November 2021[edit]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Shitcoin, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Kleuske (talk) 13:41, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Shitcoin. -- LuK3 (Talk) 14:14, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (November 22)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by IVORK was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Per Wikipedia:Notability_(cryptocurrencies), cryptocurrencies need to have sourcing from more than just crypto-specific new agencies. The sources listed do not currently show this. Additionally, Google docs is not a valid source as anyone can add and reference anything.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Brian Weissmann/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to User:Brian Weissmann/sandbox, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Cryptocurrency subject to community sanctions[edit]

You should probably take a look at Wikipedia:General sanctions/Blockchain and cryptocurrencies. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 16:19, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ScottishFinnishRadish, thanks for making me aware, I'm new to wiki editing and am unsure of what I'm doing wrong as of right now, sorry for any inconveniences I may have done towards Wikipedia. I was asked to correct the google docs source as this was not a valid source. I did this and felt like my sources were proof. Can you elaborate on what I'm doing incorrectly? Thank you for your time, I'd like to get this wiki up and running if possible. Brian Weissman (talk) 23:03, 14 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you try creating the article through WP:AFC again. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 00:11, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bkissin, I've contacted your editor help team to try and figure out what I have been doing wrong with the draft. They provided me with very helpful tips and told me what was garbage and that I should revise the draft as I'm an investor on the project. I have tried revising now to the best of my ability and would like for you to look over the page again if you have the time. I've been looking around for reliable and neutral sources for the token but was ultimately unable to find some although I feel most of the page is simply stating facts on the project. If this means the wiki page will not be accepted, I would ask you to remove the page. Thank you very much for your time, hope you have a pleasant Christmas and happy New Years.

There needs to be significant coverage in independent secondary sources, which there is not. Until such coverage exists the article will not be approved. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 20:05, 15 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
