[edit] Head browsing
Browsing game to find sites using random characters. Deletable cos original research but definitely a candidate for speedy to BJAODN. -- RHaworth 18:33, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
- "Don't use any part of your wanger..." OK. This is why drugs are bad, children. Delete. No CSD met in my opinion.--CastAStone 18:47, 6 October 2005 (UTC)
- Hm, the article definately needs editing, but I don't think deletion is warranted. The game appears orignal, as far as I can see, but perhaps merging might be an option. Any ideas?

- 81.103.136.218, in saying that "the game appears original", ironically puts xyr finger on exactly the problem with this article. The article cites no sources, and I can locate no sources describing this game. The existence of any such game is unverifiable. 81.103.136.218's and 213.249.155.233's modifications to the article to change one of the rules, without citing a source for the modified versions of the rule, also imply that this is simply made up from whole cloth. As RHaworth says, this appears to be an attempt to use Wikipedia as a soapbox to advertise (and, indeed, as a free wiki host for constructing the rules for) a newly invented game. Wikipedia is neither an advertising billboard nor a free wiki host. It's an encyclopaedia. The author should use xyr own web site for this sort of thing. Delete. Uncle G 03:56, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
