[edit] Community forums

A community forum has been established to help manage common goals of the associated Food and Drink WikiProjects. A general forum can be found here.

Goal specific forums

• Guidelines forum - This forum has been set up for the various Food and Drink projects to develop a set of Manual of Style guidelines for use in articles under the auspices of all the related Food and Drink WikiProjects and task forces. This would be similar to the MoS guidelines for biographies or legal articles.

• Restaurant notability guidelines discussion - This guideline is intended to extend WP:CORP, in no way to replace its purpose, in regard to restaurants. It is also not intended to replace, supplant, or otherwise alter the standard notability requirements.

The reason this extension of the notability requirements is necessary is that there is a constant inflow of pages for restaurants that do not have, or have a very tenuous, notability.
