Not a very notable topic, currently completely unsourced, and lacks context to assert notability. Edit history includes many cultural references (mostly pop-culture) in which this particular attack was used. &mdash; KieferSkunk (talk) &mdash; 18:53, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep I found three reference from a reasonable sources (The Daily Express, The Independent, and The Sun (newspaper)): ,,. I think the current state of the article (with all of the pop culture rubbish removed) is acceptable. OhNo itsJamie Talk 19:13, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Question - Why so serious? -- Explodicle (T/C) 19:31, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - the sources provided above demonstrate that this is a real injury, and this phrase is commonly used (at least in the UK) to describe it. If there are too many pop-culture examples, that's a problem for cleanup, not deletion. Robofish (talk) 22:57, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - I would have thought "chelsea smile" the more common term though. Artw (talk) 00:36, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Keep per Ohnoitsjamie. The amount of coverage in reliable sources gives this topic notability. A Stop at Willoughby (talk) 22:28, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
