[edit] Article Title

Why is this article named 'Frosted Flakes' when its only called that in one country when the rest of the world call them 'Frosties'? Shouldn't the title be the most common named used? "Frosties (or Frosted Flakes in America) etc."

  • Quick Google finds
Frosted Flakes : USA
Frosties (Germany)
Frosties (UK)
Frosties (France) 
Frosties (Italy)
Frosties (Spain)
Frosties (Portugal)
Zucaritas (Argentina and Mexico)
Sucrilhos (Brazil)

So it's not a USA vs Rest of the world but USA vs Europe vs Some others ... anyway Kellogs is an American company so the USA title should be first (but not only) Jaster 16:36, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Frosted Flakes v Frosties

I think the common rule in wikipedia is that the Country of Origin rule always applies. (Frosties is a rare example because of US trade mark laws, but most other products have a standardised international name (unless the word is offensive in that language)). English articles are written in British English and American articles are written in American English. Kelloggs is an American company and must be treated as such, Frosted Sugar Flakes were first launched there. Mike33 01:51, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cocoa Frosted Flakes

I remember them being available for a limited time in America from the early 1990s. Is this true? --Imax80 19:03, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] My revert

Complete accident - I was using Lupin's vandalism tool, which must have rolled-back a rollback. There is still vandalism present on the page. --Birdman1 talk/contribs 22:13, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
