Talk:Chainlink (blockchain oracle)

Proposed deletion

Ysangkok: I saw that you proposed deletion of this article because you stated that Forbes or Bloomberg will write about almost every cryptocurrency. I don't think this is true at all as there are thousands, or tens of thousands of cryptocurrencies. There are also cites from other reputable sources like Reuters and ZDNet. This article should pretty clearly pass WP:GNG but if other editors would like to put it up for discussion, please go ahead. Hocus00 (talk) 01:26, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

a dimension

Banned sockpuppet

@David Gerard: with regards to summary 20:53, 7 July 2021 and User talk:Autonomous agent 5#July 2021 20:51, 7 July 2021 this editor considered the fact of 3 dimensions to not include the dimension of the internet as a dimension in reality‎ i.e. the internet is an extra dimension if the word seems inapplicable, the fact of the question at the summary "what on earth" (which intimates unintentionally/indirectly the reasoning this editor is showing here) should describe how the word is applicable, in the opinion of this editor - with regards specifically to how cyberspace including the word "space" indicates a dimension that is expressable by the word "dimension" - this editor considers this response to allay the other editors consideration of gibberish as being here inapplicable, not the word (is asserted by this editor), with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 09:48, 8 July 2021 (UTC) This is unclear and unencyclopedic. We're here to inform the reader, not do whatever you're doing here - David Gerard (talk) 15:17, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

reversions

Banned sockpuppet

@David Gerard: why you think the Publications section is a problem? with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 23:14, 8 July 2021 (UTC) (to interested users, the question is a continuation of User talk:Autonomous agent 5#July 2021 (23:19, 8 July 2021 (UTC))) the question is with regards to the reversion of the version @ oldid=1032603790 with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 23:22, 8 July 2021 (UTC) User:David Gerard is giving what appears to be legitimate criticism in the summary and changing the article to show the criticism i.e. adding tags - but when this editor looks at the sources it wasn't possible to find how the sources aren't legitimate for the article - in addition this editor has made changes 21:57, 6 July 2021, 19:31, 6 July 2021 - the editor is not reasonably showing consideration for the material in the article - 18:45, 6 July 2021 will not allow the "Publications" section reverted the "Design" section @ 15:23, 6 July 2021‎ containing only green sources WP: RSP @ 15:23, 6 July 2021 with the summary "rv promotional, crypto, deprecated content - Wikipedia is not for advertising or promotion" cite 6 @ this version "Chainlink is currently headquartered within the Cayman Islands" is yet again reverted from the article @ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chainlink_(blockchain) - the user has reverted this sentence @ 15:18, 8 July 2021, 08:57, 7 July 2021, ‎ 15:23, 6 July 2021‎ could the user please explain how these choices are legitimate, with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 10:48, 9 July 2021 (UTC) Wikipedia:General_sanctions/Blockchain_and_cryptocurrencies#Remedies "All articles related to the blockchain and cryptocurrencies, broadly construed, are placed under WP:1RR (one revert per editor per article per 24 hour period). When in doubt, assume an edit is related and so is a revert. Clear vandalism of whatever origin may be reverted without restriction. Reverts of edits made by anonymous IP editors that are not vandalism are exempt from 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. Editors who otherwise violate this 1RR restriction may be blocked without warning by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offence." this editor (that is Autonomous agent 5) has provided an extended courtesy of allowing the reversions knowing the 1RR exists with the hope that the article could be improved for those interested users, including this user editor, but the reverting editor has not made any constructive efforts except for criticism, with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 10:56, 9 July 2021 (UTC) @JBchrch: I pinged because of the preceding concern (via here from here), this editor thinks the reverting editor has made an error of judgement and would like the pinged editor to review the reversions (where he/she/they will surely find the same problem) - I didn't see obvs. how to proceed with enforcing the 1RR sanction rule, or gaining any clarity on the situation from the reverting editor, is why the ping was sent - as a second option, providing a route for procedure (i.e. to provide some help on who else and where else in wikipedia to request assistance from) - would suffice, with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 11:12, 9 July 2021 (UTC) corr. 11:13, 9 July 2021 (UTC) @Autonomous agent 5: I assume you would like a second opinion about this edit? I think that David Gerard is correct here. Cheers. JBchrch talk 11:44, 9 July 2021 (UTC) actually I already indicated primarily the problematic aspects @ above here - as is shown @ the list with 3 members 11:24, 6 July 2021‎ - 14:33, 6 July 2021‎ reverted 12 edits - was provided @ Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring and declined there, but specifically the fact of 1RR being the rule, would motivate me to request your review of the 12 successive reverts - as the rule is strictly a sole revert with regards to 11:44, 9 July; "The oracle software produced by Chainlink was, at the beginning to 2021, the most utilized blockchain oracle service currently existing within the cyberspace dimension.[3][4] The organisation Chainlink itself is currently headquartered within the Cayman Islands[5]" was a part of that revert (the editor wrote "revert" not function reverted @ that edit) - I don't perceive any strong fault with that excerpt - not glaringly obvs. - if you could vindicate your position as to how this excerpt is not acceptable - I would surely be enlightened to a reality which is an improvement to my understanding that my current perception does not afford, thanks, with regards, (i): agent (5) (ii): autonomous - (version: prototype) (talk) 12:39, 9 July 2021 (UTC) It may or may not be registered in the Caymans, but that link does not show where its headquarters are - David Gerard (talk) 21:22, 9 July 2021 (UTC) if you open the link the source shows explicitly headquarters Cayman Islands, with regards, autonomous agent 5 - version: prototype (talk) 22:18, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
