That would be with pleasure that I offer you the recipee for the 
Pastilla I promised to Ponteauchat recently Ed.

However, I will not lose my time writing a recipee that will be 
immediatly listed on votes for deletion, and that will indeed be 
deleted, unless *I* make the effort to make a stub for it to preserve 
the link. The current proposition is that unless someone make a stub for 
it, the page will be deleted and no link to recipee preserved.

This is the current proposition

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Talk:Ratatouille&diff=2514708&oldid=2514051

I am lucky, I went from "unique complainer" to "minority on the subject".

So, the proposition is that unless someone make the specific effort to 
save the article, it will be deleted and links not preserved.


I have a couple of options.
* Either I spent several hours per week making stubs for recipees 
articles, in order to save them from deletionists. I dunno if it is the 
way I foresee my future in wikipedia;

* Or I undelete all deleted articles, till a compromise is found, or I 
end up in front of arbitration for abuse; somehow, that fits my 
personality better :-)
