- Remove the following information from the first paragraph: “is a humorous party card game from Jerry Media in which players propose caption cards as a match to a designated photo (or meme) card. The judge of the round chooses the caption that they think is the best match to photo card, and whoever played that card gets a point. The name of the game refers to internet memes and is a play on the phrase what do you mean. The game has been compared to Cards Against Humanity.[1] The game was created by Elliot Tebele and Ben Kaplan in 2016. It was”

 Declined I've declined your request. First, this is an article about the game, not the company. From the sources you've provided, the company appears to only produce the game and expansions / new additions, so the company is not itself notable. Second, references to donations, pool floats, and other products are not really related to the game (moreover, unless there are significant product reviews, I don't think they're notable). Finally, I'm not sure if the additional expansion packs / editions are the only ones that have been released, and there's already mention of the Spongebob expansion as an example, which seems sufficient. As an alternative, I would suggest proposing a new section listing each of the expansions / editions. voorts (talk/contributions) 22:41, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
