Well candied yams are a very American phenomenon and its significant because much of the time but not always what is called candied yams are actually sweet potatoes  Moving this info to the page on yam creates imbalance in the article since in the global scheme of things American candied yams are trivial but now take up  of the article  And since they are not actually yam for the most part one wonders if that info belongs there at all  Im not arguing to keep this page as it is  there is duplicate info here about yam  but since candied yams are usually not yam then maybe it should not be on the yam page
