[edit] Kajabe can can
Contested prod. Game which may by WP:MADEUP and seems un-notable. A number of mentions on Google, mostly from user-generated content sites. When YouTube and MySpace are excluded, less than 20 hits, none of which more than mention it in passing. No verifiable information. kateshortforbob 23:21, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

Kajabe Can Can is mentioned on the Hume Lake wikipedia page. It is a real game that has been played by many high schoolers who have attended Hume Lake Christian Camps. It has been around for a very long time. I dont know what other evidence i can provide except the pictures on the Hume website (If you go to any Ponderosa week for Tuesday you should see some pictures) and the many sites that discuss its origin at Hume. Also in the "Can You?" video on the Ponderosa page of the Hume Lake website Can You? there is footage of this game being played. Also on this Chiang Mai site it talks about Hume Staff playing Kajabe Can Can with missionary kids in other countries. Putting on Camps for missionary kids outside The United States is something that Hume Lake Christian Camps has been doing for a long time. SyrupisSweet 03:39, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Before we get to evidence that it exists, there needs to be evidence that the subject is notable, which in general means that it has been written about by someone independent of the organisation, and published in a reliable source, ie a book, magazine or newspaper. The references you have provided do not provide this. Kevin 05:54, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete - there seems to be no doubt that the game is real and is really played by some people, however it doesn't meet verifiable notability. -- Roleplayer 15:25, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Use of first person pronouns is usually a good sign of non-notability. JIP | Talk 10:02, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
