21: I think since the article says it's a cross between butternut squash and buttercup squash, we need a sourced statement in the article to call it a miniature version of butternut? (Or am I missing that already explicitly there and sourced?) Also I'm wondering if we might want to point out that it's a sweeter version, as that might make this hook more interesting to a broad audience. --valereee (talk) 15:20, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
- Pic: MJ, I see these are your own photos. I don't suppose you took one next to a regular butternut? They really are very different and seen beside one another, clearly not simply a smallish butternut. Might be a more interesting pic? --valereee (talk) 15:23, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
- We could just go with Alt 1. Most of the popular sources covering the squash refer to it as a 'miniature butternut', a term I don't use in the article to be more formal, but I explain that it is bred to be a smaller alternative. We could just go with Alt 1; I was just providing an alternative. As for the photo - yeah I took one with a real butternut, but the photo isn't nearly as good, and the only butternut I had was a half-size one anyway, so it's not a good size comparison. Sometime I might redo it with a typical butternut and the honeynut. ɱ (talk) 15:38, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
