Deletion

I object to this deletion. This is a legitimate phenomenon, which involves many individuals. Wikipedia should therefore capture this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fiesty1010101 (talk • contribs) 19:29, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

This might be a legitimate phenomenon but it doesn't deserve its own article. Maybe it should be combined with drinking games or viral drinking games or whatever. Every meme doesn't necessarily merit an article all its own. PurpleChez (talk) 01:06, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

How was deletion nomination removed after one day? Where is the discussion for this? 69.171.128.177 (talk) 04:03, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

having not checked the history (don't care that much), assuming prod was probably declined due to inline citations with references to reliable sources, proving outright notability. riffic (talk) 04:37, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

The AfD nomination was done by an IP but was incomplete. It languished for a while, then someone removed the template. If you intend to nominate it make sure to follow all of the directions on that page, or easier, use a tool like Twinkle if you're an autoconfirmed user. I doubt it would be deleted though at this point. It's received significant coverage. Shadowjams (talk) 13:38, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Other

I love how in the rules sections it says that it has 2 rules, followed by 3 points... the last one not really being a rule, but rather some arbitrary fact about some fictional game called Hokey. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sir Joe Cool (talk • contribs) 20:59, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Rules?

The article only says that it's a drinking game that requires drinking and involves bottles of Smirnoff Ice.... what is the actual game? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.100.76.24 (talk) 14:25, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Name change

The proper name of this game is Bros Icing Bros. Icing is the act of giving someone the smirnoff. Please change the name to its proper name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.98.92.32 (talk) 17:43, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Additional citations

The current revision of the article seems sourced enough for {{ref improve}} to be removed (and it has been), yet more citations are needed, specifically for:

• What specifically is doubted ("There has been some doubt...")
• Smirnoff's denial of the game being a marketing stunt
• The full quotation attributed to Dick martin ("Beyond the implicit slur on the beverage's taste, I doubt any alcoholic beverage company would want to be associated with a drinking game that stretches the boundaries of good taste and common sense like this one does")

Also the phrase "organic phenomenon" should be explained. —danhash (talk) 22:26, 17 January 2012 (UTC)

Every aspect of the text is in the source from the Times, as added in the article. Alansohn (talk) 00:01, 18 January 2012 (UTC)
