Talk:Masonry oven

A question
Is the proper name for those long handled trays Pizza Paddles or is there some other name?

Purpose
The purpose belongs in the definition, which has to be at the very beginning of the lead. My pocket Webster's says "oven = a receptacle or compartment for baking, drying, or heating. Our article lacks this essential bit, and it shows, as the text seems to concentrate only on cooking. Or is "masonry oven" a clear, well-established phrase which only refers to cooking ovens? If so, this needs to be stated and supported with reliable sources. Arminden (talk) 21:54, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
