replies: text: Again this is unsourced. If you wish to prove a point then please find a reliable source of evidence. You can’t just say that people are wrong to think it’s from Tibet. AtishT20 (talk) 07:13, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

text: lol, Bhrikuti came to tibet as the chosen queen to spread buddhism, not momos TMQaham (talk) 04:24, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

text: Momo has nothing to do with Nepalese people or their culture. Momo word as per the Oxford dictionary has Tibetan origin and meaning. Momo was, is and will always be a Tibetan dish. Nepalese people have dishes similar to their Indian brethrens like Thali, dal bhaat etc,. 2A00:F29:2C8:B363:CDC4:8260:4FCC:B147 (talk) 22:49, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

text: Why is there a sudden change in the place of origin? The page remained fine and there’s no sufficient evidence to prove that momos came from Nepal. AtishT20 (talk) 07:12, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: The references cited on this page did not support attributing their origin exclusively to Tibet or Nepal. The best thing to do in that case is to present both viewpoints and point out that the evidence is inconsistent. Apocheir (talk) 21:35, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: This still does not mean that we can include that Nepal is one of the countries of origin. AtishT20 (talk) 21:46, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Please stop this nationalist edit warring. If the cites don't definitively settle the issue, neither can the Wikipedia article. We can either keep the 'or' version, or we can remove both claims entirely. We cannot have the article pick a side by choosing only one. MrOllie (talk) 22:05, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: This has nothing do to with Nationalism. I’m not Tibetan so your point is invalid. AtishT20 (talk) 08:50, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

text: The reference  that asserts that momos originated in Nepal is of poor quality, but the references asserting that momos originated in Tibet are no better. Apocheir (talk) 01:16, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

message: It's not momos, please correct that. "Momos" name is not acceptable form of name and never existed before. It must be Momo or Mo:mo. Thank you 142.113.184.211 (talk) 04:29, 19 March 2024 (UTC)

message: momos is not a word as the word momo does not contain any plural form. since it is a nepali word you cannot make it plural by adding an "s" behind it just like we cannot make pasta plural by calling it a "plate of pastas". momo can denote both plural and singular as you can call it a plate of momo or eat a single piece of momo. "momos" is used outside nepal and tibet like in india where the dish got introduced much later and its name got anglicized as they added an "s" to make it plural.

message: Momo is a proper name. Although it is in plural form, it is never called Momos. Most people get it wrong, especially Indians.117.20.68.221 (talk) 21:13, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
