Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Food and drink

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Food and drink. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Food and drink|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Food and drink. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

Israeli feta

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

There are many problems with the references. For one, no page numbers are given. I cannot find the books "Cheese from the Land of Milk and Honey: A Guide to Israeli Cheese". I also can't find "Food in Israel: A Mediterranean Journey." or "The Secret Life of Cheese: The Complete Guide to Cheese and Cheese-Making in Israel", although the authors exist (Mayer-Chissick appears to be an Israeli author and is listed by the National Library of Israel (https://www.nli.org.il/en/a-topic/987007462694605171) but this particular book is not mentioned). The source by Gur exists (and can be found here https://archive.org/details/bookofnewisraeli0000gurj/page/220/mode/2up?q=feta) and has a section on cheese but does not mention Israeli feta. The same is true for the source by Nathan (https://archive.org/details/foodsofisraeltod0000nath/page/242/mode/2up) which is cited for a claim about bourekas, ziva, and borek, but does not mention any of these dishes, at least from a quick search. As such, it appears difficult to verify any of these claims, unless somebody can provide page numbers. ISBNs would also help.

The creator of this article also created the article Shifra cheese, which shares many of the same issues and which I also nominated for deletion (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Shifra_cheese). Truthnope (talk) 02:08, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Shifra cheese

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

All seven references are used simultaneously for every section. Verifiability for these claims is questionable. No page numbers are given for any of these books. The two links given are dead and cannot be recovered from the wayback machine.

Furthermore, the citations for the books seem off. For example, there is a Daniel Rogov who writes guides on Israeli wine, and there was a version published in 2005, but the title The Ultimate Guide to Israeli Wines isn't used (there is a The Ultimate Rogov's Guide to Israeli Wines from 2011) and they seem to be published by Toby Press, not Gefen Publishing House. There is also a book called "The New Middle Eastern Vegetarian: Modern Recipes from Veggiestan", but the author is listed as Sally Butcher, not Gil Atlas. I cannot find the Schreiber or Lewin books anywhere. Only the Solomonov and Cook reference has no apparent flaw. If anybody can find a few of these sources (perhaps they're in Hebrew), I'll withdraw this nomination, but as is, the article appears to be built on almost nothing.

Keep: First of all it is a part of the wider 2023–2024 European Union farmers' protests, which was notable event during the time it reported, it was the first time a protest arose from the allies of ukraine during the Russo-Ukranian War. The event was widely reported as poland had border with ukraine and mainly discussed in notable news reports.

The Event marks a turning point marking discontent in public opinion of poland in helping ukraine.

The 2023–2024 European Union farmers' protests includes the articles like 2024 French farmers' protests, 2023–2024 German farmers' protests and the Dutch farmers' protests while these articles are kept and deleting the 2024 Polish farmers' protests would be unjustifiable as all belongs to the Same major event and protest in poland had major impact than others in the event.

Keep It's the general name for several flatbreads in the Middle East, certainly notable and independent enough for a page. jolielover♥talk 09:52, 19 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Also worth noting that "Kuboos" is different from Pita bread; Pita bread is thicker and softer, while this type is more popular for shawarmas. It's very rarely referred to as Pita bread here actually; I assumed it was North American. I don't think Pita and Khubz are the same thing. Some links (just to prove what I'm saying is true, obviously not to be used as sources: [5],

[6]) referring to this flatbread as Kuboos, Some info on that could be added. Also, I'd recommend moving this title to Kuboos since that's usually how it's spelled and pronounced. jolielover♥talk 11:01, 21 June 2025 (UTC) [reply]

- I still think it should be kept as it's the term for bread in the Middle East and typically refers to Arabic bread. There should be a general page for Arabic bread as there are different types; however, am striking my vote since maybe the article should be recreated, or something of the sort. Arabic bread or bread in the ME would probably be a more appropriate title. jolielover♥talk 04:22, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Move to 'Bread in the Arab Middle East' or something similar. 'Khubz' can be any bread. --Soman (talk) 23:01, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Jolielover there is no word in Arabic as "Kuboos". I don't know what you are referring by that word. The article in question is about Khubz, not Kuboos. "Kaboos" means nightmare in Arabic.

Khubz in Arabic can refer to any type of bread. Just type bread in Google translate. Khubz is "bread". It is a word. Not a type of bread. 176.28.150.183 (talk) 03:39, 24 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete – Of the references for DestaGlobal, Startup Success Stories India, Techcircle, Business Standard India, The Hindu Business Line (partially neutral), InterCon Dubai (YouTube), EVENTFAQS Media, Rural Marketing, and Digital Empowerment Foundation are focused on DestaGlobal’s success, awards, and positive impact. Most of these are based on the company’s claims without independent verification. The National and The Hindu are references that adhere to journalistic standards, providing neutral information about DestaGlobal’s work, but they lack detailed information. Hence, they are not sufficient to strongly support the claims. Some people may have different opinions about these two sources.-SachinSwami (talk) 7:01, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
