Article title

The title of this article is grammatically incorrect, it should be "Outdoor cooking", for the current words to be correct it would be "Cooking outdoors". If someone objects, please let me know.--Christopher Tanner, CCC 23:41, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I would like this back at Campfire cooking. Outdoor cooking is too broad. Every schlub who throws a burger on his patio grill will now be able to write odes to his favorite bbq sauce under the current title. We already have articles on backpacker's portable stove and for Grill (cooking) (and grilling) and barbeque. We don't need to open this up to those subjects as well. We do need a campfire cooking article. Rmhermen 16:44, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the rationale given for the current name change from "Campfire cooking" to "Outdoors cooking" --> Haikupoet (moved Campfire cooking to Outdoors cooking: Broader title allows broader focus to article) <-- Maybe we need a separate Campfire cooking article that focuses only on campfire cooking, and leave this one as "Outdoors cooking" or as mentioned above "Outdoor cooking". "Cooking outdoors" sounds more like a name for a Wikibook, than a Wikipedia article. - Bevo 18:55, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I stand by my reasoning that a broader title was needed, but I don't object to moving it to outdoor cooking (which is currently a redirect to this article) and possibly breaking out campfire cooking if necessary (I don't really think it is though). Essentially the focus of the article is cooking in a recreational outdoors setting such as camping, and campfire cooking was, I thought, too narrow a title to cover the subject. (I do agree that whatever the title of the article should be, it should exclude anything commonly referred to as a barbecue.) Haikupoet 22:38, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
