river vs creek[edit]

Hey, Sailko, it looks like the photos we're using are yours -- very cool! -- and that you might be familiar with this area? I'd had a hard time deciding whether to describe it as a river or creek (and some sources say "torrent") and what the name of it was. Do you know what the official description of that waterway at that point is? Thanks! --valereee (talk) 17:48, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

valereee Hi! It's a small "river", see italian page Pescia (fiume). Pontito is the name of another village more northern, I think it's not necessary to mention that. --Sailko (talk) 18:55, 13 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

... that the sorana bean (pictured) is grown in such small quantities and is in such high demand that it commands prices six to ten times that of other cannellini beans? Source: In 2007 Saveur magazine reported the price for soranas was ten times that of other cannellini beans. https://www.saveur.com/article/Kitchen/Mangia-Fagioli/ and A 2016 study found that sorana prices are typically six to seven times higher than those of standard beans. https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/3a17/2ef52837a71ce4aa390fc2dc9d7ba6ace95d.pdf p183
- ALT1:... that composer Gioachino Rossini once accepted payment of "a few kilos of those precious beans" (pictured) from Giovanni Pacini for correcting one of Pacini's scores?

DYK requirements have been met, hooks verified and cited inline, no close paraphrasing found, QPQ done. ALT0 is the more interesting of the two hooks and probably appeals to the widest audience, although I've linked to cannellini since it's likely an unfamiliar term for many readers.

Sorana bean in NYT source from 2016 - grower asking for addition to article[edit]

The owner of Rancho Gordo asked about having the Sorana bean article updated/expanded with this article from the New York Times from 2016. I have another project I am working on right now and really don't have the capacity to get distracted by food (lol). So, I'm dropping it here on his behalf. We follow each other on Twitter and he had asked about it and a few people tagged me to help. So, I hope someone here can lend a hand. Thank you all for your great efforts to maintain this Good Article! Missvain (talk) 01:00, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
