No consensus to move. Vegaswikian (talk) 06:37, 18 May 2010 (UTC) User:Bigskyrat/TurboCrib → TurbCrib — A new article about a variation on the venerable game of cribbage. Bigskyrat (talk) 03:47, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

I've played this Cribbage version and would like to see its inclusion in Wikipedia Petejk (talk) 19:56, 7 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Oppose - There is no indication this is about a notable game. The two sources are a site trying to sell products and a facebook page, neither one is a reliable source.  The page appears to be more of an attempt to try to get visits to the website rather than am actual encyclopedia article.   GB fan  talk 01:16, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Oppose. GB fan says it well. Deor (talk) 23:43, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

The game is indeed available for sale, on the same site that lists the rules and some history behind the game. This is at present the primary source, with the Facebook page simply to show images of the game. However there is a thriving community of players that enjoy the game - as a cribbage variant surely it merits inclusion on Wikipedia. After all, many games have listings?

 * You should read notability guidelines. The guideline says that for something to have an article it needs to meet the notability guidelines.  The guidelines go on to say for something to be notable there must be significant coverage in reliable sources.  If the only two sources for this game are a facebook page (not reliable) and a website that is trying to sell the game (not reliable) then the subject is not notable.  Your statement above confirms what I have been able to find through searches, that the game is not notable at this time.  It is possible for reliable sources to pick up on this game in the future which would make it notable.   GB fan  talk 00:55, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Also you need to read conflict of interest. I am not sure if you are connected with the company trying to sell this game, but I am sure that Bigskyrat is Don Robinson.   GB fan  talk 01:38, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
