Presearch (search engine)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Poorly-sourced article about a non-notable blockchain related company. MER-C 19:38, 17 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete - I was able to find one somewhat independent source, which I've added to the article in order to give it a fair shake. That said there aren't the multiple, independent sources required to meet WP:GNG, and therefore this is a case of TOOSOON at best. ƒirefly  ( t · c · who? ) 20:27, 17 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep - seems like there is plenty of coverage in independent reliable sources if you search the news for 'Presearch blockchain'. —  Insertcleverphrasehere (or here)  23:52, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Pure advert for two-month old online business. No independent reliable sources discussing it directly save business listings and launching news. Also don't vaguely link to Google search result, give us the sources and let's see their content, who is behind the content and how reliable they are. –Ammarpad (talk) 06:22, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete does not meet WP:GNG because it does not get the coverage from multiple independent sources that would be required to pass GNG. Tillerh11 (talk) 14:09, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Comment - The lead, which reads "Presearch is a search engine based on blockchain technology, ...", makes no sense at all. Besides blockchain not being a technology, then blockchain is extremely ill suited (read: unusable!) for holding any index/indices of the appropriate kind (storage being half of the basis for any general web search engine like Google, Bing, Yandex, DuckDuckGo, etc.): Blockchain stores data in a tamper-proof way. Any such data structure is exactly opposite to the kind of storage which the dynamic content nature of the web calls for. (Given the glaring nonsense found as the very first words of the article, then I suggest the author to read WP:CIR. ... ) -- DexterPointy (talk) 22:12, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete: Setting aside scepticism about this combination of blockchain and make-money-by-searching, I am seeing nothing better than routine start-up publicity and announcements of appointments. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH as a company and WP:GNG as a product. AllyD (talk) 08:43, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
