It's some kind of hoax, though I can't see why anyone would bother. Probably this is a sincere contribution, but it's either a duplicate of Gey-Gel State Reserve or something else under the wrong name. "Freezing" is not the Azeri word for blue (the translation of lake is correct, afaik) and there are no non-WP related google hits at all for "gey-freezing". It's also very short and unreferenced, so no great loss. Moyabrit (talk) 01:40, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. I'm not sure it's intended to be a hoax--the text seems to be describing Gey-Gel State Reserve--maybe just a translation error? Still can probably be deleted as an 'unlikely redir' to that article, and the lack of sources makes any merging seem unwise. Ravenna1961 (talk) 04:51, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- In that case, the reason for my !vote changes - since the reserve apparently does exist, this would make it seem more like a poorly-translated tourist blurb for it. Perhaps a redirect is in order? --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 17:46, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- I copyedited Gey-Gel State Reserve which does exist (and its article has reflinks), so I noticed the resemblence too. I don't think this article is malicious - so I'm changing the "hoax" sentence above - but it does have the wrong name for some reason, and there's so little context that it's hard to guess what the real subject is. If it's a real place, let someone recreate the article later. This one is too confused to be any use. Moyabrit (talk) 18:54, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
