[edit]

Hey, TempusInfernus. I removed your Cryptocurrency Logo, because I didn't think it was appropriate for that article. Who is using that logo to represent Cryptocurrency? Who is proposing it be used? Do you have any reliable, third-party, published sources showing that this logo is being adopted as the logo for cryptocurrencies? Thanks, Stesmo (talk) 05:33, 12 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Cryptocurrency shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

  • TempusInfernus. Wikipedia works by consensus. If your edit is reverted by two or more different editors, that is an strong indication that you do not have consensus. At that point, you should go to the article talk page to seek support for your edit. - MrX 🖋 21:25, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Adding a "Crypto Sign" to represent cryptocurrency[edit]

crypto sign
This design proposed by artist Johnson Rice is a symmetrical generic "crypto sign" for representing cryptocurrencies in a generalized fashion. This design was specifically created to be released into the public domain. It has been used by several organizations including the controversial investment ratings company Weiss Ratings[1][2], the first nationally syndicated radio talk show to ever accept cryptocurrencies[3] "Free Talk Live", and a smaller regional organization promoting localized crypto usage, the "Monadnock Decentralized Currency Network[4]"

There is a stark lack of visual representation of crypto when referred to in a general or generic way. A logo design has been created to represent it which was released into the commons as CC0 and been used by the first podcast and major globally syndicated radio talk show named Free Talk Live, and the design was also used by the controversial financial ratings agency Weiss Ratings which recently launched their cryptocurrency ratings. (These have been very controversial amongst crypto investors)

I believe this should be added to the page.
