Talk:Spud (disambiguation)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Cleanup
This disambiguation page was marked for cleanup per MoS:DAB. I removed the following entries because I could not establish their notability or encyclopedic-ness (e.g. because the term "Spud" was not mentioned in the linked-to article):
- Spuds is a nickname for King Edward VI School in Southampton, a jovial recognition by rival independent schools of the similar name that the school has to the King Edward potato.
- Spud is a nickname given by supporters of Arsenal F.C. to the supporters of their rivals Tottenham Hotspur F.C.
- Spud is also a name for a fan of the band Devo who were popular in the early 1980s with their hit song, "Whip It." The term can be heard in their song, "Smart Patrol/ Mr. DNA." They refer to themselves as "Spudboy[s]."
I replaced the following entries with a link to wikt:spud (where they are mentioned) because Wikipedia is not a dictionary:
- Spud is an Oil & Gas Industry term for first break/drill of the surface before a Well is introduced, in much the same way as with the planting of the potato.
- Spud is a nickname for a pole that has a flat blade on one end and is used to cut holes in lake ice, usually for fishing purposes.
