Re: wikipedia corretto entry

Ok, we need an argument for retaining the Corretto as a separate entry in Wikipedia.

For starters, post here if you are using a Corretto - a good starting place would be its widespread use, eg "10% of just one forum uses it, of course its a common thing....."

Then we need examples of other entries in Wikipedia that "could" be combined but arent.

It might also help if the opening paragraph was edited into something resembling proper English.

Also as another aside CS is not a co-op. It is a privately held company.

Re: wikipedia corretto entry

Well I can join the "save the corretto entry" campaign as I picked up a breadmaker that I won on the dreaded auction site today. So with a bit of luck someone will bring my heat gun down from Newcastel for me on the weekend and I will be an official Corretto Club member. Even stirs for 27 minutes without modification. Hope it can stay on wikipedia is such a cool thing.
Vote 1 Corretto for Wikipedia!

Re: wikipedia corretto entry


On a side note, the "Corretto" is also listed amongst the home coffee roasting section, in its only little paragraph :-)

We have to justify why it needs to shine on its own little entry ..........

Because it is an innovative way to home roast with a DIY roaster allowing totally hands free operation. It provides results similar (could say identical - but that might offend some!) to a commercial roaster.

Re: wikipedia corretto entry

Edited and improved - I would strongly encourage others to add their own wisdom to the article - if it is seen to be growing then it becomes a live article. If you dont have a wikipedia account you can still edit  - just click on the edit page tag at the top - better to get an account though, editing without one may display your IP address in the changes log.

I have also expanded the article on Coffee Snobs and would appreciate expansion there also!

Re: wikipedia corretto entry

I warned you.  :

Wheres that newspaper article gone?
Ahh there it is http://coffeesnobs.com.au/YaBB.pl?num=1160117270/0

The link to the newspaper article is in there.
http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,20588792-5004581,00.html

Ill try add it to the wiki article as a reference because it mentions CoffeeSnobs as well as the breadmaker.

EDIT:
Great minds think alike.
I see someone has beat me to it.
