Why is Egg in the Basket red? There is an Egg in the Basket Article on wikipedia lol.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.76.81.8 (talk • contribs) 19:33, 26 June 2006 (UTC).[reply]

fixed. Wikipedia article names (and therefore links to them) are case sensitive except for the very first letter. 24.19.184.243 13:12, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The purpose being???????????

Oh, I found the list useful. I just think it should be a category. McKay 22:07, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I agree. There are thousands of egg dishes unaccounted for in the list, so I don't see a tremendous obligation for red-link placeholders, and a category would all but eliminate the current maintenance requirements.

On a more general note, the culinary arts still have a comparatively desolate representation on Wikipedia, possibly because attentions and content are divided between Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Cookbook (whose authors often contextualize the dishes and components, so it's not just recipes). It's unclear to me what the dividing line between the two projects is or should be, but the current configuration seems imperfect.

However, I think we can count on this for the near future: Wikipedia is high-profile, Wikimedia Cookbooks are not. People constantly add stubs for food dishes to Wikipedia, and will continue to do so. Meanwhile, Wikipedias in other languages don't necessarily have thriving Cookbook projects, and in some cultural contexts it might be anathema to segregate the subject of food from the central knowledge base—I can sympathize with such a view. The culinary arts are so central to culture and cultural identity; it's not just about incidental usage or recipes. It's not always easy to determine which topics are culturally-entrenched enough to warrant Wikipedia entries.

Coming back to the case in point, I do believe this list should function as a category on Wikipedia since Wikipedia already has many robust egg dish articles. While gastronomics are central in every cultural context, in Western cuisine in particular egg dishes are quintessential and definitive: the pleats on a chef's toque symbolize the "100 ways" s/he can prepare an egg. The plethora of unique preparations from around the world which populate this list of egg dishes attest to the fact that the contemporary West isn't alone in its high regard and multifarious treatment of poultry eggs. If "Buffyverse" is a deserving category, how much more deserving are the key themes of humanity's gastronomic traditions? I think it's a fascinating cross-section. — Ringbang 16:04, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'll be damned if I know what your point is here. Sorry. I mean - I was the one who expanded the list from its lame origin, and yet, I get the strong feeling you don't agree with me. Which is fine. I just wish I knew what you were trying to say. --Mothperson cocoon 23:11, 9 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I give up. Mothperson 19:16, 19 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Having now transformed this pseudo-list into a list, I must confess I still don't see the point. It was fun, but I'm not about to write five dozen food stubs to turn all that red into blue. And having already gotten into trouble for turning another list into clutter, I'm not going to add anything in the way of descriptions. So I leave this list to the tender care of others who may pass by and think of improvements. In this case, it was definitely the egg that came first. --Mothperson 13:05, 24 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

"Plain egg dishes"[edit]

These are not "dishes" so much as basic preparation methods.--Ericjs (talk) 19:44, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

True enough, but useful to have for everyone.--DThomsen8 (talk) 23:34, 31 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
