the announcement being included in the Petro article services that.&#8213; Matthew J. Long -Talk-☖  00:57, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge with Petro. Does not meet GNG. (As an aside, George C. Parker would be proud of attempts to sell a "gold-backed" cryptocurrency regulated by the Venezuelan government.) Hrodvarsson (talk) 23:35, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
