Speedy deletion nomination of IOTA (technology)
editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on IOTA (technology), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Speedy deletion nomination of IOTA (cryptocurrency)
editHello Badmash,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged IOTA (cryptocurrency) for deletion, because it seems to be an article that was previously deleted by a consensus decision.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
Iota
editPlease read the message I left at Draft_talk:IOTA_(cryptocurrency)#Note. People associated with Iota are creating an extremely bad reputation for the foundation and the technology within the editing community of Wikipedia. I assume that you are active on the forums where these people are discussing things. Please link to it there.
We have "salted" most of the relevant titles in mainspace so there is no way that you people are going to be able to re-create anything without prior approval of an administrator here.
You all can try to understand and respect Wikipedia or keep beating your heads against the wall and sullying the reputation of the product, and getting indefinitely blocked one by one. Your community's choice, of course. Jytdog (talk) 18:56, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
