Lead
What is with the silly lead for Bitcoin Cash? Why are there derogatory terms for Bitcoin Cash in the lead? The lead is supposed to be an introduction to Bitcoin Cash and summarize its most important features (WP:Lead), instead the lead mentions Bitcoin Cash is an altcoin of Bitcoin - another derogatory term and misleading as to the purpose of Bitcoin Cash. Does the valuable real-estate of the lead as "the first thing most people read upon arriving at an article" need to mention splits of BSV? This lead is the exact opposite of what a proper lead should be. We can do better than this surely. Nlovisa (talk) 23:49, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- We use WP:LEAD, and generally speaking the purpose of the lead is to summarize and describe what the subject is. It is not a space for promotion. Is it your opinion that the subject is not an altcoin? It is also useful to link to the BSV article, I dont understand why these wikilinks could be considered derogatory as you assert (assuming this is what you are asserting).
