Every time I read the article on Pasty it disapoints me. Its basically a train wreck of an article which mashes together in a Wikipedia Dunce-shaped crust two articles: one about the PGI protected Cornish Pasty; and then another about a pastry wrapped savoury product which might contain meat and might not, might originate from Cornwall or not, and has different forms wherever it has been adapted in the world. When we have a separate article (rightly) for the lesser known Scottish equivalent the Bridie; and decent articles with great regional flavourings for the Empanada or the Mexican Paste. Why do we try to continue to mash two things together, and get a lesser piece. Thoughts? Rgds, --Trident13 (talk) 02:05, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
So, are you saying that because of the PGI protection, that merchants all over the world can no longer call the thing they've been selling as Cornish Pasties (Pasty, singular) for the past, oh, 120 years or more, Cornish Pasties??? This whole argument seems like a non-starter to me. No matter what the PGI may say, that term, Cornish Pasty, has been used all over the world, for centuries (at least two) to describe a particular kind of hand-held pie. Any references to empanadas, Scottish products, etc. should be left to the See Also section of the article. They are different and have, or should have, their own articles. This isn't really the appropriate forum for wrangling over "territorial" disputes. Yes, mention the designation, tell what that means in the UK/EU, but don't act as though some tea shop in Hoboken, selling Cornish Pasties, is trying to do Cornwall out of its props.

Hi Wikiproject, the articles about Scottish malt whisky and related subjects are in pretty bad shape. I've begun creating some new articles on distilleries here and there, but I wouldn't mind a more organised effort. Would this Wikiproject be the right place? If not, could you direct me somewhere that is? If it is, would anyone be interested in starting up a taskforce? I'm looking to work on Scottish malt whisky distilleries in particular, but other issues and subjects around the production process and the malt whiksy 'scene' by lack of a better word (i.e. Keepers of the Quaich, Customs and Excise Act 1823, etc). There is a lot of content creation to be done, but also some streamlining work around article names, possibly some moves here and there, and probably some backlinking too. I never started a taskforce before, so any help would be welcome. Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 13:14, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

I just linked to the Percentage page from the Sourdough page. The How to banner at the top of Percentage struck me, particularly the phrasing, "The purpose of Wikipedia is to present facts, not to train", with the emphasis, "present facts, not ... train". The implication that training is not presenting facts seems odd. If one doesn't have facts, then one has non-facts. Non-facts might include beliefs. It just struck me as unusual any training would consist of Belief. The only connection to Food and drink project was the link from Sourdough, and I don't have available time to debate, although if anyone has any clarity on the above implication, which I distill to training = belief ?, your thoughts would be appreciated. Gzuufy (talk) 21:12, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
Providing facts is not incompatible with providing useful information. For example, in the article on clotted cream, the way it is made is described. Those are facts, but if someone is able to use them to make their own clotted cream, does that mean we should remove those facts? No. Wikipedia may be here to provide facts, but providing facts does not mean providing only unusable information. If someone can learn to do something based on a Wikipedia article, that doesn't negate it's original purpose. No, you don't want to teach someone to how to crochet or how to play the market, but let's not draw that line to restrictively, please. Zlama (talk) 02:28, 4 February 2012 (UTC)

Hello wikiproject members! Since I have no experience with notability guidelines on this topic, I wanted to ask the community whether it's worth working on an article for The Pop Shop in Collingswood, New Jersey. The restaurant was featured on Throwdown! with Bobby Flay and received a reasonable amount of coverage in local newspapers, magazines, etc. I was wondering what the standards for notability are on a restaurant like this — they seem to be somewhat well covered in the local area (won some small awards, etc.) but their primary appearance in national media (which I assume is where notability comes from) is singular and only attributable to one episode. Thanks for your help everyone! --Pusillanimous (talk•contribs) 17:51, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

There are two separate (recently created) articles, List of Michelin three starred restaurants and List of Michelin two starred restaurants, which appear to be content splits from List of Michelin starred restaurants (without attribution). If that is the case and there is perceived to be a need for three separate articles listing these restaurants, I suggest that the split is properly attributed. If not, I suggest that the two sub-pages are redirected back to List of Michelin starred restaurants.--CharlieDelta (talk) 04:26, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Hello! I would like to expand the almond article, maybe attempt to get it to good article status eventually. My school background is in biology and crop science, so I feel like it would be a good article for me to work on. Trouble is that I don't have any idea how to write the section on culinary uses, which are undoubtedly going to be the most important sections for many, if not most, readers. I wouldn't want to short-change the section, so if there are any interested collaborators in this wikiproject, let me know! I don't have any experience with writing for a good article nomination, so help with that would be appreciated also.
This is what I'm thinking the general structure of the article should look like, but I am very open to suggestions. For example, it may be better to place uses ahead of production. I'm also unsure if it would be good to break up the uses section regionally, the way it is done in the article currently.
I know it's just one of thousands of stubs that need better referencing and overall coverage, but something about the fact that foam (culinary) is so poor makes me sad. ;) It's recently popular phenomenon, so sources in the New York Times or such should be easy to find. I took a first pass on it by adding a photo and doing some basic style work. Cheers, Steven Walling • talk 04:19, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

The article World's Finest Chocolate has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated))
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated))
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 19:57, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

I've been doing some cleanup at Category:Ainu, a cat for the Ainu people who populated Northern Japan and Russian Sakhalin before being largely wiped out and assimilated by colonialism. They're a culture roughly parallel to what Native Americans would be to the USA.
There were two articles on their food, so I created a small Category:Ainu cuisine to hold those, but it could use some populating. If anyone is interested in the foods of indigenous cultures, the Pacific Rim, or just up for an interesting challenge it'd be great to get some more data into this cat. There are some redlinks at Ainu cuisine, and most of the bluelinks are just self-redirects. While "Ainu cuisine" gets few/no useful gBooks hits, "Ainu food" and "Ainu dish" have some useful refs.
Thanks for any help on building up Wiki's coverage of this endangered indigenous culture. MatthewVanitas (talk) 14:30, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

Due to contentious editing at Template:American cuisine, this has resulted in the deletion of the image at many ethnic cuisine sidebar templates. You may wish to discuss whether to keep these images or not, and someone should watch the templates to see if further contentious editing at American cuisine results in spillover to all the other cuisine templates. 70.24.251.208 (talk) 11:46, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

I wasn't able to find a notability guideline on food articles so I thought this would be the place to ask. These 2 pancake articles were recently made: Beghrir and Msemen. The former has no sources and the latter only has cookbooks as sources. From searching online the only sources found (other than blogs) mainly just give the recipe. If there are a lot of sources that just say how to make the food, is that enough for notability, or does there need to be sources that talk about some sort of significance of the food that would make it notable?

I chanced upon an article about a musical instrument (Calabrian lira) and noticed that there was no "Foo culture" category for the Calabria province of southeast Italy. I made the cat, and saw in cat "Calabria" one or two foods. So I made "Calabrian cuisine", ran a quick search, and found nearly a dozen Calabrian dishes that were clearly labeled as such, but in general "Italian cuisine" categories. I've accordingly filed them under the new "Calabrian cuisine" category. If there are any I missed, of you have any favourite Calabrian dishes without an article (or photos for ones missing a pic) now's a good time to add them in. Might be a good idea to check around later and see what regional Italian cuisines don't yet have their own category... MatthewVanitas (talk) 21:46, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
