Recipe to Riches
The show is certainly allowed to have an article if it cites reliable sources (newspaper or magazine coverage, etc.) and maintains a neutral point of view (i.e. is written as a strictly informative article about the show and doesn't cross the line into being too blatantly an advertisement instead.) The particular version of the article that I deleted last year didn't meet our rules — but that doesn't mean the show can never have an article, it just means it isn't allowed to keep that version.

I'd be happy to restore the page to your own userspace (it'll be at User:Kjrichmond/Recipe to Riches) so that you can work on getting it up to snuff — it's just not ready for our main articlespace in its current form. If you need some assistance in figuring out how to make sure it will be kept, try checking out some of our better-quality articles about other TV reality show competitions, such as Dragons' Den or The Apprentice — each show has its own unique aspects, so you obviously don't need to follow those models exactly, but it'll give you an idea about the kind of writing tone and structure and referencing that we're looking for. And, of course, if you still have some questions feel free to give me a shout.

Hope that helps. Bearcat (talk) 17:28, 18 August 2012 (UTC)
