Recipes Wiki talk:Rules

I would like to propose the following policy rules so that:
 * 1) Recipe titles must be in title case format.
 * 2) Use abberivations for units (eg. g, oz, cm, lb).
 * 3) Don't abberivate cups, tablespoons and teaspoons.
 * 4) The recipes must be formatted according to the proposed Manual of Style.

If no one comment on proposals after 1 week, I'll modify the policy page. Android 1123581321 (talk) 18:12, 20 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello.Thanks for taking the time to think about some additional rules. I don't know what you mean by titles in 'Title Case Format' specifically -- do you mean no special characters? There aren't a huge number of those; I'm not sure it needs to be a rule. Nor do I know what you mean by the proposed Manual of Style, unless it is all the abbreviations you propose?


 * In terms of the abbreviations, it makes absolutely no sense to me to require them in one case and forbid them in the other. My instinct for consistency (and brevity) is to abbreviate all units, including cups, tablespoons and teaspoons (which are units also, and have standard abbreviations that are in common use). But again, I don't particularly see why this should be a requirement, any more than requiring which measuring system is used. -- Wendy (talk) 01:52, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
