Talk:Teacake

message: I removed this:  "Another, unrelated British confection is known as a "chocolate teacake": see main article at Chocolate-coated marshmallow treats" because the information is already in the hatnote (although it goes to a specific popular brand).  If you want something like this (to direct to this link), then I don't think that sticking it in the middle of the article is the best choice.  Perhaps a ==see also== section?

replies: text: I'd question most of this article. Say 'teacake' anywhere in Britain and I expect most people would think of the chocolate/marshmallow variety. Not seen the 'other' kind in decades.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.61.95 (talk) 12:47, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The hatnote is insufficient.  I've added a short section on the chocolate-covered marshmallow Tunnock's Teacake in a new Scotland section.  Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:54, 22 January 2018 (UTC)

message: I genuinely thought this article was the victim of a practical joke the first time I read it. Now, a few days later, I don't know what to think. Unless somebody cm offer a valid wiki reason for providing all those citations - it really borders on 'water is wet, reference needed' - I am going to remove them and that note from several ago.
I'm also not at all certain that, in this case, if not a full recipe, at least a very detailed description would help. No, wikipedia is not a cookbook but, also, no, wikipedia need not be a dictionary definition only.Pauci leones (talk) 15:51, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not common knowledge everywhere. But the top tag on the article that notes that it needs more citations should be enough. Graham87 04:49, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with that. I'll set about removing the wet water, white is white reference demands.Pauci leones (talk) 07:32, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: With the exception of a citation without reference, which is justified, I took out all the cites needed tags. Such actions are done not to improve articles. I agree the article still needs more work, but that was just plain nastiness.Pauci leones (talk) 17:12, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: 14 Million Cites Needed

message: I love eating them, but my knowledge of English counties is limited to happy visits. It's confusing as it stands. Thanks.Pauci leones (talk) 17:15, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Is it "West Yorkshire or in the west of Yorkshire?

message: I reverted the editing out of slicing into fingers and so forth because I've eaten them that way and yes, with marmite, too. Whoever changed the text, please explain your reasons on the discussion page and we can talk about it. Maybe you wanted to limit the article to the way teacakes are eaten in your area?Pauci leones (talk) 00:24, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Reverted Edit

message: Hey, the bit about Singing Hinnies is wrong - if you read the recipe you've linked to you'll see that they are a type of griddle scone, and they are called this because of the noise they make when being cooked - nothing to do with teacakes or glazes!86.12.57.30 (talk) 21:53, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

thread_title: Singing Hinnie

message: This article states they are a type of soda bread. However, the "tekaka" entry in Swedish Wikipedia says (as far as I could tell) that they are a yeast bread. So is it one or the other, or both? I did find a soda-based recipe for a "Swedish cake rusk" on allrecipes.com 76.66.113.136 (talk) 02:20, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: As the article notes, "teacakes" are different regionally. Candleabracadabra (talk) 03:09, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but not regionally between the different regions of Sweden. I checked fact and it is indeed yeast-based in the recipes that I found (and as I expected based on the taste of them). 46.236.82.205 (talk) 20:51, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

text: BTW, Are they really widely warmed before serving? I just ever used them as a slightly thicker normal sandwich, though marmalade and cheese fit well to the type of bread, making them ideal as a tea time sandwich. 46.236.82.205 (talk) 20:55, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
