Groin attack
All the relevant information regarding someone being injured in the genital region belongs on the pages devoted to those portions of anatomy. The page was originally created as a joke to link from Steven Seagal. We don't need this page any more than we need a page called "shin kick" to detail what happens when you kick someone in the shins. Halloween jack 17:46, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep but add sources and clean up a little. I think the page has grown substantially from being a joke page. The cultural and self defense references add to the encyclopedic value this article could have---however, they do need to be properly sourced and a little better formatted.

 * Keep. Agne summed it up. --Ginkgo100 talk · contribs · e@ 18:59, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per above. It might make me cringe, but it's pretty well written and referenced, and I can't see what's unencyclopedic about it.  RGTraynor 19:08, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Though it pains me to say it, Keep. Love the biblical quotation! An attack on the groin seems to have specific (and referenced) legal, social, and cultural implications, but for some reason the name doesn't quite sit right with me. If anyone can suggest a better one, I'd recommend a rename keep. Z iggurat 02:14, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep not a joke page -- believe me, groin attacks are no joke!!! --Ghetteaux 06:20, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep but the picture should probably be removed, it is very difficult to make it out. Yamaguchi先生 08:59, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong keep - the topic has social relevance far beyond that of a "shin kick", which, to my knowledge is not Biblically punishable by dismemberment, nor does it feature as a scene à faire in comedy. That this attack is both forbidden and a frequent source of humor is worthy of explication. bd2412  T 12:35, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
