Portals

Portals go in See also sect. -- Cirt (talk) 17:06, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Is there any way to make the "portal chunk" align left? It creates a a huge blank space between the header and the actual See also list. Voceditenore (talk) 17:45, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Easy fix = expand the rest of the article's body text. -- Cirt (talk) 17:50, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Chapters

This is unencyclopedic and should be removed. The Contents sect should be a paragraph-format summary of the book. -- Cirt (talk) 13:53, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Reception

Looks great so far! Could use a Reception sect ... -- Cirt (talk) 21:32, 11 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks! I've never written an article with people watching from the bleachers before. ;-) I've added a brief Reception section describing the only in-depth print review. (The other two were simple descriptions, accompanied by reprints of one of the recipes, and I prefer not to use reviews from websites with reader-generated content.) The book only came out two weeks ago, but I'm sure it will be possible to expand this as more reviews are published. Voceditenore (talk) 09:00, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

I'll review this one shortly. Wizardman 22:40, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Wasn't as shortly as I would've liked, but oh well. Here are the issues I found:

Address the cite needed tag.
"and a portion of the proceeds from I Love Bacon will be donated to the two charities." Since the book was released a few years back, should this be past tense?
Ref #8 (KC star) is a deadlink.
Any reason why 1.5 paragraphs of the contents is uncited? Granted if it was cited this is a case where it'd be to the book itself given the content there.

Not too much to fix. Article is on hold, will pass when fixed. Wizardman 03:32, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

@Wizardman: - I fixed the citation needed, reference 4 had it though I moved it to the end of the sentence. An issue exists with the KC Star - Archive.org wasn't capturing at the time it was inserted and it is not in their system. Also, the KC Star does not allow a public archive search of more than 8 months or so back in their system. I have no doubts to any of the material, but I cannot resolve the deadlink to a new source. The uncited information comes from the book itself and technically doesn't need a source, but I'll do what I can for you. Amazon lists the information on preview and this is verifiable like the Bakon Bloody Mary on Page 11 and more information on the contributors are on 109. Not sure what you want to do since the book is citing itself. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 17:52, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

For the KC ref don't worry about it, I don't doubt what's there. I presumed it was from the book itself but wanted to be certain of that; since it is I won't push for a cite. Since the rest is addressed, I'll pass the article. Wizardman 22:42, 2 February 2015 (UTC)
