Some Wikipedians have formed a taskforce to better organize information in articles related to beverages. This page and its subpages contain their suggestions; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other Wikipedians. This project is dedicated to creating, improving, and maintaining articles related to beverages around the world, their history, and their cultural impact. If you would like to help, please inquire on the discussion page, see the Task list below or just start editing articles and link them to the project using the {{WikiProject Food and drink|drinks=yes}} banner.
One of the major areas of focus in the task force is the listing and categorization of notable alcoholic and non-alcoholicmixed drinks (most notably "cocktails") and related drinkware). It is neither an attempt to create a bar manual (Wikibooks already has a nice bartending manual under development) nor a list of every known mixed drink on the planet. Instead, it is an attempt to create a useful, in-depth topical reference on currently and historically popular mixed drinks. Non-alcoholic mixed drinks are shared with our sister WikiProject Soft Drinks, though we are primarily responsible for maintaining the quality of such articles.

Community forums
In 2008, a community forum was established to help manage common goals of the associated Food and Drink WikiProjects. The inactive discussion is located here.
Goal specific forums
Guidelines forum - This forum has been set up for the various Food and Drink projects to develop a set of Manual of Style guidelines for use in articles under the auspices of all the related Food and Drink WikiProjects and task forces. This would be similar to the MoS guidelines for biographiesorlegal articles.
Restaurant notability guidelines discussion - This guideline is intended to extend WP:CORP, in no way to replace its purpose, in regard to restaurants. It is also not intended to replace, supplant, or otherwise alter the standard notability requirements.
We shall try to follow the Manual of Style for all of our articles. We shall initially be addressing those articles contained in the Category:beverages
