Bat a rat

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Very trivial game with just one reference and little notability beyond it being a variation on the Whac-A-Mole concept. Why have a stand alone article?I recommend deletion and possible merging of basic theme into the main Whac-A-Mole article. SpyMagician (talk) 06:52, 30 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Keep Not the same as Whac-a-Mole which was an arcade game with quite different mechanics. In any case, merger would mean that we don't delete per WP:MAD. Andrew D. (talk) 08:33, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with Andrew D. that it wouldn't be a valid redirect to whac-a-mole, as they're very different concepts. It's not the most common game out there, but Google searches indicates it's widespread enough to meet WP:GNG. (Might be better moving it to 'splat the rat', and a photograph would help the article a lot) Aspirex (talk) 11:03, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep with 47,000 hits, there's several hitts on page one alone that push this over the meek requirements of WP:GNG. Dusti*Let's talk!* 01:11, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
