Terrahash

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A terahash is a billion hashes. This fact doesn't seem worth its own article which explains hashes from scratch (and also mentions kilo, mega, giga and petahashes without explaining why terahashes are uniquely significant), but a redirect to cryptographic hash function was reverted. The correct spelling of terahash already redirects. McGeddon (talk) 11:47, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. There's really nothing here that's salvageable, and that's not even addressing the fact that the page title's spelled wrong to begin with. Cryptographic hash function has the actual content on this topic. Squeamish Ossifrage (talk) 15:03, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete – There are parts that are related to other articles, like hashing and BitCoin. But it's all unsourced and reads like an essay. WP:OR – Margin1522 (talk) 18:40, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Comment Although this delete seems completely appropriate, the article does address an area of Cryptocurrencies not addressed by Wikipedia at this time. Maybe add a sentence or two to [] mentioning that the efficiency of mining devices is determined by the number of hashes per second? Piboy51 (talk) 15:10, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. No references support notability. Fails WP:GNG.  B E C K Y S A Y L E S  00:37, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
