Talk:Cochinita pibil

To quote Wikipedia itself:

"Instruction manuals. While Wikipedia has descriptions of people, places, and things, Wikipedia articles should not include instructions or advice (legal, medical, or otherwise), suggestions, or contain "how-to"s. This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes. Note that this does not apply to the Wikipedia: namespace, where "how-to"s relevant to editing Wikipedia itself are appropriate, such as Wikipedia:How to draw a diagram with Dia. If you're interested in a how-to style manual, you may want to look at our sister project Wikibooks."

Could people please stop reverting the page so that the recipe keeps coming back? There is already a link to http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Cochinita_pibil on the page in a very Wikipedia-agreeable template which links to the Cookbook on Wikibooks, which is where the recipe should be. A recipe should not be on this page. Sorry. End of. --Andyroo316 04:40, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, yes, yes, some policy says to delete something but you aren't paying attention. You wouldn't be getting reverted (by bots even) if you weren't so blatantly deleting huge chunks of information besides the recipe.  In this diff you didn't just delete the recipe, you deleted the interwiki links and categories AS WELL AS why that particular version of the recipe was notable (its appearance as a plot point in a major movie, and then the how-to as a special feature of the DVD).  The article is better off with a recipe and a lot of text than deleting huge chunks without paying attention.  Slow down.  Read what you're editing.  Be surgical.  Replace what you can.

2010 Jan 1 - The well-intentioned link to the cookbook recipe is broken. Someones' been jacking around in Cookbook too, and I can't get the link to work. Thought it was a simple pagename change, but I don't really understand the template for linking to cookbook, and am not doing so well troubleshooting the broken link. At least you currently get the "this page was deleted and moved" message, but that's just sloppy. Can someone fix the link to cookbook:cochinita_pibil please? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jbrogers (talk • contribs) 01:36, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Annatto or recado rojo
Is the annatto used in the recipe just annatto (the ground seeds of Bixa orellana), or is it recado rojo (achiote paste, made by grinding together Bixaseeds and other spices)? --Jorge Stolfi (talk) 18:31, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
