Hi,

In general, revision history of a recipe would be helpful.

I spent a lot of time on GitHub. I can draw a couple comparisons between that and this site:

  1. "Adapting" a recipe is a bit like "forking" a repository
  2. If you own a repository (recipe), you don't necessarily want to fork (adapt) it. You may just edit it in place.

Of course, GitHub being GitHub, revision history is inherent. So here, you may be wary of "editing" in place--since there's no revision history--and "adapt" your own recipe instead. This can create many slightly different copies of the same recipe. For me, it's pretty tedious to keep a clean house.

Related, I think often times people will adapt a recipe they found to suit their preferred VG/PG ratio and nicotine %--I always do this. Changing these values--not the flavors--isn't really a "new" recipe. A straightforward solution to this would be choosing some defaults (or several "profiles") which would apply to any recipe you see on the site. So regardless of what Joe Vaper put in for VG/PG%, you'd see whatever your "profile" was set to. Then you wouldn't need to bother with adapting it at all!

I wonder what others would think of these two ideas?
