The page was was deleted and protected because Lasse Gjertsen was regarded as not notable. The Norwegian Wikipedia has a well documented article that states that he is notable. Hogne 16:20, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

This is a common enough game to be listed in Wikipedia. This is of course a subjective comment. Looking at articles objectively, "The Game" needs no more justification as an article than Tag (game). This article is tagged with not citing sources, which is part of the problem with The Game (game). "The Game" should be undeleted and a tag added calling for sources. These two articles should be treated with the same objective standards. Personally, and subjectively, I'm a camp counselor and "The Game" has been played at every camp that I've worked at where "Tag" is played. I personally hate the game so you can't blame me for teaching it to them, but the game exists. Perhaps it's a Northeast/Midwest thing that hasn't made it to the deep south or west coast, but if it spans the country from New York to Chicago I think that's significant enough for listing. 5000 is the current number for significance, right? I'm sure that more than 5000 children in the state of Illinois alone play this game. In Defense of the Artist 16:13, 20 March 2007 (UTC) |

The article was deleted initially by an editor that failed upon request to disclose if conflict exists with this subject matte. It was edited by several editors who failed to disclose if they had conflict, when requested. Although the reasons for delete were stated and changed to comply with wikipedias rules, several of the editors continued to move for delete. Certain of the comments made by editors were wholly false, ie that there were no sources other than press releases when several news articles were cited. Those editors claiming such had removed the news articles although being informed that they were from highly reputable sources and were unbiased articles on the subject not press release. Many of the editors, although all were asked to disclose any conflicts, refused such courtesy, casting a negative light on the whole review as biased and possibly jeopardizing the integrity of Wikipedia, these authors claimed even that editors are not under conflict rules themselves. Several of the editors were trying to work on the article to make it work and it originally was worked on and approved by the initial editor of a related article Iviewit, also under deletion review. Iviewit was also removed by the same editor who fails to disclose conflict here under repeated requests. If Wikipedia has no rules for editors to disclose conflict with their edits when requested than Wikipedia has lost its credibility and integrity and that will be a shame for all who use it. I request that these matters going forward, due to the nature of the issues involved and reasons already stated in the discussions, begin and end by editors willing to disclose conflict prior to action or opinion. No conflict, should equal no reason not to so state publicly, it is not an insulting request it is a request to insure integrity in matters where conflicts could prevent unbiased edits and editors removing significant source material and then claiming it is not there. I would also like a rules committee to review the editorial conflict rules and assess if under extraordinary circumstances as these require, this is a viable request, upfront conflict disclosure upon request, to maintain the integrity of the publication. Since these statements have no harm if no conflict exists, and greater improves the integrity of the publication it seems only prudent. --Iviewit 02:43, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
