Food applications[edit]

Food applications

"As the compound most responsible for the flavor of caraway, dill and spearmint, carvone has been used for millennia in food.[2] Wrigley's Spearmint Gum is soaked in R-(–)-carvone and powdered with sugar."

This is misleading. Plant material containing carvone may have been used for millenia, not pure carvone. 92.25.248.222 (talk) 21:23, 28 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The following suggestions were generated by a semi-automatic javascript program, and might not be applicable for the article in question.
  • Please expand the lead to conform with guidelines at Wikipedia:Lead. The article should have an appropriate number of paragraphs as is shown on WP:LEAD, and should adequately summarize the article.[?]
  • Please make the spelling of English words consistent with either American or British spelling, depending upon the subject of the article. Examples include: flavor (A) (British: flavour), flavour (B) (American: flavor), aluminium (B) (American: aluminum), routing (A) (British: routeing), sulfur (A) (British: sulphur).
  • Watch for redundancies that make the article too wordy instead of being crisp and concise. (You may wish to try Tony1's redundancy exercises.)
    • While additive terms like “also”, “in addition”, “additionally”, “moreover”, and “furthermore” may sometimes be useful, overusing them when they aren't necessary can instead detract from the brilliancy of the article. This article has 11 additive terms, a bit too much.
  • You may wish to convert your form of references to the cite.php footnote system that WP:WIAFA 1(c) highly recommends.
  • Please ensure that the article has gone through a thorough copyediting so that it exemplifies some of Wikipedia's best work. See also User:Tony1/How to satisfy Criterion 1a.[?]
You may wish to browse through User:AndyZ/Suggestions for further ideas. Thanks, Wim van Dorst (Talk) 21:19, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
