Should the current page be moved to "Freezer (disambiguation)" once you've completed your rewrite? 18:47, 13 June 2012
- Nope. --
- Why not?
- Because it isn't a disambiguation? --
- It isn't?
- Well not really. It just links to two pages that are only tangentially related to a freezer in the English language, anyway. It could easily be covered in a See Also. --
- Well, it's not like Wikipedia gave me a lot to parody, though I could add a few entries if you'd like. I'd prefer to think that the (quasi-?)disambiguation page I've written is funnier and more informative than two red links (or blue links to the articles on the franchises, which contain hardly any information on the subjects themselves), however. 14:04, 20 June 2012
- Or I mean you can always just write a page on Articuno or Frieza instead of parodying a disambiguation page, which, again, seems completely unnecessary now that there'll be an actual article on the topic. --
- Yeah... except Articuno and Frieza aren't exactly topics you can write a whole bunch of funny stuff about, so the probability of them ever having a decent article is pretty close to zero. So I don't see what's the harm in mentioning some sorta-funny stuff about them on a disambiguation page, or why a disambiguation page for the term "Freezer" shouldn't be allowed to exist.
- Hey, great articles about small topics are made all the time, don't be discouraged. Just thinking that a disambiguation is a redundant easy way out. -- 19:57, June 20, 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not saying that it's completely impossible that someone will write a good article about one of these topics eventually, but I don't see how treating these subjects in a disambiguation page while they don't have articles yet is bad. It's not like someone will stumble upon a disambiguation page that says a bit about the disambiguated topics and think "Holy crap, someone already wrote a sentence about this topic on this wiki, so now there's no point in me writing an article about it." 20:06, 20 June 2012

I just saw the OutKast reference, and I lost it. I don't know why that made me so happy. The Woodburninator Minimal Effort ™ 18:23, July 16, 2012 (UTC)
Pee Review Results[edit source]
Humour: | 10 | This is just great! You keep a fairly serious tone throughout the article while incorporating just the right amount of nonsense (e.g. the questions asked in the types of freezers section having relatively serious answers) |
Concept: | 10 | A very standard |
Prose and formatting: | 10 | I could find nothing wrong with either the formatting or the grammar- you get a gold star good sir. |
Images: | 10 | Just the right number for the length and material covered. They comply with the trend of seriousness with slightly nonsensical captions. I appreciated the joke about Google's search engine though- very true. |
Miscellaneous: | 10 | Basically just an average... nothing to cream yourself over. BTW I would add criticism if I could find something worth criticizing. |
Final Score: | 50 | Fantastic article! If I remember to do so I'll meander over to VFH and vote for it. |
