 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Suggest redirect and very partial merger to Mao (card game), of which this is a trivial variant. This one's so old its whiskers have whiskers.  An article for local folklore created in 2004.  Note that the game is in fact referenced in a textbook of game design, but I can't see enough of the source to determine whether it is dependent on Wikipedia.  This is played with standard playing cards; not a product.  Smerdis of Tlön - killing the human spirit since 2003! 01:37, 17 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Notable I think.  I need to go to bed right now, but I'll list the sources I found tomorrow. SpinningSpark 00:42, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Introduction to Game Design, Prototyping, and Development, pages 4 to 11, extensively examines Bartok as a game design example.
 * A paper from Proceedings of the 4th Australasian Conference on Interactive Entertainment, 2007 deals with Bartok over three pages.
 * The Penguin Book of Card Games has a non-trivial entry for it.
 * A paper from Proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Foundations of Digital Games has a discussion of Bartok as a design demonstration.
 * Besides these, there are many pages on the web giving how-to information on Bartok, and they are mostly not Wikipedia mirrors. SpinningSpark 09:51, 30 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep per SpinningSpark's sources. StAnselm (talk) 11:18, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
