Hi! I am taking this. Sainsf &lt;^&gt; Talk all words 04:37, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Lead

 * Could we expand the lead?
 * Done.


 * Please do not keep citations here. Put the facts in the main text as well and shift the citations there.
 * Done.


 * Just curious, do we really need to link "cook", "wafer cone" and "ice cream"?
 * Since it's the first mention of ice cream in cones, I think so; unlinked cook.


 * I think French should be linked
 * Done.

Context

 * Is link needed for "aristocrat"?
 * Maybe, but perhaps it's "common" enough.


 * and for the Prince and Princess of Wales Links?
 * Done.

Approach

 * Apart from the preface and Francatelli's advice...layout of the kitchen. Source? Or our "cite-the-book-directly" principle?
 * Done.


 * Link for ice cream?
 * As above.

Contents

 * Our "cite-the-book-directly" principle? I guess the same needs to be added at least in the last line of "Bills of fare"?
 * Done.

Illustration

 * Should this be "Illustrations"?
 * OK, it's the same.


 * All the other engravings are of completed dishes,...illustrations are not identified. Source?
 * Added.


 * There is a full-page frontispiece of the author I don't see why we need to link the author here again
 * Unlinked.

Bills of fare

 *  The exceptional royal dinner of 30 June 18411 had sixteen entrées  Wow, how does the earth look then? ;)
 * Fixed.


 * For the numbers used, I think you can use digits for all those above 10.
 * Done, I think.

Contemporary

 * every one of his fifty-six dishes Digits please
 * Done.


 * are not sweet nor hot "Neither" sweet nor hot?
 * Done.


 * George H. Ellwanger wrote in 1902 in his Pleasures of the Table --> In 1902, George H. Ellwanger wrote in his Pleasures of the Table
 * Fixed.


 * Gastronomy could be linked
 * Done.


 * Can we add the years for the books in this section and the next?
 * The editions are listed in the Publication section; reviewers are almost always commenting on the most recent edition, so I doubt there's anything to be gained here.


 * No URL or anything for ref. 3?
 * Wikilinked.

Alright. You have been very quick and efficient. The article looks better now. All my issues have been addressed. I would be glad to promote this. Cheers! Sainsf &lt;^&gt; Talk all words 10:34, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
