[edit] Nose game (2nd nomination)

Nose game (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) - (View log)

1st VfD, from July 2005

After 18 months, this article still hasn't done much for Wikipedia. It is poorly written and not correctly wikified (AfD is not cleanup) and describes a game that does not need to be documented here.

This was deleted per the first VfD, but was recreated on 28 December 2006 by User:Bigdanoneill (talk/contribs). As such, it may also qualify for CSD G4. TRKtvtce 03:48, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete - Very poor aticle, fails google search for notability RyanPostlethwaiteSee the mess I've created or let's have banter 03:55, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as not sufficiently notable and lacking in sourcing. However, let it be known that I frequently use this process, which my friends and I call "Nose Goes", to decide who has to do crap. Still... non-notable. -- Kicking222 03:57, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Even if verified, such information doesn't deserve its own article. Surely, Iona Opie has documented this method, or something much like it. The information belongs with articles concerning children's games or folklore. Nick Graves 04:05, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, unverified, non-notable game. JIP | Talk 05:55, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, I've heard of it, but no sources, et cetera. Not even a game, really. Mangojuicetalk 10:45, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Sure, there are thousands of such games, does it mean Wikipedia has to include them all? You should also submit some of the List of traditional children's games entries if you're at it. Michaelas10 (Talk) 17:33, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Does this game actually exist? Sounds suspiciously like something made up in school one day. I'd think Rock, Paper, Scissors (now, thats a well sourced article) would be THE game to play in choosing someone to do something nasty. Anyways, it looks to be original research, does not cite sources for external reference. --Eqdoktor 18:10, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete not as dumb as I thought it would be, but unreferenced and not quite article material either. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:56, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect to Selection methods. It is a known game[1][2], but does not justify an article. I would like someone searching for it on wikipedia to find something. AntiVan 03:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
