Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Game (game) (6th nomination)
Almost by definition, this is |something made up one day.  It isn't a board game or a computer game or anything similar; its a meme.  It has been mentioned in one (1) newspaper, in a way that doesn't appear to be remotely close to the tone of a traditional newpaper article.  I suspect this was a humor piece, at best.  Furthermore, the presence of a website with the self-stated goal of convincing otherwise reliable sources to cover the topic ''for the purpose'' of earning recognition as a |verifiable topic here is disturbing.  Keeping in mind that the article ''itself'' suggests that knowledge of the game is scant in the article's likely audience (but high in places with heavy Wikipedia participation), I do not think it is |a violation of good faith to believe the website's goal was successful, and that this article exists because ''De Morgan'' did not realize it was being used by those wishing to prop up a Wikipedia article.  With the danger of incestuous amplification so high in this case, we should be demanding correspondingly stringent references ... not one unserious article in a relatively minor foreign-language newspaper
