Glamorgan sausage[edit]

  • ... that the earliest recording of the vegetarian Glamorgan sausage references the use of pork as an ingredient?

  • 5x expanded on 10 April (and since promoted to GA). Neutral, well referenced and appears to be free from close paraphrasing. The hook is very interesting but I can't see where the article mentions that it was the earliest recording (the source doesn't seem to state this explicitly either). 97198 (talk) 08:18, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
  • I've struck that hook - here's a similar alternative:
  • Alt1:... that an 18th-century recording of the vegetarian Glamorgan sausage references the use of pork as an ingredient?
  • It's the 1795 onwards bit that I'm referencing in the new hook. Miyagawa (talk) 12:22, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Great, thanks. Alt1 is good to go. 97198 (talk) 12:31, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Is it me, or is the "recording of" wording a bit odd? Surely "recipe for" would be better? Cordless Larry (talk) 05:15, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
  • No, it is not just you, I think it is awful too. How about "18th-century reference to"? Moriori (talk) 03:50, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
