best recipe for building a new kernel on fedora 20?

followup on last post -- i'm using this page to build a new kernel
for my f20 system:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Building_a_custom_kernel
is that page meant to be up to date? if so, it needs a bit of
tweaking. (and, yes, i *know* it's a wiki but i'm not confident enough
to want to change it myself.)
mostly, the problem seems to be here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Building_a_custom_kernel#Build_the_New_Kernel
"For example, to build just the kernel and kernel-devel packages,
the command would be:
rpmbuild -bb --with baseonly --without debuginfo --target=`uname -m` kernel.spec"
uh, no. if that's all you specify, you get *way* more packages than
just kernel and kernel-devel -- when my build worked earlier today, i
think i counted 11. so that claim is a massive underestimate, but i'll
let someone higher up the food chain deal with it.
