Proposed: This article is obviously an attempt at humor, presumably by a fan of the show, Seinfeld. Very well done, I must add, but still a joke and should be removed. I leave it up to the first Admin that wanders by as to whether this is a candidate for Speedy Delete. --Bill W. Smith, Jr. 23:10, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

- keep. All indications are that this is real. Not only are there are few journal articles about it, but "seinfeld syncope" is the term used by doctors who first wrote about it. — brighterorange (talk) 16:00, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
- As another administrator wandering by, I don't think that it is speedily deletable. In fact, I think that to fix the problem with the article doesn't require any administrator tools at all, but simply a rename to laughter-induced syncope, and cleanup using sources like this, this, this, this, this, pages 71 to 73 of ISBN 1405151099, this, and others.

- Keep & Rename "Laughter-induced syncope" seems like an excellent name for this article, but I think "Seinfeld syncope" should be kept, with a referral to the other article. Mauralarkins 22:48, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
