Not tagged. It should be considered alongside electroshock weapon above. Deletion is not the aim, so I'm voting keep. DonnanZ (talk) 20:58, 9 March 2018 (UTC)- But I can always reverse this decision, and tag it. DonnanZ (talk) 16:37, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. DTLHS (talk) 16:47, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Nicole Sharp (talk) 13:33, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep, one reason to do so is the lemming heuristic.
←₰-→Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 11:54, 17 March 2018 (UTC) - Keep using the lemming heuristic. “electroshock therapy”, in OneLook Dictionary Search. includes M-W and other dictionaries worth following. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:19, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Nominated under the mistaken belief that this is the same as electroshock weapon. The electroshock part of this isn't what makes it idiomatic: as Equinox pointed out under that entry, the fact that this is restricted to an electric shock applied to the brain in a certain way for certain reasons is what makes this not SOP.

- No, not a mistaken belief, I nominated it because the term electroshock is used. My intention was for users to compare the two. No deletion intended, I did vote "keep" at the outset. DonnanZ (talk) 11:38, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
- RFD passed. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:41, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
