  • I don't really see a valid reason for deletion in this nomination. Yes, it's unreferenced, but references can be added, if they are available. It's not "complete nonsense" at all.--BelovedFreak 20:45, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment It makes sense to me, and I rather think that the phrase is well-known in Ireland: here are four news items [1], [2], [3] and [4]. Sergeant Cribb (talk) 20:47, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - The article is incomplete, and it does not have any reference to sustain its notability (the verifiability factor), however a preliminary research gives a good background to be either added or sourced to the article, thus it is notable and should be kept.

  • Keep. No references is at least one reference too short in my book, but the content is not that badly written, and my only concern is whether it is research. As for deletion, the casual way the term is used goes great ways to show how notable it is (at least for Ireland), which is to be expected as it refers to a life event that many citizens are unremarkably familiar with.
