My thoughts on not archiving recipes are that somewhere someone is going
to archive. That tag means nothing because each time someone sees a
recipe, they may or may not save it. I am grateful for each tried and
true recipe posted. I try them and if we don't like the dish, it gets
tossed. As far as getting credit for recipes, yes it is nice. If you
don't want to share them (a pity) don't post them. Once they are
posted, you have no control over how they are used.
