Now it's a stub[edit]

After so much copied/pasted info was removed from the article—justifiably—it isn't start-class any longer. I've changed it to a stub and will add the appropriate template to the article.

http://www.gtoal.com/wordgames/rules/lexicon.html might be a good reference for the article, but do not copy & paste it here, as was done before. Thanks! — Geekdiva (talk) 03:45, 23 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Notability tag[edit]

Does this article still warrant the {{notability}} tag? Is there something else that needs to be done to resolve the issues pertaining to that tag? Mind matrix 15:08, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
