This article has been a target of blatantly non-neutral editing, and its subject in general is rather unnotable. I am Quibilia. (talk) 03:14, 29 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Can you summarize the history of the non-neutral edits? Glowimperial (talk) 21:20, 31 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep, meets WP:GNG, well referenced article. Coolabahapple (talk) 14:40, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
 * WP:GNG specifies that the article should also follow WP:NOT, especially WP:INDISCRIMINATE. I would like to point out a nearby section, WP:NOTNEWS: Half of the sources in this article are news or similar sources, typically considered unreliable (see WP:NEXIST: Simply because an article makes good use of sources does not indicate the notability of those sources). I concede, however, that the article does appear to follow the general guidelines for WP:GNG, and am reconsidering my stance on its deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quibilia (talk • contribs) 16:26, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, I accept what you are saying above, i was going to suggest a redirect/merge but on having a look at other piercing articles was unsure where it could be directed to. Coolabahapple (talk) 07:46, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak Keep - but only because there's a little bit of content worth saving here and no reasonable target to merge to. If there were a merge target, I would definitely not be arguing to keep. I would recommend someone create Draft:Oral piercing as it looks like we have several articles that could be combined: labret, lip piercing, philtrum piercing, jestrum piercing, lip frenulum piercing, tongue frenulum piercing, tongue piercing, cheek piercing, monroe piercing.... Some, like tongue and lip, can probably sustain their own articles, too, but I note that there are a whole lot of sources which combine these as "oral piercing", including many high quality medical/dental sources. &mdash;  Rhododendrites talk  \\ 12:37, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
