Mallow with lamb (which is also Lebanese) and Fennel with lamb. Dougweller ( talk) 16:50, 3 January 2014 (UTC)
Many of these publications are linked in relevant articles, but many aren't; it seems like lots of them could be useful as further reading for basic food subjects. [1] -- phoebe / ( talk to me) 20:21, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
Hello!
I'd like to ask project experts to take a look at the recently created Pogacha article, which is in fact a combination of well-established articles of Pogácsa and Pogača, under a new title. I personally think merging of the two articles was not only an arbitrary move (there was no merge talks or something), but also a completely wrong one, since the dishes in the article – although there are a lot of similarities – are not the same. This is why they all had separate articles. The title of the new article is questionable as well, since I got no more than 40,000 Google hits on "pogacha", while over 400,000 on "pogača" and over 1.5 million on "pogácsa". Same goes for Gbooks hits. I was about to revert this copy-paste action and restore the "pogácsa" and "pogača" articles, however, this would leave the new "pogacha" article total empty. In this case, "pogacha" probably could be redirected to "pogácsa"? Any idea? Thehoboclown ( talk) 12:07, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi, is adding the [[Category:Northern Irish cheeses]] category to Fivemiletown Creamery a bad thing and a no-no? Opinions appreciated. -- HighKing ++ 12:44, 18 January 2014 (UTC)
In early December Carr76 created articles Fry Jacks and Fry jack about a dish in Belizian cuisine. The two articles are duplicates but not identical. They were both created as a copy/paste from content now at user:Carr76/sandbox 2 but have been edited independently since. I've put merge tags on them but I thought I'd give you a heads up. Thryduulf ( talk) 22:51, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
Input sought on this relatively new article. Existing articles are frito pie and tostilocos. A possible merge is proposed on the talk page. Input welcome. Candleabracadabra ( talk) 23:04, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
Hi! I was wondering if anyone would be interested in collaborating for an article of Honest Kids, which is a juice brand. Thanks, Bananasoldier ( talk) 03:31, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi all, I am excited to be taking a class at my university dedicated to editing and learning the ins and outs of Wikipedia. We were assigned to choose and contribute to a WikiProject, and I chose this one! Hopefully I'll be able to contribute while following all of the Wikipedia guidelines, but guidance is extremely WELCOME! I will review the "Open Tasks" and "Article To Do Lists," but if there's anything in particular you all suggest I start on first, let me know! Bailey614 ( talk) 03:50, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
User:Bailey614, I don't know what your particular area of interest is, but Guinea-Bissauan cuisine is a red-link, there are several dishes in the Yemeni cuisine article that are redlinks, pepperpot soup (a AmerIndian/ Jamaican cuisine dish) is a redlink, and the Bengali cuisine dish Chachchari is a redlink. Good luck. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. Candleabracadabra ( talk) 17:37, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

I have recommended we move this topic to seafood restaurant as teh list is unworkable and we don't have an article as yet on the basic topic (so starting from the ground up....) Cas Liber ( talk · contribs) 00:29, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

There is constant on going vandalism happening. It started when twitch.tv streamer did a bad joke regarding the subject and now his viewers and flooding the article.
Considering the reputation of the streamer and hes fans, the article will be under constant bombardment for days.

I am just putting this up here since reverting will be useless until the joke dies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gehe fin ( talk • contribs) 00:11, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
I've finally gotten a copy of Richardson's Sweets: A History of Candy ( ISBN 1-58234-229-6). It's great source about candy/sweets/stuff that's bad for your teeth, and I'd like to talk to interested people (you) about how to organize the related articles. Here's the deal:
So at the moment, we have:
Candy making is a redlink. Candyman is a WP:DAB page that doesn't link to anything about the career of making or selling candy; candy maker is a redirect to Confectionery, which doesn't mention it. Confectionery store is a stub that claims to be about sellers of candy (category #2) rather than confections in general (#1), and should probably be moved to either sweet shop or candy store (both redirect there), or re-written to include bakeries.
So what I'm proposing is this:
I'm in no rush, but I realize that this is a lot of changes to a bunch of articles, so I wanted to get your views before I did anything.
By the way, if you're interested in globalizing Wikipedia, Richardson's book has a long chapter at the end about sweets in different regions, including relative popularity, favorite flavors and products, and more. It would make for an excellent paragraph in dozens of our "cuisine of ____" articles. The limited preview at Google Books or at Amazon.com is probably enough for anyone who only wants information on one country/region and doesn't want to buy the book. WhatamIdoing ( talk) 23:17, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
Howdy. I've just created an article for chef Michael Psilakis but I'm struggling to find industry sources that might help to establish (independently) when he opened and closed certain restaurants. There's info in his various self-published bios but I'd prefer to use 3rd party sources if possible. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be grateful. I'm also planning on creating an article for NZ chef Kayne Raymond so anyone who wants to help out with that too... Stalwart 111 00:17, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
Dear food experts: Here's an abandoned Afc submission that appears to have quite a few references. Is this a notable topic, and should the article be kept and improved, or deleted as a stale draft? — Anne Delong ( talk) 22:27, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
Really not very good. The 'Types' section starts "There are many names for bread rolls, especially in local dialects of British English." I really don't think we want a list of names of rolls in this article. The lead doesn't even suggest Americans might eat rolls. Dougweller ( talk) 15:50, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
I couldn't find anything about Wikipedia:Notability (food), nor any policy about recipes (please direct me to such if I missed them). The question I have concerns this: is the existence of several recipes enough to confer notability on a given subject? I thought recipes were not seen as reliable sources, so they couldn't be used to argue for GNG "coverage"? As in, is the argument "there are many recipes for X on the Internet hence the subject is notable" valid or not? -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:23, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
I know we have quite a few recipes like the cumin chicken example, at least I think they are. Eg Fennel with lamb and Blessed thistle with lamb and [[Walnut stuffed figs] - these all by the same editor, but I'm sure there are more. Dougweller ( talk) 15:02, 31 March 2014 (UTC)
