Wikipedia:WikiProject Food and drink/Foodservice taskforce

About the Foodservice task force Some Wikipedians have formed a task force to better organize information in articles related to the foodservice industry, restaurants, quick-service restaurants, catering, and other parts of the professional food industry within WikiProject Food and Drink. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. This page and its subpages contain the suggestions of Wikipedians who are actively involved or employed in the foodservice industry, whether as managers, operations support personnel, buyers, health inspectors, or other people with an interest in foodservice operations. Scope This task force aims to be a complete resource on restaurants, eateries, and foodservice in general from individual restaurant chains and major restaurants to equipment vendors and health codes. In general, the scope of this project is to find and improve every restaurant and foodservice article on Wikipedia to the point where they could become featured articles.
