Food extrusion

(

• Back to T:TDYK
• Article history

)

• ... that food extrusion was first used to produce sausages in the 1870s, and is now used in the production of pasta, breakfast cereal, baby food, candy, breads, snacks, meat analogues, and pet food?

• New enough and long enough at the time of nomination. Images have acceptable copyrights. Hook is properly formatted. QPQ not required.
• Offline sources not plagiarised and fully support text.
• Article is not fully supported by sources. As the lead is not consistently cited, it should be either COMPLETELY cited or summary style, introducing no new information in it that isn't found in the body with a citation.
• Hook facted relies on "Karwe, Mukund V.. Food Engineering. 3." Can more information be added to describe this source? --LauraHale (talk) 01:07, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

Some notes:

• I've added publisher, year, isbn, and chapter details for the Karwe source.
• Do we really need to source the term "residence time". This is a common term in all extrusion processes, not just food extrusion.
• Several of the tags in the list in the "Effects" section are actually sourced in the text that follows. The Harper reference, for example, addresses the issues related to microorganisms and toxins. (Second paragraph after list.) I'll look for references for the other effects mentioned.

I'll try to address the remaining issues in the next few days. Mindmatrix 02:09, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

As some one knowing nothing about food extrusion, yes, this all needs to be sourced. If the harper sources support it, make this more obvious by putting them at the end of the paragraph the harper supports. Otherwise, the reader doesn't know and cannot verify. --LauraHale (talk) 02:15, 29 July 2012 (UTC)

• The creator/expander has not made any edits since the above comment despite significant editing activity elsewhere on Wikipedia, and there are several "citation needed" templates still in place in the article. As it has been three weeks since Orlady's reorganization on July 30, the nomination is regretfully being rejected. BlueMoonset (talk) 01:30, 20 August 2012 (UTC)

I forgot about this, but note that I haven't been involved in "significant editing" since this request was made. All I've done since then is revert vandalism, which takes little time, and taken about a one-week Wikipedia break too. Oh well, bad timing by me... Mindmatrix 14:34, 20 August 2012 (UTC)
