Discussion about the article

Lead image

Georgelazenby (talk · contribs), please don't take offence at my having moved your image and supplied and inserted a lead image that is significantly more illustrative. Your image shows a whole cake — a very pretty one, to be sure, certainly worthy of inclusion in the article — but we know it's a cake under the frosting only because the caption says so. Because the cake in my image has a slice out of it, we can see the exterior and the interior. We can actually see the cake part of the cake in my image, and that makes it a better selection for the article's lead image. That doesn't mean my image is objectively better or yours is objectively worse, just that mine's more appropriate as a lead image. Please keep in mind that it's neither coöperative nor appropriate to reinsert your own image just to have your image at the top of an article. Let's all work together to make this article the best we can, eh? —Scheinwerfermann (talk) 04:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm making a note here: huge success

It's hard to overstate my satisfaction... with this Wikipedia entry. This cake looks great, so delicious and moist.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.92.83.171 (talk) 04:11, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. What we have here is truly some delicious cake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.187.57.206 (talk) 08:14, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Image

I would like to suggest adding a new image to this article. Specifically, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:CakeDecoration.jpg shows a nice photo of a decorated cake. I'm sure there might be better photos out there, but I feel this would be a nice addition until better photos arrive. Unfortunately, I do not have adequate credentials to add the photo now. Please add this photo to the article if you feel it helps at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kitz000 (talk • contribs) 06:34, 28 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

cheese cake

i would like to suggest that the cheesecake part of this entry be edited to read, "cheesecake is not actually cake but a [custard] [pie]." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Themangospanker (talk • contribs) 04:33, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mmmm...

That cake with the jam filling looks tasty GwannaSauna (talk) 05:33, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It was. :-) —Scheinwerfermann ^T·_C17:16, 6 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
