I'm no sure about this but I think there already are some websites that keep a history of all bitcoin casinos and they have it sorted based on currencies so it's pretty easy to find out those who accept bitcoin deposits. I don't know if a Wikipedia page is also required for that, maybe only for the purpose of promotion because mnay people know and visit that page.
I don’t think  that already exist and I doubt if Wikipedia would accept anything of such . I feel Wikipedia should be left alone for better activities that would grow individuals that visit the site not gambling. Gamblers that have interest in whoever kind of games should do their research and know the right places to find the best casino site.

If it was Bitcoin alone, I would personally find any means to air it out and let the world and as many that needs to know, know about it but now that gambling is involved, I do not have interest because I have lost too much money on gambling and I will not like younger generation who are on Wikipedia for better things find out about the game.
Wikipedia should be left alone for batter activities don’t get that pls. Are you insinuating that gambling is not one of those good activities, and if you are sure of publishing Bitcoin then you should support anything that connects or has a relationship with it. WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT HERE IS LETTING MORE PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT  gambling sites that accepts Bitcoin through the use of Wikipedia.

I feel it would be a great idea in promoting cryptocurrency and as well gambling, so many people believe so much in cryptocurrency and are yet to know about gambling sites accepting crypto, it will be a way to let them know this.
If you are so determined to let crypto gambling well known, I advise you try and create good topics and share on very popular blogs, Facebook pages and other social media applications but I feel it shouldn’t be on Wikipedia. What business does Wikipedia have to do with gambling? Wikipedia is a place for serious minded people not seriousness gambling that is good at destroying the lives of individuals, making people go broke daily.

I  don’t even think it is right at all to put gambling on a Wikipedia site, a place where our younger generations are exposed to learning, and it would corrupt children that are supposed to be learning  educational things, so I truly stand against having gambling sites on Wikipedia site.

Not sure gambling sites are willing to be involved in the wikipedia considering gambling is not much legal in the world, in fact many countries prohibit gambling which means if gambling sites are involved in Wikipedia, then maybe the site will be highlighted to be blocked. Gambling sites have increased over time and gained the trust of their customers and it has made many gambling sites more famous and trusted in this industry. So, without putting it on wikipedia I believe gambling sites can increase by the many of gamblers in the world.

You guys are ridiculous. Do you really think that in case Wikipedia publishes a list of casinos, then the Wiki website will be blocked in those countries where gambling is illegal? Very difficult to believe that you are a legendary member here. Is this your real account, or did you purchased an account for a few bucks?

I am residing in a country where gambling is illegal (with very rare exceptions). But even then, I can directly open gambling sites on my browser (including those which accept payments in Bitcoin) without a web proxy or VPN, and create accounts in these sites.
Wikipedia blocked in countries where gambling is prohibited?Huh That sounds really hilarious but then there is no need for names calling.  That’s probably he’s  opinion but I suggest we do proper research and get better understanding before dropping comments here because some comments can really be awkward.

Like the upper comment, even in countries where gambling is declared illegal, there are still residing gambler, how much more blocking a whole wiki just for prompting gambling, it is absolutely impossible. But Wikipedia is not even a good place to drop gambling information and I do not support that at all. There are other alternative sites.

Wikipedia is not place for things like that. They don’t do advert, it’s a Knowledge book for learning things that are very important and not a place for listing out casinos. If you want a list of casinos, then there are already a lot of websites that has list of casinos websites that accepts bitcoin and they are all been reviewed and the features they offer being listed out. It’s up to you to make your choice on which one you like based on the review that us written about them. A search on Google will bring list of casinos that accepts bitcoin,  there Fortune Jack,  7Bit Casino and the rest of them.
Thank you bro, They want to corrupt Wikipedia with gambling bullshit.  Wikipedia would not even accept such crab. Gamblers keep your gambling activities to yourself  and find better places to safe your information’s, you can try out social media sites or blog but Wikipedia should be counted out, that’s  a place for serious minded people.

What does it even take to do a little research on Google, like you just did and brought out the names of sites that accept crypto, it’s as easy as ABC, rather than considering Wikipedia knowing fully well that it does not even accept adverts and its more or less for learning purpose.

Wikipedia is the website and this kinda good for an information source, maybe that is not advisable that to have promoted gambling and it will publish the gambling industry regarding gambling bounty. Or maybe there are instances that may be the owner didn't like the gambling industry to involve.
I don't think Wikipedia is a reliable source because first of all the information there could be edited by anyone which means someone who has evil deeds could change it easily. They could change the list of reputed ones into a fraud one but if you are going to find an authentic one then you go for this forum, you can spot a legit crypto casino in this forum like Vegascasino which has a feature that you can even play live so you can guarantee that there's no anomaly occurs.
It's true that Wikipedia is not a reliable source to make a page of casinos that accept bitcoin because anyone could really edit your posts and make bad things about it like changing the sites that will result fraud and scams. I highly suggest the best thing to promote a gambling site or crypto casinos that accept bitcoin by creating a blog or posted it on twitter and reddit because a lot of people are having some research on those sites. I also have recently discover a bitcoin casino which offers great bonuses and has a lot of famous casino games that you could actually play and enjoy like poker, baccarat, blackjack, roulette, and slots.

Wikipedia is a not good source for searching an information because anyone could edit it, that is why it is not advisable for any research purposes. It would be really good if you will just post it in a blog or any social media sites, but your posts may be deleted because there are a lot of countries that gambling sites are banned, so it will be difficult to promote a crypto gambling sites. I am also playing in a crypto casino that is very safe to play and you can also receive bonuses and prizes here.

I have the feelings there are already gambling articles on Wikipedia, might not really be based on crypto casino gambling,

thats also what im suspecting  . before when crypto/blockchain gambling is not yet born  , there were already online gambling site and most of them are card based like poker but crypto and blockchain based gambling should not be left behind  . its better that we recomend some to do the listing on the wikipedia page so that future generations will have a ready made reference  .

I honestly see nothing wrong with the idea, it would have really been nice but my challenge is with the bad reputation gambling has already. Wikipedia is opened for everyone both, the young and old.

Having casino sites on Wikipedia will be bad for minors because it would expose them quickly to the game. There are other people who have suffered traumatic experiences and are not fit to gamble because they can easily get addicted and having casino sites on Wikipedia would expose them to gambling and I feel it’s bad. Whoever that’s looking for a good casino sites that accept Bitcoin should carry out a proper research. There are a number of them here on this forum.
My own point is that children who want to gamble will still gamble irrespective of how they get to know about it. Today kids are very curious. Once they have passion in anything they desire, they will go to any length to dig out details. If kids have interest in gambling, whether its in Wikipedia or not they will look for every information’s they  need to carry out their safe gambling.

I would say that if there is any way this vital information can be placed on Wikipedia, it will really be a great idea because it will be a way to promote gambling and put it in a good light and also many will get to know about crypto casino which is a good idea.
I have the feelings there are already gambling articles on Wikipedia, might not really be based on crypto casino gambling, there might have been promotions that have been done about gambling on Wikipedia and if this really affects kids that means over 50% of kids would be gambling by now.

The interest of the kids are not on gambling as majority of them are already aware that it is not suitable for less than 18years of age, so regardless of where information that concerns gambling is kept, it will not have any negative impact on our younger ones. This is only my opinion and am not saying that information should be be on Wikipedia.

You must know that Wikipedia is not for business advertising and why you think this will be granted?
And besides almost all of the casino gambling via cryptocurrency is accepting bitcoib so what need a list?its just a one type away and google will answer yout queries so no need for Wikipedia

I think the op is an avid user of wikipedia more than google and obviously he wants more precise information rather than scattered information that we can find after using a google search  .  yet to some people that are on the go , they basically use google for all the stuffs that they want to search of find    .  
I am not sure there is any Wikipedia page that is highlighting casinos that accept Bitcoin but yes Google has all the information and we can find out much material about gambling sites or casinos which use Bitcoin as payment method. As far I know, there are online gambling sites for example Prime dice that accept the Bitcoin. Keeping in mind, there are many unsafe sites as well so you should find a good one.

Wikipedia is not a place to encourage people or to use as promotion. only great things can get a place there. for example, the MtGox Exchange which crashed in 2013 is on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mt._Gox and for casinos like the famous Satoshi Dice are on the separate wiki called bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_Dice.
You don't have to do anything, as long as they do their work properly they can someday be in bitcoin wiki.
I don't see the problem with such a list. This would direct more exposure towards the crypto gambling websites which is a plus in my opinion. Wikipedia promotes freedom of speech.

I would be willing to help out op if he garners enough support in this aspect.
Wikipedia is more on facts, histories and backgrounds of things being listed there but if in case casinos that accepts bitcoin are to be listed there, that will be a different set up in my thought. Not bad for an idea but don't you think Mr. Wiki will not be outmatched by Mr. Google? You can start doing it by the way, who knows if your idea will work.

I don't think that it will allow by Wikipedia to make a page about gambling. But if he can have a new website about gambling, maybe he can help gamblers to know how to win in every game especially how to make a good strategy in the betting game. But maybe if he can create a Wikipedia page of casinos that accepting bitcoin, people can know which site that they can use to play the game and it will help them to choose the recommended gambling site.

You sound reasonable and I am impressed with your opinion. There are a lot of people who are not qualified to gamble and it won’t be right to expose them to it since Wikipedia is a lace for everyone.

Let’s leave casino site information to the places it can easily be located, whoever that is in serious need of any information regarding gambling should know where to get it, must  not be on Wikipedia. There are so many avenues that have displayed where gambling sites can easily be seen so there is no need placing it on an open place where we can get everyone talking about gambling and seeing.
Anyone that edits such information especially that of a gambling site is only doing it in his own risk because eventually they would still be exposed. I trust my fellow gamblers, once they notice that the site is scam, they would drop negative reviews and soon many people would discover, so I feel that that even the scam site would not want to do that.

My only challenge with having casino site on Wikipedia is that it will give too many people reasons to condemn it more. We already know that gambling has a bad reputation to many, and exposing it too much will give many reasons to want to have it banned because they would feel that a game that is destructive to the young ones would be bad to be on Wikipedia

Wouldn't it be better to just make a list like that on the Bitcoin wiki?
Now, I'm not sure whether that would actually be allowed, since everybody can just edit those pages. Not sure if edits are reviewed before publishing them though.

I would just suspect that people would start adding their affiliate links and that it's going to be a real mess to moderate.

You know I own a little shop in our town. An internet cafe', even though so small still there are customers coming thru and most of them are students under at he age of 16. Almost all depends on the source of wikipedia for their research, what do you think will happened if those informations will be available for them. kids theses are explorative and want to try something new. With few bucks, and a smartphone they could gamble anytime and anywhere they want even at home instead of studying. Wikipedia should stay as it is I guess and should not be a tool of information that could lead to our futures' demise.
Kids these days are naturally good with research and they know how to explore, there are already existing sites that talks about casinos that accepts Bitcoin and even ranks them, so if these kids are truly interested in playing, they will still do other research that would link them to such sites. If you doubt this, you can carry out a little questionnaire on the kids that attend your café to know the possibility of them knowing casino sites that accept Bitcoin even though it is not on Wikipedia. You will be amazed at the answers you will get.

I support the idea totally and I feel it will be a great way to make Bitcoin and gambling more popular and it would even make search easier for those who are in need of the sites.
We know that kids are very good with research and that is the more reason why we should not bring it to their faces or make gambling sites easier for them to locate. Most kids go on Wikipedia strictly for educational research and exposing them to gambling at that tender age is no right.

It’s better for those who have interest in gambling to carry out an indebt study on their own, rather than making it easier for them. Gambling is not for underage and we should try as much as we can to avoid anything that would make them know about it. I am totally against having casino sites on Wikipedia and I doubt if Wikipedia itself would accept that.

You can always start your own wiki if you don't have permission to add to the Bitcoin Wiki.  I don't have an issue adding a casino list to it since they have no problem listing bitcoin exchanges.

And who is going to browse your wiki for the required information? Anyone can set up his own wiki with minimal effort and cost, and then add content to it. But attracting traffic is the most difficult point. Wikipedia is an already established site and it has tens of millions of visitors every day. That's why I say that setting up a thread here would be a better idea. This forum is also quite well established, and if we create a thread here then it can help a lot of the gamblers.
We know the reputation of Wikipedia but it is against on their terms for sure on making gambling site/casino list that accepts cryptocurrency.
So it is basically pointless on making up one and in fact people can still find up gambling sites with having some minimal effort on searching up
on the net.It do really need some small effort.

The problem with adding these sort of articles to Wikipedia is that since it is editable by anyone, scammers may delete the names of reputed gambling sites and then add the links to scam sites. And in the end, all this will have the opposite effect. People will lose their hard earned money after visiting these scam sites and the reputation of Wikipedia, cryptocurrency and online gambling as a whole will get tarnished. So I would strongly suggest using Google, rather than Wikipedia for this purpose.
You have a good point actually but I don’t think that scammers would do that. These scammers are very smart and they know actions that can easily backfire.  Replacing genuine sites with scam site would surely get busted and people will give reviews on the sites and most of this scam sites try as much as they can to keep their records clean, so they might not like that at all.

I am just not in support of it because I feel it will bring too much attention to gambling and would expose minors to the game which would still tarnish the reputation of gambling more than it is  already. Many already have negative opinions against gambling, now having it on Wikipedia would make it worse.

Yes, its one of the probabilities too why it isn't really possible to make up some list thru Wikipedia.There are really some various reasons which
had been mentioned already earlier.Simple google search doesn't really hurt at all but I don't know why people are way too lazy just to do a simple thing?

Actually i agree with you and i will try to share about the website of casino who accept the bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, but first time you must the link source of Wikipedia on here and the community of cryptocurrencies can makes contribution about the gambling website while accept the bitcoin on there. It will gives good information about the gambling website around the world which accept the bitcoin. And i like your ideas started on bitcointalk.

I think this is a splendid idea and it would be so kind of you take the initiative and start one.
My only concern is that anyone can edit these articles so they might not be 100% accurate.

You can always start your own wiki if you don't have permission to add to the Bitcoin Wiki.  I don't have an issue adding a casino list to it since they have no problem listing bitcoin exchanges.

And who is going to browse your wiki for the required information? Anyone can set up his own wiki with minimal effort and cost, and then add content to it. But attracting traffic is the most difficult point. Wikipedia is an already established site and it has tens of millions of visitors every day. That's why I say that setting up a thread here would be a better idea. This forum is also quite well established, and if we create a thread here then it can help a lot of the gamblers.
We know the reputation of Wikipedia but it is against on their terms for sure on making gambling site/casino list that accepts cryptocurrency.
So it is basically pointless on making up one and in fact people can still find up gambling sites with having some minimal effort on searching up
on the net.It do really need some small effort.

The problem with adding these sort of articles to Wikipedia is that since it is editable by anyone, scammers may delete the names of reputed gambling sites and then add the links to scam sites. And in the end, all this will have the opposite effect. People will lose their hard earned money after visiting these scam sites and the reputation of Wikipedia, cryptocurrency and online gambling as a whole will get tarnished. So I would strongly suggest using Google, rather than Wikipedia for this purpose.

You know I own a little shop in our town. An internet cafe', even though so small still there are customers coming thru and most of them are students under at he age of 16. Almost all depends on the source of wikipedia for their research, what do you think will happened if those informations will be available for them. kids theses are explorative and want to try something new. With few bucks, and a smartphone they could gamble anytime and anywhere they want even at home instead of studying. Wikipedia should stay as it is I guess and should not be a tool of information that could lead to our futures' demise.
That is the used of  Wikipedia, as a tool of information, gambling shouldn't be there because there is some young age that needs parental guidance and kids where like to explore everywhere and Wikipedia is easy to access and well known as a source of idea. Just like google chrome company and Facebook I think they never ads gambling site, unlike poker. Indeed, we have a better place for gambling and that is here in the forum and those websites for adults only.

Maybe wikipedia is not an appropriate place to store all data regarding crpyto gambling website. Maybe what we need is a wikipedia like crypto website that will list all the gambing website. I don't have any problem with having that kind of website to get information. I just go to section gambling here and from there i can find different list of gambling websites.

No need for Wikipedia, just wait for someone to start a thread here with the information that you need or maybe there's already an existing thread like that here. It is better if its here because it can be edited instantly and feedback can be seen right away by the thread starter if there's a need to edit, add or update.

why should there be any?!
wikipedia is not a place to advertise businesses, and i have never seen a list of any other businesses there either so i don't know why you think such list for "bitcoin casinos" should exist! there already are many other websites that list them with feedback, ranking,... which i think is more than enough.

There's plenty of "categories" on Wikipedia. For example, "Companies based in [Insert State Here]". TBH, not sure how it's any different.

For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Companies_based_in_Ontario

@OP, the problem is that Wikipedia tends to use Category pages for purposes like these, and generally AFAIK Category pages primarily include businesses/operations which already exist & have a page on Wikipedia.

I'm assuming many of the casinos probably don't have a Wikipedia page already, and a large majority of them probably wouldn't be eligible for one (I highly doubt the page will stay up long for a small casino, for example).

Haha you are correct, instead of saying Wikipedia page here. He may write about that wiki directly.

I think Wikipedia is not a good place where to promote gambling, because they are very strict on it. I don't know if that website is the best for gambling-related stuff, so far I didn't see everyone on some page that relate gambling. Maybe they think that it contains bad to practice especially in minor age. We have here a community in the forum that we can directly ask, and of course we are different than Wikipedia website.

I disagree, if you really wanted to see which casino's really accepts bitcoin then this community is the answer. Besides, wikipedia has a very strict rule as far as what you can post in their page and as soon as they realize that you are promoting something against their TOS, sooner or later it will be flagged down and taken offline.

Being an active user of Wikipedia, I would say that it is not possible to create such an article there. Such a list will be immediately flagged as "promotion" or "advertising" and after reviewing by the admins it will be deleted. Hence I would say that there is no use in spending our precious time in creating such an article or even a sub-section of an existing article.
I think it should not be like that. We should have information about the best casinos that accept Bitcoin around the world. This should be on Wikipedia because so many people use Wikipedia and they should know about such things. Google also helps you find such casinos. One could also compile the list of famous Bitcoin casinos and upload it their websites which might help others. If you do that for the leading crypto casinos, it would not be counted as advertisements or promotion as they already got users.

There are a lot of lists of trusted crypto currency casinos here, so I guess it is sufficient, people will just need to update it.
There's a few overview thread for bitcoin casinos and this but it's not updated.  OP might have a different list of his own or wants to include tons of casino in his list. Even though we can find a lot of lists from searching, creating a new one could still be helpful just like the existing threads from this board and it depends on what things or details he'll list.


Creating another will be simplified those information which is not organized yet, if OP have  a good list and he manage to organized everything in one place then it can be much better for the benefits of the readers who wanted to learn more about this field.

Would have given a nod to your idea if I hadn't read the comments.  The commenters made good points.

Guess you are looking for a well-known website for this? You could create a separate wiki website for gambling and games then. Why not?. It could become just as popular as Wikipedia in the future.  Gaming and gambling are quite popular on the Internet these days.

I think we should not abuse Wikipedia to promote the bitcoin casinos. All players want it, so the platform they are using may not be noticed by too many people, so limiting promotion on popular platforms is a great thing. Gambling is not a great thing so don't recommend it on Wikipedia.

Everyone is busy with increasing their post-count and no one seems to have noticed my post. Let me clarify:

1. Wikipedia articles are constantly monitored.
2. Although you can make edits to the existing articles, these edits will be reviewed (especially of you are a new user)
3. In case the reviewer finds that you are indulging in promotion or advertising, then he will revert the edits and ban you from Wikipedia
4. If you are creating a new article instead of editing an existing article, then most probably that article will be nominated for "quick deletion" after review by the moderators
5. Your account, as well as the IP that you used for making the edit will be banned.

I think the OP should create one Wikipedia page about casinos that accept bitcoin so people can add more website to that page.
Soon, if many people can add recommended gambling website, the public will know that cryptocurrency can be used for playing gambling.
But we need to explain to them that playing gambling can make them get an addict and they must know the risk of playing gambling.
Besides creating the Wikipedia page, I think it's better if we can add the games that available in each site in the short explaining.

Google can provide you a lot of sources, lists, and reviews about casinos and I don't think wikipedia is the right place for it. This should be moved to gambling discussion section, not bitcoin related.
I definitely agree with you we can easily search and look for it online aside from those information some site also provides the feedbacks of other people about those casino online you can even look in this forum because as far as I know there are some people share their own knowledge and experiences which is a great help for us especially for newbies. Maybe he just wanted to help other people but nowadays people usually takes everything easy using technology. Well I do love looking for new experiences and opportunities from other site but I was able to find the best bitcoin casino for me that offers plenty of gaming games and free bonuses but when there is a time that I want to try something new and different I can easily look for it or I just ask some of my friends. Actually, its great idea I know that you just want to help people to take some opportunities to find the best casino site for them and help them play and enjoy but you should also think about the outcomes and look for some other information that can help you. A lot of newbies are in doubt and feel discombobulated about some list because most of them are just scam sites so if you are really determine to help then it is your choice though.

A simple effort to search on it via our favorite search engine is enough.

Why do people are lazy enough to search up things and everything they do like to be automated or simply spoonfeed?
Yes, he could've thought of making it in a much easier way. Even with this list these people won't gets satisfied, because they'll try to find something missing, else he is gonna get into gambling for the very first time. Anyhow congrats on the effort being made in support to Wikipedia.

Would definitely be good for exposing more people to cryptocurrency based gambling as many people are still not aware that this exists, but I don't see this happening anytime soon still. Wikipedia currently only has a tiny section for online casinos which can be viewed here (click for link), and the only one I know out of the three that accepts Bitcoin is Bet365, and I can find only one match for the word cryptocurrency in the Online Gambling article on there (click for link). Seems like they're not too keen on adding lists in the first place as well.

Wikipedia is not a place to encourage people or to use as promotion. only great things can get a place there. for example, the MtGox Exchange which crashed in 2013 is on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mt._Gox and for casinos like the famous Satoshi Dice are on the separate wiki called bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Satoshi_Dice.
You don't have to do anything, as long as they do their work properly they can someday be in bitcoin wiki.
I don't see the problem with such a list. This would direct more exposure towards the crypto gambling websites which is a plus in my opinion. Wikipedia promotes freedom of speech.
