[edit] Travel Games

The article has no proper meaning and lists games which are both immature and dangerous. The page is not encyclopediac. Erebus555 16:04, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, not needed. --Thorpe | talk 16:08, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
• An encyclopedia article can certainly be written about travel games. See, for example, here. This article ain't it, though, and this miscapitalized title would merit a redirect at best. (We probably already have an article; while I couldn't find one, I didn't look very hard.) —Cryptic (talk) 16:31, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Duh, the article itself links to car game. Redirect Merge the lead there; I've just redirected travel game and travel games. —Cryptic (talk) 16:34, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect to car game but do NOT merge these stupid games as new content. Endomion 18:15, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
• Redirect as per Endomion. --King of All the Franks 18:17, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
• Comment without vote. "Travel Games" - usually in all caps - was a line offered by Parker Brothers since the 1970s before Hasbro bought it, Milton Bradley, and a few other game companies. In each case - including "Travel Sorry," "Travel Battleship," and "Travel Monopoly" - it was a modified version to fit the traveler's pocket. The Travel Games line barely lives on, with games that were formerly Milton Bradley games. B.Wind 22:23, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment: These older companies have produced a few new travel versions of old games such as Travel Scrabble. Other companies have adopted the idea, such as Travel Blokus from Educational Insights. No relevance to the deleteworthy article in question. Barno 21:24, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
