Template:Noodle (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

Redundant to the more general Template:Pasta, which has been around much longer & is better for describing pasta products & subjects contained in the pasta template. Removing the pasta template & replacing it with a noodle template for all the pasta products & subjects is not helpful. FieldMarine (talk) 05:11, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The old template Template:Pasta is specific to Italian pasta. The new Template:Noodle includes the old Pastat template info and adds other countries. jmcw (talk) 05:59, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The pasta template is the more general one. The Asian noodle items should be added to the pasta template as "Asian noodles". IMHO, it's not helpful to have a noodle template for the pasta subjects. Nor is it correct to call the pasta varieties in the Noodle template "Italian pasta" because some were actually created in North America & many other places. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 13:42, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What would you propose about Korean, Japanese and other 'pasta' subjects? jmcw (talk) 21:48, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Rename the {{Chinese noodles}} template to Asian Noodle & merge the items from the {{Noodle}} into Asian Noodle template. The {{Noodle}} by itself is redundant. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 22:02, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Couscous,Fuži,Halušky,Ptitim and Spätzle in an Asian template? jmcw (talk) 22:07, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Couscous is a noodle? I believe it's closer to a pasta. Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 22:16, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
See the pasta article for a discussion. jmcw (talk) 22:24, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see in the pasta article any reference to Couscous being a type of noodle. Please provide a ref for that. Thanks. FieldMarine (talk) 01:27, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
From Couscous, "Couscous is a Berber/Arab pasta dish of semolina...". jmcw (talk) 09:34, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
So why is Couscous in a noodle template? Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 13:48, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or merge into an expanded, non-italian-centric Pasta template. Right now this template serves an important purpose, as a catch for items that do not fall under Chinese or Italian related noodles. -- nsaum75 !Dígame¡ 20:56, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep The noodle article lists Italian pasta as a redirect to pasta. The pasta article discusses Italian food only ( small mention of couscous]]. Talk:Pasta has a fairly clear consensus that the pasta article should only mention Italian food. The template:pasta has reverts on non-Italian noodles. [1][2] I believe that we need a nav box for the general case of noodles. jmcw (talk) 21:44, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Question Do we have agreement here on the relationship of pasta and noodles? The articles on pasta and noodles indicate pasta as a subset of noodles. Do we have consensus on the meaning of the words 'noodle and 'pasta'? jmcw (talk) 09:34, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Where does it say in the pasta article that pasta is a subset of noodle & what is the reliable reference for that? Semper Fi! FieldMarine (talk) 13:52, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • It sounds like our coverage of these interlapping subjects is insufficient in articlespace. That should not preclude someone doing the right thing and not artificially separating them in templatespace. The arguments against a merge here are weak to the point of comedy. Chris Cunningham (user:thumperward) (talk) 02:05, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep or Expand. I went to Bigoli not having a clue what it was (google translate having left it untranslated), then saw this template, admired it, used it... and only then saw that it was up for deletion. No! Very useful I found it. Apologies for lack of more intellectually rigorous reasons for keeping ;-) Also, "noodle" is a nicer word than "pasta" almost-instinct 13:56, 15 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Recommendation for pasta & noodle templates
[edit]

I recommend keeping the {{Pasta}} template & use it for all the pasta products & related subjects and merging the {{Noodle}} template with the {{Chinese noodles}} template and use that one for all the noodle products & related subjects. Perhaps we can keep the information in the templates separate, but link the two templates with a Wikilink (I'm not sure how that's done). Part of the reason i say this is that the Noodle template was pretty much was broken down geographically by type whereas the pasta template was by shape & subject. Semper Fi!

Template:Colonial New England (talk · history · transclusions · logs · subpages)

I do not believe that this template, which I created, is necessary any longer. It's rarely used and incomplete, and too large as it is in this style. dci | TALK 03:58, 11 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
