Merged into Card sharp with abundant reliable sources for doing so (and even more sources supporting this merge are at Talk:Card sharp, along with a thorough analysis backing the merge). The Card shark variant has no sources, and none have been provided for it in discussion, either, with nothing but a personal position on the matter being advanced aggressively, in a very combative manner. The nominee stub's principal defender is a hair away from a block for several successive personal attacks, repetitive baseless accusations of bad faith with regard to merge-related edits, revert warring and deleting others' talk page posts over this issue, with decreasing civility and wikiquette (including reductio ad Hitlerum/Godwin's law), and increasing disruptiveness. I had the pages protected for a while on the basis that the dispute could probably be resolved at Talk:Card sharp, but the Card shark stub's advocate won't engage in the discussion (deleting it rather), so AfD seems to be the only course for resolution. Either consensus will be that my sourcing is somehow faulty and that these should be separate articles, or that Card shark should be deleted and replaced with a redirect to Card sharp, and any continued contrarian and personal-opinion-based restoration of the sourceless Card shark as a competing PoV-forked article will be speedily deleted. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 09:05, 5 December 2007 (UTC) PS: Just to be complete, I note that the separation of these articles has one other proponent at Talk:Card sharp than the aggressive party already mentioned, but who also has not provided any sources backing this view, nor attempted to show the sources cited for the merge to be deficient. — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 09:27, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
