Redirecting Paystack
editPlease stop redirecting Nigerian fintech history. This is not about an acquisition. Paystack was acquired by Stripe and has a wholesome stand-alone background that is entirely different from Stripe. Would you redirect YouTube to Google or WhatsApp to Facebook because it has been acquired?
Kindly resolve to a community discretion before redirecting the article.
The first 2 paragraphs are how sincerely I expressed myself before I knew you had done the reversion. :) Sincerely Onel. I respect your discretion and contributions to the community. But sincerely, there is a subconscious bias here. Danidamiobi (talk) 10:26, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
- Danidamiobi, I wasn't pinged to this discussion, so I left a message on your talk page. Onel5969 TT me 13:16, 22 June 2021 (UTC)
Is a 2nd delete nomination warranted?
editPaystack has now faced two deletion nominations, first in October 2020 and now again in March 2025. Given the ongoing discussion, recent improvements, and broad coverage from reliable sources (WP:RS) such as BBC, CNN, Reuters, Irish Independent, Bloomberg, TechCrunch ..., it is worth considering how WP:NCORP and WP:GNG are being applied.
I noticed that the Brubank article, which is also a fintech, has never been nominated for deletion despite being stub-like. With a second deletion nomination and the discussion by editors Danidamiobi and Onel5969 above, could systemic bias (WP:BIAS) be influencing how notability is assessed for African companies?

- This is a very good point to make, thank you for asking this question. I think it certainly could be. I don't have data to say definitively yes/no, but I think it's worth digging into further even though the result was KEEP. Iknowyoureadog (talk) 21:16, 11 April 2025 (UTC)
