Don't stop with just recipes either, our guide sections will need lots of help too.

Jpfan01 has created a fantastic guide to help you get started with wiki formatting. You can access it from our Contributing page. Please follow the guidelines listed as it makes the editor's lives much easier.

Lastly, If you want to add a variation to another person’s recipe that is minor enough that it doesn’t warrant a completely new version, add it in a variations section at the very bottom of the recipe and sign with your user name Adding a ~~~ will add your username


We're hoping that eventually we'll be able to have this site as a quality recipe archive for all the tasty treats on the Goons with Spoons forum in the Something Awful Forums. This site can only be as good as its contributors though, so register and dig in.

Consult the User's Guide for information on using the wiki software.
