Untitled

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

Danger! 50,000 Volts!

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

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]

corporate kangaroo training

"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?

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]

Request for Disambiguation of this page?

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.

Nick Frost → Nick Frost (actor) – As per Wikipedia:Moving a page#Reasons for moving a page, I propose to move this page to Nick Frost (actor), or to some other alternative that includes a parenthetical qualifier to accommodate current and future Wikipedia pages for noted individuals with the common name Nick Frost. Nick Frost should then serve as a #redirect to Nick Frost (disambiguation). Thanks. -DM Doug Mehus (talk) 00:37, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Strongly support As the Wikipedia page moving proponent, I offer strong support for the above-noted rationale. Doug Mehus (talk) 00:40, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
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. – Thjarkur (talk) 01:31, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
- 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. Doug Mehus (talk) 01:36, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose per Doug Mehus. 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. —BarrelProof (talk) 01:39, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, per above, no other article about a Nick Frost. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:08, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose. This can be revisited when there is more than one Nick Frost with an article. Egsan Bacon (talk) 03:11, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
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.
