i have a proposal for you all. I would like to create a WikiProject Breakfast, a division of WikiProject Food and drink. This WikiProject would cover the following articles, as well as similar articles and categories (more coverage to come):
Again, there would be thousands of more articles included in this WikiProject. They could also be in both WikiProject Food and drink and WikiProject Breakfast. WikiProject Breakfast would be a division of WikiProject Food and drink. I think that this addition is highly necessary.
How would I go about creating this, and do you know where the basic template is located (eg., link to it)? Feel free to voice your opinion, and comments below. Coolboygcp ( talk) 22:23, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi guys! This is one of three places I'm asking for help on an article for a Chinese snack called the Airplane olive. It's sort of hard finding coverage in reliable sources, as there really isn't a completely official name in English. Does anyone here speak Chinese that could look for coverage in Chinese language sources? I've done a search with Google translate, but that's incredibly limiting as far as what I can find and how far I can search. What little I can find does seem to show that it's popular, but I know that we would still need RS to back this claim up. I've asked for help at the Hong Kong and China WPs, but I wanted to ask here as well in order to get as many sets of eyes on the page as I can. I just want to make sure that I give it a fair shake before putting it up for AfD or a PROD. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 06:18, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
Hello!
I spent a great portion of my day yesterday skimming medical journals for things related to skin and
olive oil (
talk). I wrote up a neutral, science-based post and attempted to insert my work there, but a heavy deletionist came through and removed a large portion of it, abusing WP:SPAM and WP:MEDRS to justify deletion. (S)he is arguably in violation of WP:OWN and WP:WORLDVIEW, as this user attempts to impose FDA-level standards on Wikipedia. I would appreciate a third party's opinion. The content I attempted to add can be found

22:19, 8 April 2013 (UTC) This discussion may be of particular interest to the currently forming "Breakfast" task force
I am fascinated with the possible creation of a Chocolate Task Force. I have no clue how to start it, but if someone creates a template, based on the Cheese Task Force, I would be happy to populate the task force and work on it in other ways. there are up to 867 articles (some are doubly categorized, but there must be at least 500 related pages), so its manageable and well defined. anyone else interested? Mercurywoodrose ( talk) 03:48, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
on the main page, it shows the category trees for Category:Foods, and the tree for Category:Beverages. Doesnt that leave out the broader tree starting at Category:Food and drink, or even Category:Gastronomy? Don't those articles fall under this project as well? or is this more narrowly defined than i realize? Mercurywoodrose ( talk) 06:50, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
A number of standalone lists using Template:Lists of prepared foods have a column for the origin of each food. Generally speaking, the information in these columns is all over the place. Most list a country. Some list several. Others list a city or a specific culinary tradition. What can we do to standardize this and make it more useful for readers? Here are a few different ideas:
Another question is link style. Using option 1 wouldn't be very pretty, but could be improved upon with a piped link, such as [[Chinese cuisine|China]]. Thoughts? Ibadibam ( talk) 18:34, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

I work in a university library that has a very good food and drink related collection, and I'd be glad to help project members find sources. There's a few other good libraries like this around, but the vast majority of sources are not online.

I noticed that some articles on commercial food brands include a list of the ingredients. (For example, OK Cola) Is this encouraged or are they unencyclopedic indiscriminate lists?-- Brainy J ~✿~ ( talk) 15:53, 26 June 2013 (UTC)
I have started an article on this subject. I have also requested an admin move the list article that was there but that was deleted be moved to my userspace so I can see what was there. Any assistance would be most welcome. Candleabracadabra ( talk) 20:23, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
