Why? It is very different!

Scope

[edit]

I've just clarified the lead - this topic relates to "covered steaming with rot rocks". That's why merging with Oven isn't sensible, and why the text regards the tandoor was removed . Snori (talk) 22:18, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If that is in fact the case, then the topic of the article is too narrow to begin with, as earth oven cooking is not inherently a moist method of cooking. In fact I have some further material to add on the matter. I've restored the references to tandoori and masonry oven as being technologically relevant.

Fire pit

[edit]

Is there a difference btw an earth oven and a fire pit? Creuzbourg (talk) 16:30, 11 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Language and consistency

[edit]

I have done a light edit to improve grammar, spelling and punctuation, as requested in the issues section. There are still inconsistencies, in that there is a mixture of American and British English and a mixture of metric and imperial units. Also, the meaning of the first sentence in the second paragraph of "The Pacific" was too unclear for me to be sure that I could edit it without changing the meaning. Perhaps the author could look at it?

[edit]

It's not unreasonable imho to have a section in the article discussing modern versions of hangi/umu - and perhaps links to some news stories about examples. However, it is NOT reasonable to have a whole section pushing one product - as an anon user has been doing. - Snori (talk) 17:09, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
