Cookbook:Harder Dinner Recipes
On 21:42, 17 November 2006, this was put up for speedy deletion with the rationale "Looks like rubbish; not a recipe; certainly not 'hard'". It contains only a beginning to a recipe on an eggplant dish.

While I agree that this isn't worth much, I wanted community oppinion on whether to move this to a stub called Cookbook:Eggplant parmesan or just delete. --Swift 03:43, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment & probably stub it. Certainly not speedy as it has valid content.  i guess stub it -- Herby  talk thyme 08:03, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete. There's a long way between this "stub" and a recipe for Eggplant Parmesan (see here for an example). This looks like a newbie play page, not a fair dinkum attempt at a recipe - I wouldn't call it "valid content" (WTF is Pollyo brand cheese anyway?). To top it off, I don't see any point in a page called "Harder Dinner Recipes". BTW, I proposed it for speedy delete. Webaware 09:21, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment The page name doesn't really matter since (as proposed as an alternative above) the page should be renamed if kept. Rest of your argument is good. --Swift 10:25, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment the page is brand new November 17th. It may have been a good faith effort by an inexperienced user to share a recipe. That user may intend to come back and finish it up. I think we should try not to bite. --xixtas 17:55, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment Give it time. The idea of a page for 'hard' recipes seems like a good thing but at the moment much work is needed. Xania 23:20, 22 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Comment This doesn't deserve a VFD. At best, it deserves a "does anybody want this?" on Talk:Cookbook. What I think it deserves is a speedy delete as it is (a) horribly incomplete (b) horribly formatted (c) added by an ip user who is unlikely to return (d) a bad idea. I've just spent huge amounts of time trying to clear out the junk from the cookbook, so we need to be vigilant in killing off things promptly. Kellen T 13:11, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
