[edit] Gonna break it out

I'm going to break this out between cullinary mustard and mustard plants, and a disambiguation page for cullinary mustard, mustard plants, MUSTARD, mustard gas and the color mustard.

Culinary mustard is made from the seeds of several mustard plants, the different species making different types of culinary mustard. If you make sure that connection remains fully discussed, you'll be fine. Mustard gas has nothing to do with mustard: break that out to your heart's content. Mustard as a color seems like a rather slender encyclopedia entry, once it's separated from mustard: well defined below without using the word "mustard": a feat! A Mustard (disambiguation) page is always a good idea. --Wetman 08:15, 21 September 2005 (UTC)


[edit] The color of mustard

What is mustard as a color?? It says at U.S. hundred dollar bill something that implies mustard must be a color. 66.245.127.199 21:49, 30 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Mustard, as a color, is a bright yellow ochre -- a slightly dirty yellow.
I found a couple of claims that the HTML hex code #ffcc11 is mustard, although this is somewhat darker than what I think of as mustard. --Pekinensis 19:20, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)
A bit orangey for mustard too. --Wetman 08:15, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect

Someone should redirect this to the plant or the condiment and place this page at mustard (disambiguation). That someone who has just typed in "mustard" would be looking for anything other than these two is highly unlikely. Readers shouldn't be confronted with so much disambiguation cruft when seaching for such a common topic.

[edit] Cluedo / Clue

For ease of navigation I added the link so "Cluedo" would reference directly to its article here in Wikipedia. I'd never heard it called that here in the U.S. and the link would have been an easy way to find the info. Greenbomb101 (talk) 18:03, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
