Inability to be completed notice
There should be a notice at the top of the article that states, this list can never be completed, I see those on other articles. 98.97.32.22 (talk) 03:43, 6 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Should we add Dynamic list? Certes (talk) 14:56, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, that’s what I’m talking about! I just don’t know how to add it. 98.97.114.31 (talk) 23:25, 7 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I see it already has a Incomplete list notice. That's probably better here, because the list has a defined scope (the main subcategories within the Foods category page, along with information about main categorical topics and list article links).  Dynamic list might be seen as an invitation to add every food someone can think of, which would distort the list by exploring those areas in excessive detail.

Changing name?
It's either going to be a very, very long list, or it's going to be a list of lists. There's a part at the top that seems like someone started a list of all foods based off of the main or one ingredient. Then below it there's others that link to other lists. I think this article should decide whether it's going to be an extremely long list or a list that lists other lists and the name should reflect that. This article should know what it is. It's about listing food, but how do we go about that? Wacape (talk) 04:19, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Who knows. This article is an enigma. I agree there needs to be a direction going forward. I think it should be a list of lists with short descriptions of each and maybe a FEW examples in each category. LegalSmeagolian (talk) 03:46, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
