I removed a speedy deletion tag from this bio because a clear claim of notability had been made and backed up by a reliable source. However, the Wired article is the only source, and it makes sweeping claims amid a great deal of surmise and conjecture, perhaps too much to meet WP:BLP requirements for such a dramatic assertion. I've cut the article back to the bare bones of Wired's assertion. Acroterion (talk) 04:29, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I would just wait this out and see if it turns into anything bigger. A number of reputable sources have picked up on it. This may just be a sentence on Satoshi Nakamoto, or it could require its own article. -Newyorkadam (talk) 04:32, 9 December 2015 (UTC)Newyorkadam[reply]

The independent Gizmodo ref helps considerably: my main concern rested on the single source. As you say, let's see how this plays out. I would expect more news shortly if both of those publications were pursuing the story independently. Acroterion (talk) 04:36, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: There's now a third, independent source from The Guardian, which I added to the article. It discusses the Bitcoin claims as well as a bunch of new info, most notably that Wright's home was raided today by Australian federal police. 2601:643:8500:8C5C:28BF:FB8A:B048:C0E2 (talk) 05:20, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Person currently part of an unfolding news story. Sukhoi 24 (talk) 10:22, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now. Can always be deleted later if it turns out to be untrue. Thue (talk) 10:39, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Keep for now - it's a developing story, so give it a day or two to accumulate sources. Might blow over and stay WP:1E, but there seems to be some information beyond Bitcoin already. --Stephan Schulz (talk) 13:08, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
