This article was nominated for deletion on 3 January 2010 (UTC). The result of the discussion was keep.

Prod[edit]

This article was prodded on December 13, 2006 with the reason "Now, I played this game as a child like most people, but this article is just terrible." I agree, the article is poor. But the subject is notable (per nom), and being badly written is not normally grounds for deletion. Perhaps someday it will be improved. Matchups 17:31, 18 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cats[edit]

Not sure why my previous addition was removed. I don't see any discussion... In any event, it is a serious addition and I have re-added it. Please let me know if you want to discuss it. RBarryYoung (talk) 14:29, 22 August 2009 (UTC)RBarryYoung[reply]

A serious addition ? Seriously ? Do you really mean there are cats that are able to imagine the floor is made of lava (or maybe water :-) ) so they can't touch it while moving ? WendelScardua (talk) 14:15, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Broken Link[edit]

The external link to the game rules is broken. Kazuko Kodo (talk) 21:31, 1 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Teens[edit]

The article says,

"The game is popular between kids and teens.."

I could imagine a bunch of five-year-olds pretending that a floor is lava, but teens seem a bit mature for it. I have changed this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.242.219.182 (talk) 13:54, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wait, I take it back. I noticed it said it has become increasingly popular over older kids and teens, meaning that it is now targeting a more mature audience. Even though i can't picture it, I'm removing it until a proper source is found. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.242.219.182 (talk) 13:59, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The floor is lava → Hot lava (game) – "The floor is lava" is just a currently trending meme that is just simply words for starting the game of hot lava. That's my opinion, but should there be a move request, I don't think it should be a technical request. 76.116.198.27 (talk) 11:59, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:COMMONNAME the article should be "The floor is lava". TarkusAB 13:35, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The sources on the article state the name is "the floor is lava", and as TarkusAB says, it's per COMMONNAME, unless you can find a source that states otherwise. Vaselineeeeeeee^★★★ 13:44, 10 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose – Current memes aside, "the floor is lava" does indeed appear to be the common name. V2Blast (talk) 10:22, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
