Sevens from hell[edit]

I can't find any evidence this is a common card game, at least not under the name Sevens from hell. --fvw* 00:30, 2005 Jan 9 (UTC)

  • Zero Google hits. Much too excessive for an encyclopedia article. Maybe move it to another WikiMedia partner? RickK 00:36, Jan 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to Wikibooks, perhaps? Alphax (t) (c) (e) 04:19, Jan 9, 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, vanity card game. Wyss 01:25, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, do not transwiki; I don't see a need for the rules of an unknown card game to be stored anywhere. Wile E. Heresiarch 03:58, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • In defense of the entry (by the person who originally wrote it), the entire reason that Wikipedia was chosen as a place to make this information public was because there are no Google hits (isn't the point of an encyclopedia to be a central authority?). The game has a following in Florida, and I've had people ask for a complete set of rules. I'll repost it on my personal web page, regardless of the vote here. 11 Jan 2005
WP is a general reference, not an exhaustively inclusive database (or authority on card games). Re Google, you got the order wrong (that's ok- lots of people misunderstand WP)... it's Google hits first (and other cultural noise), WP article later :) Wyss 06:35, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete as original creation. Tried Google...zero hits. Tried for a speedy...wound up here. Oh, well. At least the creator was gracious enough to comment in a rational manner. To that creator: Establish a username here. Quickly. This may be an original article, but it's a damned good-looking and well-formatted one. - Lucky 6.9 21:41, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Me too on that :) Wyss 23:05, 11 Jan 2005 (UTC)
it's a good article and your writing is welcome, but help us establish the notability if you want to have this article stay. Pedant
  • If, it can be established that it is indeed has a significant "following", then I would vote to keep. Just because it isn't on Google doesn't mean it isn't notable. But there does need to be some way to verify this. Paul August 04:05, Jan 14, 2005 (UTC)
