  • Transwiki recipe. There are dozens more like this on List of cocktails but Wikipedia is being very slow right now. They should all be looked at; most need to be moved to wikibooks. Exploding Boy 13:11, Jul 28, 2004 (UTC) moved off main vfd page
  • Keep. The list of cocktails is an ongoing project that's been around since the Wikipedia started. Periodically, however, they still turn up here. Smerdis of Tlön 13:29, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, cocktails are encyclopedic. - SimonP 17:05, Jul 28, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: What Wikipedia is not specifically says that we are not a cookbook, and the article has no other content. I would be happy to change my vote if information about the cultural or historical significance of this drink was added. -- Creidieki 21:46, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Well, the User:SimonP in me says "keep it; after all, we have a million other cocktail articles already, don't we?" But the User:Creidieki in me says "we're here to write an encyclopedia, not to list every single foolishly-named random alcoholic concoction conceived by some drunken frat boy on a dare." To this, my inner User:SimonP retorts: "but the gates have been opened, and the damage has already been done." The User:Creidieki within ponders this for a moment, contemplating how much work it would take to transwiki all of the cocktail articles, and slowly hangs its head in defeat. Keep. --Ardonik 06:19, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC)
    • Not a good reason to keep. It may take a lot of work, but ultimately moving these cocktail recipes to Wikibooks where they belong is the best thing for the encyclopaedia. Once we start allowing cocktail recipes, then it's appetizers and party foods and the next thing you know we're a wholesale cookbook site. Exploding Boy 07:45, Jul 29, 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki, delete. Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. It will take as long to transwiki all the cocktail articles as it has to transwiki all the September 11th articles -- years. But it can be done at the same rate everything else is done: one article per article. SWAdair | Talk 03:56, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Elf-friend 17:20, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, see Votes for deletion/Slippery Nipple -- कुक्कुरोवाच|Talk‽ 20:46, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete, unless someone explains (not asserts, explains) why this is encyclopedic. -- orthogonal 21:44, 30 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki to the Wikibooks cookbook. Rdsmith4 | Talk 16:07, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki. Good for Wikipedia, good for Wikibooks cookbook. -- WOT 21:25, 31 Jul 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki & delete. Wile E. Heresiarch 19:06, 1 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Transwiki and delete. But I wish there was a better way to search all things Wiki so pushing stuff off Wikipedia didn't diminish it. Salasks 20:39, Aug 2, 2004 (UTC)
