Talk:Frank Zamboni

Fair use rationale for Image:Frank J Zamboni promo photo.jpg
Image:Frank J Zamboni promo photo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Prescriptivist nonsense
"Though the term Zamboni was (and remains) trademarked by his company, the name is sometimes improperly used for any brand of ice resurfacing machine." -- This should be rephrased, first and foremost by changing "improperly" to "generically". It's no crime when a language is just developing as they've always been. 37.190.159.220 (talk) 15:49, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Google Doodle
Is this really encyclopedic content to mention that a company made a very tiny game that was displayed on their website for 1 single day in honor of his birthday? nezZario (talk) 22:12, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Answering my own question - It seems to be the census between other Google Doodle attributed people that it is, under a "In Popular Culture" section, which I added above the text, and also added "See Other" links to Zamboni Company & Ice resurfacer nezZario (talk) 18:40, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Notification of requested move at Zamboni
The requested move proposes renaming Zamboni (a disambiguation page) to Zamboni (disambiguation) in order for "Zamboni" to redirect to ice resurfacer. Wracking 💬 04:07, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
