The reputable source Wall Street Journal references Classic only in passing, according to David Gerard (see talk page). Therefore, the subject does not fulfill the general notability guideline. The other sources are not reputable, as they are either primary or just plain obscure. Ysangkok (talk) 01:38, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or redirect to List of bitcoin forks - the mention is evidence it existed, but I'm pretty sure it was never significant - David Gerard (talk) 12:06, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Bitcoin Classic is only given a trivial mention in one reputable source. P,TO 19104 (talk) (contribs) 14:19, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Merge List of bitcoin forks because it is a fork of bitcoin. No reason to delete outright. Jtbobwaysf (talk) 19:38, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Jtbobwaysf: You must declare a reason. WP:NOREASON. --Ysangkok (talk) 19:31, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as failing WP:GNG. List of bitcoin forks already mentions that it existed. I think we can move the existing mention in passing citation to the mention in list of bitcoin forks; to be on that list there should be at least evidence that the fork once existed. --Guy Macon (talk) 17:18, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to List of Bitcoin forks and use anything that's reliably sourced to create a brief description to go with the currently naked entry in that list. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 19:32, 2 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Do not delete, it is better merge it to List of bitcoin forks. Nika2020 (talk) 22:30, 6 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
