• Merge/redirect with breaking the Ice. Kappa 22:47, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Actually, Kappa, I'd say breaking the Ice ought to be deleted too. It's also a dicdef. And no-one comes on an encyclopedia looking for those. Master Thief Garrett 22:53, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
• True story - when I was a peer advisor in my university, we were taught a variety of "ice-breakers" - tried and true methods for getting groups of strangers warmed up to one another. Apparently these are a big hit on the corporate scene. There ought to be an article on that topic, and this ought to redirect to it. -- 8^D ^gab 01:46, 2005 Apr 23 (UTC)
• Isn't there a Parker Bros. game called "Break the Ice"? Redirect to that and make an article on the game. RickK 21:48, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)
• Never heard of the game, but icebreaker activitities are common at, say, scouting camps. See Icebreaker (disambiguation). I'd like this and Breaking the Ice merged with some samples of common icebreaker games. Radiant_* 10:33, Apr 25, 2005 (UTC)
• There was a Milton Bradley game called Don't Break the Ice. The facilitation activities (corporate, scouting, etc) are most commonly known as "icebreakers" - an article which we need but do not yet have. Unless someone has a better suggestion, I will create it at icebreaker (facilitation). Redirect this dicdef there. Breaking the Ice however has a history as a stub article about a specific peace project by that name and should probably stay separate for now. Rossami (talk) 00:17, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)
