I was thinking of what to suggest as a "naming guide" - what do y'all think about
Title, Contributors, Location, Year
While there might be oodles of compilation recipe books using the same title, by including the group, location, and year would pretty much guarantee a unique name for each space/category page.
So, for instance, if a DAR chapter published a recipe book, its page(s) would be named (hypothetically)
Best Loved Recipes, DAR Bill of Rights Chapter, Virginia, 2008
For USA locations, I think that including a county/city would make the category name too bulky. But, as Phil mentioned, location is going to be key, so the category page itself would need to include appropriate location category/categories (more specific than just "Virginia", which is a top-level category anyway). Following the categorization hierarchy of the One Name Study project, we could then have Category:Virginia, Recipe Books to help people find them.
