[edit] Other images needed

The only images i could find were the ones on the right which obviously do not fit into the table. If anyone happens to have the approriate pictures, that would be great :)

[edit] Major Revision

I just completed a major overhaul of the page, trying to make it sound more formal and to make things clearer and more concise. I rearranged things, organized the page more, and added some new areas.

I apologize for throwing out a lot of the previous work, but I felt that a lot of the examples were unnecessary and made the page less clear and straightforward.

The flow was also in need of work, and now things are all in one place.

If people disagree with the changes I made, I would like to hear your thoughts.--OneTwentySix 07:15, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger proposal

I count at least five Sheepshead stubs that probably don't need to exist on their own: Blind (Sheepshead), Schneider (Sheepshead), Leasters (Sheepshead), Long (Sheepshead), Walk (Sheepshead). Did I miss any? Can anyone compelling argue that these articles need to stand alone? —Rossumcapek (talk) 18:07, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

This article is very long, and so proper practice is to break out sections for more detailed coverage. There is no reason to merge Leaster and Long and plenty of reason not to. Blind Scneider and walk could be merged. On the other hand, merging Schafkopf is completely wrong. It's a different game. It's like merging the Model T article with the Taurus article. 2005 (talk) 20:26, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

The current page is under 30K. Per WP:SIZE, anything under 30K doesn't merit splitting for length alone. Since none of the other articles contain more than 1K each, I really don't see the point in keeping these separate. If Schafkopf a completely different game, then it needs to be expanded as such. Currently, it's only assertion of notability is that Sheepshead was derived from it. That doesn't merit its own article.--Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 19:59, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
