ItalicsEdit

Could someone (more than someone) help me italicise all the words, of foodstuffs, that are not common in the English language? Example: "Vermicelli" (I've definitely made mistakes within these pages; I'll double-check when we've fixed the problem I pointed out; in any case, if you find mistakes I've made, feel free to correct them).

British chefs like Nigella Lawson and American chefs like Martha Stewart do not italicize capellini. The New York Times does not italicize capellini. Major pasta manufacturers do not italicize capellini in their English language content. The Food Network does not italicize capellini. Why on earth should Wikipedia?

Last I heard, vermicelli was not italicised and also quite common. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 22:01, 25 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Junior Bake Off (series 7) nominated for deletionEdit

I started the deletion discussion on Junior Bake Off (series 7). Your inputs there are welcome. George Ho (talk) 17:41, 9 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Cactus CoolerEdit

Could some one from this WikiProject take a look at Cactus Cooler? Someone recently tried to expand it but much of the new content wasn't very well cited (mainly to a blog site and social media) and there were also some health related claims being made. I tried to clean things up a bit and keep the stuff that seemed reliably sourced, but I typically don't work on articles like this. Perhaps someone who's more experienced with this genre of article could also take a look and figure out if any further clean up is needed. -- Marchjuly (talk) 11:37, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Conagra Brands requestEdit

Hi editors, I'm Rachel and I work for Conagra Brands. I made a small request on the Conagra Brands Talk page to update some financial information. Would anyone here be interested in taking a look? I'm doing my best to follow all the COI rules so I won't make any edits myself. I'd appreciate the help! RWConagra (talk) 19:19, 25 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Main Deli Steak HouseEdit

Should Main Deli Steak House (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) have the name of this restaurant as it appears on the sign in front of the restaurant in the article? (which also happens to be the official name) It's been deleted as being a contravention to "common name" (what that means I don't know, since WP:COMMONNAME is an article page name policy and not an article content policy) -- Several other restaurants also seem to have had the names on their signs stripped from the articles in favour of only using the "common name" in the text of the article.

Chris KempczinskiEdit

Hello, WikiProject Food and Drink editors! On behalf of McDonald's, I've submitted a few requests to update the page for president and CEO Chris Kempczinski. In addition to a proposed addition about his current tenure, I've suggested adding mention of his Economic Club of Chicago speech and adding additional text about his tenure as president of McDonald's USA.

User:Crystallizedcarbon and User:FeldBum have been helpful in updating the article on my behalf, but these requests remain unanswered and I'm hoping some editors here may be able to help. Thanks for your consideration. MattMcDonalds (talk) 17:27, 2 June 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
