•  Comment Not smiling. Incorrect file name and category. Charlesjsharp (talk) 19:17, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

  @Charlesjsharp: IMO "smiling" has multiple meanings: 1) contorting one's mouth in a way that gently slopes up on the sides; 2) contorting one's mouth in order to express happiness. I don't know as much about biology as you, so I cannot evaluate the veracity of 2), but 1) clearly looks correct to me. After all, who are you to say that a whale is not a fish? -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 21:00, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

  Oh? Come on. It's not April 1, is it? Charlesjsharp (talk) 21:12, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

  I'm exaggerating a bit: taxonomic classification is not the perfect analogy, as that is an area where we have decided to go with the strict scientific definition. However, a "smile" does not have a formal, consistently applied scientific definition and should be understood as a subjective descriptor of the appearance of a facial expression. -- King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:31, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
