Scharwenzel
Source: "...a 32-card game is recorded in Germany in 1715 under the name Scharwentzeln" from Parlett (1990) A History of Card Games. Also "We now have direct confirmation of this, since a version of Scharwenzel is still played on the German island of Fehmarn." from McLeod (2006) "Playing the Game: Scharwenzel" in The Playing Card, Vol. 35, No. 2. and "...Scharwenzel wird allein auf Fehmarn gespielt" in Bräuche und Traditionen at www.fehmarn-travel.de.
 * ... that Scharwenzel is a card game, at least three centuries old, that is only played today on the German island of Fehmarn?

 * Symbol voting keep.svg I have reviewed this article and I believe it meets all the criteria and is ready for DYK. The only problem I found was that the sfn links in the citations did not link to the full bibliographic entries at the end of the article, but I have now corrected this error and formatted the bibliography so that the links will work. I am accepting information from offline sources in good faith. The nominator has already fulfilled QPQ, so there are no issues there. I think this article is ready to go. --Katolophyromai (talk) 18:29, 30 November 2018 (UTC)
