Ubiq

Promotional article created by SPA, sourced mainly to primary unreliable sources, with no indication of notability. Fails WP:CORP and WP:GNG. Prince of Thieves (talk) 16:00, 17 March 2018 (UTC) — Striking per WP: SOCKSTRIKE. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:17, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete not notable, none of the refs are independent. Smallbones( smalltalk ) 17:31, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for reviewing the page. As mentioned on Talk:Ubiq, I am working on sourcing reliable third-party sources to add to this page and to conform to WP:NPOV, to address possible issues with the sources. I would appreciate direct responses as to which refs are most problematic, as opposed to blanket statements about which sources are most problematic with WP:IS. In addition, as cryptocurrency is an emerging field, WP:GNG criteria may not be completely in concordance with degree of mainstream coverage - and would appreciate further guidance on which specific cryptocurrencies you have in mind that satify or fail WP:GNG criteria. Thanks, awaiting further response. Jimhsu774792 (talk) 20:41, 17 March 2018 (UTC)


 * , this is not a review, this is a debate to delete the article, if you feel this article could be improved at a later date, take a copy of the source code now for your future reference. All the sources are a problem. As to the matter of which cryptocurrencies are notable, please note my list, all the articles marked with crosses will be nominated in due course, the ones with ticks may well be nominated by other people with higher standards than me. I will examine the sources in detail below. Prince of Thieves (talk) 21:14, 17 March 2018 (UTC) — Striking per WP: SOCKSTRIKE. --Malcolmxl5 (talk) 01:17, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
