Sylheti cuisine: None of the sources in this article point towards a distinct Sylheti cusine; rather they talk about certain dishes which originate from the Sylhet district or happen to be popularly eaten in Sylhet.  There is no source which mentions Sylheti cuisine to be notable in its own right.  The article is also poorly written, and mentions unrelated content such as pop culture and information about nutrition.  This article should be deleted.  UserNumber ( talk ) 17:33, 14 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete : @ Guffydrawers : has also noted the numerous issues with the article, particularly the vague phrasing and inappropriate and misrepresentative usage of sources.  A similar article by the name of Chittagonian cuisine was also deleted for similar reasons here .  UserNumber ( talk ) 17:33, 14 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge : I propose that any valid, relevant & sourced information be merged into Bangladeshi_cuisine#Sylhet_Division and that the article Sylheti cuisine then be trimmed to only contain a redirect to the Bangladeshi cuisine article (not the subsection, as that may change).  Regards Guffydrawers ( talk ) 15:55, 15 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge per norm.

Relisting comment: Can those who have ! voted discuss their positions further?  @ UserNumber : Are you okay with merge as an WP:ATD ?  @ Guffydrawers : Any input about which information might be valid, relevant & sourced?  @ Mehediabedin : What "norm" did you mean, or did you mean "nom" (although they recommended delete)?  -- Worldbruce ( talk ) 18:00, 31 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, Worldbruce ( talk ) 18:00, 31 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment The google translation from Bengali of the title of the second ref is "Fisphas Kitchen - Sylhet Cuisine," so There is no source which mentions Sylheti cuisine to be notable in its own right is false.  I haven't checked the translations of the other Bengali refs, but I've fixed a few of them because there's quite a lot of link rot.  small jars t c 21:07, 31 March 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Thanks for the fixes.  To be fair, the title you mentioned [37] is of a self-published blog by a non-expert, so not a reliable source .  I've removed it from the article.  -- Worldbruce ( talk ) 15:46, 1 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Worldbruce : Sorry for my mistake.  Actually I told to merge it because what the nominator suggested.  And yes it is "nom" but I wrote "norm".  But I didn’t suggest delete because maybe many pages have link with this article.  Mehedi Abedin 02:46, 1 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Worldbruce : "input about which information might be valid, relevant & sourced" I'm gradually working my way through the article, checking refs, simplifying and correcting.  What remains when I'm done should be worth considering for retention.  I'm trying not to throw out the baby with the bathwater, so care rather than haste.  Regards Guffydrawers ( talk ) 14:09, 3 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment I have completed a rework of the article to remove junk, dead or irrelevant refs, enforce encyclopedic tone, translate relevant text from Bengali sources into English and more.  The article is a lot thinner, so I continue to propose that what is left be merged into Bangladeshi_cuisine#Sylhet_Division in order to make this article a redirect to there.  Sylheti cuisine is IMHO worthy of a section within the article on Bangladesh, but not so different to merit a separate article on English WP.  Regards Guffydrawers ( talk ) ...but I see the Bangladeshi cuisine article has some of the same issues that will need addressing before we have a rounded and robust treatment of the subject.Regards Guffydrawers ( talk ) 07:02, 4 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
