Grounders

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Article about a non-notable playground game that is completely unreferenced and only explains the rules of the game without explaining why it is notable. Fails WP:NOTHOWTO, borderline WP:NFT. KuyaBriBri Talk 17:28, 6 April 2009 (UTC) 
 * Delete as per nomination —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dylanfromthenorth (talk • contribs) 18:16, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It used to be a redirect to Tag (game), but as observed there when it was erased from that article, there were no accompanying sources. Searching, I cannot find any sources documenting this even as a simple alternative name for Tag (game), let alone as a game in its own right, so there's nothing to support even restoring that original redirect here.  The only things that even mention it are outdated mirrors on the WWW of Tag (game), which has suffered greatly from original research problems over the years (see its edit history).  The only things that grounders appear to really be, according to what sources say, are ground balls in baseball. This is unverifiable. Delete, or redirect to batted ball, according to taste.

 * Delete per nom. I can't find any source for this version, either - the only game I could find was basically hide-and-seek in the dark with flashlights, quite different form this. JohnCD (talk) 19:20, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,  MBisanz  talk 00:14, 11 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete as unsourceable, failing WP:V. Reads like just another playground game that has not received any coverage beyond the people who play it. ~ mazca  t 19:26, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
