Dessert edit
Cake is listed as a subclass of dessert. "Dessert" is explained in the associated articles as a "typically sweet course that concludes an evening meal". Cake, however, can be eaten not as a dessert in the post-meal sense. Are there two senses of the word "dessert" that we're confusing here? One being a type of food, the other being a course eaten in a particular situation? (This applies just as much to the 20 other subclasses of dessert, I suppose.) --Yair rand (talk) 01:02, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
- Further point that just occurred to me: I think the other two classes (baked good (Q4498085) and pastry (Q477248)) might also be wrong. Not all cakes are baked, or made of cereal products (for example, some kinds of cheesecake). Yeesh. What is cake? --Yair rand (talk) 01:42, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
- I've removed all three classes and added confection (Q5159627), which seems to be accurate. --Yair rand (talk) 00:18, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
- En:confection? Hm. Looks like Q5200157, aren't they the same? --Infovarius (talk) 13:28, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
- @Infovarius: Doesn't look like it. Most of the linked articles seem to be regarding a term specifically about things like candy/sweets, chocolate bars, fudge, and so on. Basically sugar confections, sometimes called "candy" in English, although the English article "candy" is linked to other language articles on a more specific sense of candy, while itself being about the broader term. candy (Q185583) should probably be split, with some articles being moved to confection (Q5200157), which should be relabeled in English. confection (Q5159627) can be about confection as a whole, including bakers' confection, sugar confection, and other categories if there are any. --Yair rand (talk) 22:24, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
