Not found in any reliable sources, does not meet notability standards. Agyle (talk) 00:31, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

delete per Agyle. Badger2424 (talk) 02:19, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
delete per Agyle. I've seen this article previously. Today, for the Articles written by a single editor Wiki Fixup Project, I approached the article again with the intent to propose it for deletion--Agyle beat me to the punch. --LukasMatt (talk) 03:09, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete per A1 - "Articles lacking sufficient context to identify the subject of the article". →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 03:29, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - It exists, and is covered in various webpages that discuss virtual currency, but not finding any coverage in reliable sources per Wikipedia's definition of reliable sources. NorthAmerica¹⁰⁰⁰ 03:03, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as neologism lacking sufficient references to establish notability. I note, though, that Agyle removed refs from the article which described the similar terms "Distributed Autonomous Corporations" and "Decentralized Autonomous Companies".Dialectric (talk) 07:56, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, I removed three sources, none of which mentioned the article's topic, and two of which seemed non-reliable. The Bitcoin Magazine article mentioned one of the similar-sounding terms in one sentence, without describing it. Prior to my edits, an earlier version of the Wikipedia article said Digital Autonomous Corporation are "sometimes also referred to as Decentralized Autonomous Corporations or Distributed Autonomous Corporations (DACs)", but since no reliable sources mention Digital Autonomous Corporations, that's not verifiable. The other terms seem to be of dubious notability themselves. Agyle (talk) 23:52, 16 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
