Marks up

Non-notable children's game. Looks like something made up in school one day. Andrew Levine 01:26, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Actually Andrew, it is a fairly common game played in Australia, and although it may not be known overseas, it is well-known in parts of Australia. I was expanding a stub on the Aussie Rules page, but I am fairly new here and still learning the ropes and I am still learning what to do and what not to do, so if you feel that this wiki should be deleted, then by all means, go ahead. --Stuart D. 05:44, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, Stuart. We have to be able to provide reliable sources to back the information up. See WP:CITE and WP:V. Andrew Levine 06:06, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for that Andrew, I will try and do the right thing by Wikipedia in the future. --Stuart D. 06:33, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete for lack of sources and verifiability; Google search for ("marks up" + game) and ("markers up" + game) both yielded no relevant results. --MCB 06:11, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per MCB. Had a look at some playground games site and couldn't find this one. I can and will happily change that vote if someone can come up with a good link. I think half the problem here is that a lot of these playground games have different names - it might be called something else and be abundantly listed on the web under that name. Welcome to WP Stuart, don't let these things put you off. QuagmireDog 06:39, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
• Abstain/comment; IMO, I think something like this can lack Internet hits. I'm willing to keep this if references and the right links are found. —Jared Hunt September 24, 2006, 23:21 (UTC)
