Indeed. We *have* a Wikibook for recipes, last I checked, and it's
supposedly where all those "transwiki to recipes and delete" stuff
goes. Of course, Wikibooks isn't quite Wikipedia.
[[WP:NOT|Wikipedia articles are not]] recipes. They might conceivably
contain recipes, or they might be about recipes (random thought- we
have an article anywhere about that Neiman-Marcus or however you spell
it cookie recipe story that you hear all over? :). However, I would
think that a brief description of the content of a dish would usually
be more encyclopedic-feeling than a recipe. And yes, the mood is one
of the issues.
