Pardon edit

(I'm new to this Wiki stuff, so please pardon me if I do this incorrectly)

Thunderclaw edit

Regarding this article, I am positive that "Thunderclaw" is not Ze's only Power Move. I am sure that I had seen him perform another, more intricate Power Move with effects added to it. Unfortunatly I do not remember the name of this move, or what episode it appeared in. Just a note to the author, or some one out there who may want to check up on this and edit the article.

I wrote that based on his demonstration of Thunderclaw, and it seems like all the ones I've seen him do since then look like versions of Thunderclaw. He tends to refer to power moves in the singular when talking to about them: "What is your power move?" as opposed to "What is one of your power moves?" or "What are your power moves?". I can't claim to know for sure, it just seems like that's how he's presenting them. Maybe it's like skills in Xmen - almost everyone has exactly one skill due to mutation, but some people have more than one. Courtarro 20:37, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Earth Sandwich edit

The earth sandwich has been created - see [1] and [2] --Mnolf 20:53, 14 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

newsy stuff edit

the show with zefrank has been discussed in newsweek and maybe time. These links and possibly information from these articles should be somewhere on this page, just in case someone gets confused why their non-notable videoblog can't be on wikipedia just because notable videoblogs are. 66.41.66.213 19:05, 7 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Proposed Deletion edit

On December 7 User:Proto proposed this page for deletion, citing "non-notable blog article. No assertion of notability, and primarily a vehicle for many, many external links to the blog."

I've addressed the issue of notability by providing references to articles from the Times, Newsweek and The Guardian. If people want to add more references for notability there is a list at http://www.zefrank.com/thewiki/Ze_Frank/Press.

I can see how the current references can be construed as a sort of linkspamming, however I'm not familiar with how blog references are handled so I'll leave that to someone else. This article still needs a lot of work and some content could be copied or moved from the Ze Frank page. In any case I hope I have addressed the concerns regarding the proposed deletion as I've removed the tag.

Also, I took out the "and has a large number of viewers" from the intro since this is rather non-quantitative. I know some statistics on ze's site usage are out there, however I've only seen them published on his site so they are probably not appropriate for inclusion in the article.

Videos post-show edit

Although Ze has blogged a few videos recently (some several years old), I don't see any connection to the show. The referenced source refers to it as "the return of zefrank" and the addition below repeatedly states no connection. As such, I don't think this material belongs in this article:

  • On November 5, 2007, Ze Frank began posting similar videos, but without introducing them as part of "The Show with Ze Frank" to his blog[1] and account on his video host Blip.tv[2] as reported by Chris Albrecht at NewTeeVee[3]. A music video published on October 29, 2007 could be considered the first return of The show. However, these videos have not shown up on The Show wiki as of December 21, 2007. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cleanr (talkcontribs) 07:03, 28 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
