Hello fellow Wikipedians,


== Request for Disambiguation of this page? ==
I have just modified {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on [[Nick Frost]]. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=749070917 my edit]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information. I made the following changes:
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20111109042819/http://www.thisislondon.co.uk:80/lifestyle/article-23836145-nick-frost-being-funny-is-like-a-six-pack-for-a-fat-man.do to http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/lifestyle/article-23836145-nick-frost-being-funny-is-like-a-six-pack-for-a-fat-man.do


Hi Everyone,
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the ''checked'' parameter below to '''true''' or '''failed''' to let others know (documentation at {{tlx|Sourcecheck}}).


The radio station Wikipedia page [[CKOO-FM]] references its owner, '''Nick Frost''', by way of a link to a Wikipedia page, or future Wikipedia page, in his name. Since one doesn't exist, it links here. Since this Nick Frost is not well known, or even if we was, I am requesting a disambiguation page be created (can I create this on my own?), which would then reference this "Nick Frost" as "Nick Frost (comedian)".
{{sourcecheck|checked=false}}


Thanks.
Cheers.—[[User:InternetArchiveBot|'''<span style="color:darkgrey;font-family:monospace">InternetArchiveBot</span>''']] <span style="color:green;font-family:Rockwell">([[User talk:InternetArchiveBot|Report bug]])</span> 05:47, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

* '''Strongly support''' As the ''Wikipedia'' [[Wikipedia:Page mover|page moving proponent]], I offer ''strong support'' for the above-noted rationale. [[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 00:40, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
* '''Oppose''' and speedy close, there's no other article here about a "Nick Frost". Even if J. Nicholas Frost owner of the soft ballad radio station [[CKOO-FM]] (mentioned above) had a page, this famous actor would be the [[WP:PRIMARYTOPIC]]. – '''[[User:Þjarkur|Thjarkur]]''' [[User talk:Þjarkur|(talk)]] 01:31, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
** '''Reply''' Even still, why would this actor be the [[WP:PRIMARYTOPIC]]? Lots of other pages have ''disambiguation'' pages, for which I would have no issues with ''Nick Frost (actor)'' being listed ''first''. Oppose your petition for speedy close. [[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 01:36, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
* '''Oppose''' per <s>[[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]]</s> [[User:Þjarkur|Thjarkur]]. Aside from a passing mention of someone with a similar name in the [[CKOO-FM]] article, I don't see a serious ambiguity here. If a problem arises in the future, we can address it then. —[[User:BarrelProof|BarrelProof]] ([[User talk:BarrelProof|talk]]) 01:39, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
**Name of other editor corrected above. It seems I was confused about who said what. —[[User:BarrelProof|BarrelProof]] ([[User talk:BarrelProof|talk]]) 00:21, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''', per above, no other article about a Nick Frost. [[User:Randy Kryn|Randy Kryn]] ([[User talk:Randy Kryn|talk]]) 03:08, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. This can be revisited when there is more than one Nick Frost with an article. [[User:Egsan Bacon|Egsan Bacon]] ([[User talk:Egsan Bacon|talk]]) 03:11, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
*'''Oppose'''. Although [[WP:NEVERHEARDOFIT]] is a guideline for deletion discussions, it pretty obviously applies here. The nominator seems to think this page is worth moving because they've never heard of this Nick Frost, which isn't a valid reason for a move. Even if Nick Frost (radio owner) or similar became an article, there's almost no chance it stacks up to this article's average of 60k views a month. [[User:Nohomersryan|Nohomersryan]] ([[User talk:Nohomersryan|talk]]) 18:23, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
** '''Reply''' For clarity, now that I've looked into ''Nick Frost'' (of Britain) via ''IMDb'', I didn't realize this was the actor that played the British constable from the indie comedy film ''Hot Fuzz'' (love that movie). Nevertheless, I don't see why it wouldn't be preferable to be proactive and have a disambiguation article that links, initially, to ''Nick Frost (actor)'' and to ''Nick Frost (radio station owner)'' or ''Nick Frost (businessman)'', as and when that article is written? [[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 18:31, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' per others. The actor is a clear primary topic and really there isn't anything else to disambiguate with. Ambiguity with [[Nick Ffrost]] is already covered by the hatnote and this J. Nicholas Frost chap doesn't seem particuarly notable. [[User:PC78|PC78]] ([[User talk:PC78|talk]]) 23:27, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
**J. Nicholas Frost is worthy of his own article, I think, as he did own [[CILK-FM]], [[CHSU-FM]], [[CKFR]], and, more recently, [[CKOO-FM]] and '''Castanet.net''' (which, surprisingly, doesn't have a Wikipedia article) until their sale to [[Glacier Media]]. He definitely goes by ''Nick Frost''. If I had more time or research interest, I'd write a biography article and re-propose disambiguation.

[edit]

Wan't the channel five show in fact called "Danger! Incoming attack!" and not "Danger! 50,000 volts!". I used to watch it, it was hilarious

I have started the article for Danger! 50,000 Volts! using mainly the text from the paragraph about it in this article. I haven't seen the programme yet, so I can't add any more information about it at the moment. George C 10:39, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed a lot of information about the programme as it is now contained in it's own article which I will probably add more to when I have actually seen the programme. George C 12:15, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cornettos

[edit]

I removed the paragraph about the Cornettos as it has nothing to do with Frost's career. George C 16:53, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"He worked as a waiter and appeared in corporate kangaroo training videos..." What exactly is a corporate kangaroo training video? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.107.50.238 (talk) 09:24, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Name of his ex-wife?

[edit]

This[1] states that his ex wife is called "Mariangela" but all other sources say "Christina" as is named in the article. Where does "Mariangela" come from? Chaheel Riens (talk) 17:23, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Everyone,

The radio station Wikipedia page CKOO-FM references its owner, Nick Frost, by way of a link to a Wikipedia page, or future Wikipedia page, in his name. Since one doesn't exist, it links here. Since this Nick Frost is not well known, or even if we was, I am requesting a disambiguation page be created (can I create this on my own?), which would then reference this "Nick Frost" as "Nick Frost (comedian)".

Thanks.
