Conflict of Interest Disclosure and Request for Review

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

I am the creator of this card game and would like to disclose the following:

(a) There are no references to this card game anywhere on the web because I created it from scratch last year. Nothing like it exists anywhere.

(b) There is no conflict of interest as I seek no financial or personal gain from it. I am not even requesting to be credited as the inventor.

(c) I work with old people and have been using this game to help them fight off Alzheimer's. Based on my informal observations over the past year, people who are playing it are benefitting from it.

Thank you for reviewing my article. LarryKavounas (talk) 05:43, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If there is no coverage of it anywhere on the web then the subject is going to be non-notable by Wikipedia standards. See WP:GNG (general notability guidelines) for further info on this point.

As far as I can see there is no reason for the article to be accepted into article mainspace because it simply isn't notable.

If you wish to publicise the game rules, the best way to do that would be via a dedicated website, rather than using Wikipedia as a webhost. Axad12 (talk) 07:03, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, Axad12, thank you for the perspective, I will do that. Thanks again. 75.32.229.235 (talk) 15:36, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
