CZ:Recipes will contain guidelines for adding recipe pages to the food categories and clusters.

What are Recipe pages?

A Recipe page lists basic, representative recipes as a supplement to our culinary articles.

Purpose

The purpose is to enhance our culinary articles by showing examples of how a dish is prepared. The goal is not to become a comprehensive cookbook with numerous recipes, rather to provide a simple illustration as to how a dish is prepared.

General guidelines for editing

  • The subpage will be limited to representative, even iconic recipes and variants of dishes. This will not be an "add your own recipe" subpage.
  • Recipe subpages shall not editable without prior discussion and agreement of a food editor, or in his or her absence, interested authors.
  • Recipe pertaining to different countries and states may be verified by some citizens belonging to that country or state.
  • When mentioning a technique in a recipe, be sure to include wikilinks so that readers unfamiliar with the technique can easily find out more information about it.

Heading and format standards

Because recipes vary in complexity, there will be some flexibility in format. Proposed headings:

  • Ingredients
  • Preparation
  • Servings
  • Notes
  • Category
  • Related recipes

Ingredients

Guidelines for standardizing ingredient lists...

Ingredients should be listed with the amount first with the unit of measurement spelled out in full, not abbreviated. Place an asterisk before each ingredient in order to form a bulleted list.
