Article name

Why in the world is the (item) used here? The page already includes hatnotes to the rapper and to a disamb page. "Item" is redundant and silly, particularly because plain ice cube redirects here. I will change this shortly unless someone objects. Jgm (talk) 00:09, 26 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Messing with Article

Clearly someone has been messing with the article. Right now it reads: "Ice coobs are frozen cube shaped food, they taste good in penibutter and jelli sandwickes". Now as much as I love "ice coobs" in "penibutter" and "jelli sandwickes", someone should fix this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.182.146.25 (talk) 23:02, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't there be a section on freezies?

They're pretty popular Lhw1 (talk) 09:25, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Modifications

Though recorded in the history, figured I should probably mention it here as well. I removed the Gorrie entry under ice cube tray and made his own section. Gorrie never invented an ice cube tray. Also, I added an image of his old-school freezer. Moreover I fixed "some" of the grammar on the page. Though, the text should be proofread and rewritten so that it does not reflect the horrific state of our North American educational systems!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soldier.pitre (talk • contribs) 18:30, 6 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fecal matter & E. Coli claim unsourced

"Recent demand for premium, safe drink ice has created a new niche market for disposable ice trays which can be cost- effectively transported or stored at room temperature, whilst protecting the consumer from contaminants such as fecal matter, E. Coli or fertilizer residue commonly found in mis-handled ice cube trays and un-safe water supplies." This is not supported in the article cited.Nard111 (talk) 13:39, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto. It's clearly advertising, not NPOV and unsupported so I'm going to edit it. Tomcrocker (talk) 13:53, 22 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

plural

can the title of this article at least be changed to Ice Cubes to prevent confusion with the rapper? —Preceding unsigned comment added by KingLouse (talk • contribs) 09:08, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Picture of fake ice cubes

I reorganised the page to a more logical structure, and in the process noticed that this image is a photo of fake ice cubes, which is not a topic covered anywhere in the article except in the caption for this photo. Can we remove the image? ~ Kimelea (talk) 18:37, 28 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I take that as a yes. :) ~ Kimelea (talk) 16:14, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do ice cubes preceed refrigeration ?

Since natural ice harvested from a lake must have some debris in it, it would be interesting to know if people had devices use natural ice to freeze purer water for putting directly in drinks.

Tashiro (talk) 04:54, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Seems unlikely. (Making ice cubes in an ice box would melt a lot of the ice you'd be using to cool the drinks.) In any case, feel free to look for sources. - SummerPhD (talk) 13:19, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

-==Ice Cube (rapper)==
-Just wondering, but isn't it clear that at least 95% of the people that type in "ice cube" are going to be looking for the rapper instead. So why is this the primary page that it directs to. I know that if you type it as "Ice Cube" it comes up but most people type "ice cube" and I know there's a link on top but come on...... Couldn't this page be moved to "Ice cubes" instead or something. [[User:Dillon90|Dillon90]] ([[User talk:Dillon90|talk]]) 21:58, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
