GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Frog cake/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hello, I will be reviewing this article for Good Article candidacy. Those things look so tasty! Check back soon for a review. I wonder if GA reviewers should make a rule that we must try the tasty treats as extra incentive for reviewing them... ;) CarpetCrawler (talk) 01:12, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It would be a good rule. In which case I'll volunteer to review Deep-fried mars bar. :) - Bilby (talk) 01:21, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ahhhh, if only I could do the same thing without putting on a ton of pounds! :)

This article very easily passes the GA criteria. Although it is short, I understand that a ton of information will more than likely not be found on the subject, especially since it's only a food subject. I only ask for you to do one thing before this can pass.

"On the minus side, the success of the frog cake has led to imitations, so in 2001 Balfours registered both the name and the shape of the product as a trademark." - "On the minus side" is too POV-ish, I recommend that you correct that sentence. It really won't even take too long, and this article is on hold until this HUGE GIGANTIC ENORMOUS edit is done. ;) Send me a message on my talkpage when you finish! CarpetCrawler (talk) 00:51, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. It took a lot of work, but extensive research to fix the wording was the key. :) btw, I was wondering about the size too, so I checked some of the other food articles - in this case I figured that there wasn't really anything left to say. - Bilby (talk)

OK, the article can pass now... except you must give me 1,000 of those tasty looki... I mean, nevermind. The article has passed, great job! :) CarpetCrawler (talk) 01:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Frog cake actually from Denmark?

In this page, it said that it originated from Australia by France. But there is also an alternative to the frog cake known in Denmark as "Kajkage". "Kaj", the frog used in kajkage, has been a meme in Denmark (when you look at Dankmark subreddit you'll see). Most Danish sites claimed that the Cage was a Danish tradition in some recipe sites.

It appears that it has come to the attention of Danish users on the /r/Denmark Reddit forum that this article exists. Unfortunately this is unironically a topic of surprising amounts of national interest to Danes. While acknowledging the fact that the cake seemingly originated in Australia in the 1920s, I propose we add more content referring to the Danish counterpart. Can any Australians tell me more about how common this is in Australia? It's extremely ubiquitous in Denmark and I have to be honest and say I never heard about it outside of Denmark before now. —VladVP (talk) 21:38, 18 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The article already mentions the Frøkage and Kajkage, although both seem to have originated much later. Might be worth creating an article on Frøkage/Kajkage, though, if there is a decent amount of content. That would be neat. :) - Bilby (talk) 05:40, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

defective link

Hey!

I noticed the link to the article about Goers doesn't work. Or well, the article is not hosted there anymore. Wanted to let someone know, so it can be removed or linked to a working source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Echodonut (talk • contribs) 01:53, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
