Article length is appropriate
The article is representative of Global cuisines: there are many continents, nations, states and regions in the world, thus the article has a corresponding length. The same rationale applies for the amount of images in the article, which are used to demonstrate the many diverse cuisines in the world. Northamerica1000 (talk) 01:54, 10 August 2011 (UTC)
- I disagree. There are far too many images here, they should be reduced to about a tenth. One or two signiture dishes for each continent should be fine. AIRcorn (talk) 03:00, 18 August 2011 (UTC)
- Article has been cleaned up, many images merged into galleries, per Wikipedia layout guidelines. Northamerica1000 (talk) 21:58, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
- I still think there are too many images. Also, be careful with your captions. You wrote "sarma prepared in a grne" which should have a capital letter and you also wrote [port wine]] which I assume should be port wine. I have fixed this for you. Puffin Let's talk! 17:08, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
- Having too many pictures causes accessibility issues. It will take a long time for someone to load the article if they have slow internet connections. Also people access using different sized screens. On my current computer the multiple image beside the table of contents actually overlaps the TOC. The first images in the Asia, Japan, Korea, Russia, Western Asia section squeeze the text. This is a problem with most of the multiple images in text and also occurs when two images are aligned left and right with text in the middle. Thus instead of the pictures enhancing the article they make it look messy and hard to read. The galleries (like the one under Additional African foods and dishes) are better in terms of presentation, but will still affect load times. I would aim for just one picture per section (possibly two if the section is big) and maybe a gallery like the one under Madagascar at the end of each continental section.

Merge discussion
Outline of cuisines is being proposed for deletion because of Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#RfC: Elimination of outline articles so there is no point merging it as both articles may be deleted that way. Puffin Let's talk! 21:14, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- Support merge Consensus looks to be strongly against deleting the outlines or at the very least renaming them so nothing would be lost. Looking at the two articles the appear almost identical. AIRcorn (talk) 23:26, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
- Merge the outline material into the Outline of cuisines, and merge the paragraphs into the cuisine article - The format should match the type of page the material is being merged into. There are two formats in this article. The paragraphs follow Wikipedia:Summary style of article expansion, while the list items match outline format. I suggest we divide the two formats of material accordingly between the cuisine article and the cuisine outline. The Transhumanist 22:19, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
- Merge - This list, it is not an article, is a duplication of the outline of cuisine list. It should be merged ASAP. --Jeremy (blah blah • I did it!) 03:18, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- Don't merge - This is an article, not an outline article. Keep both articles separate. If this data is merged to Outline of cuisines, then it is possible that the content will be deleted, to retain an outline format. This is definitely not a duplication of any other article. The information is organized by alphabetically by continent, which may make it appear similar in appearance to the Outline of cuisines article, due to the formatting style. Northamerica1000 (talk) 19:31, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
- Comment - Also note that the Outline of cuisines article currently has only a mere 14 references, likely because it's an outline, similar to a list. This Global cuisines article currently has 133 references to verify information in the article. Northamerica1000 (talk) 19:41, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
Too many images
This page has too many images. The page is slow to load and to save. And the amount of images is a distraction. While the topic does lend itself to visual representation, this may be confined to examples of type, and the relevant linked articles themselves can provide further details as appropriate.

Photos removed
Below are the images that I have removed per wikipedias request for "cleanup". Maybe writer have a problem, so here is the files in case.

Please do not delete redundant internal links in this article
The article is organized by continent, and there may be some link overlap due to varying conventions and models of continental definition.
Please retain the article format: All section headings are alphabetically ordered by continent. Thank you.
