message: "The word literally means "mixed rice" or "mixed meal."" -- The last syllable (bap) means rice.
----
Although bap (밥) in Korean can mean both rice and meal, bap in Bibimbap must be "rice" only. Reason for that is becuase that is what it means in bibimbap and there is another mixed meal called "Bibim guksu" (비빔국수) which means "mixed noodles". The "mixed noodles" are also a kind of mixed meal. So if the word Bibimbap can literally mean "mixed meal", Bibim guksu can be Bibimbap too as mixed noodles can be a mixed meal. Yet Korean people never call "Bibim guksu" "Bibimbap" or vice versa.
 Bibim guksu -> mixed noodles
 noodles -> can be a meal
So if
 Bibimbap -> mixed meal
Then
 Bibim guksu -> mixed noodles -> mixed meal -> Bibimbap?
 Bibim guksu = Bibimbap?
It doesn't make any sense. Therefore Bibimbap literally means "mixed rice" but not "mixed meal".  --Kevshlee (talk) 08:10, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

message: It was just removed that an egg and sliced beef are normative ingredients in this dish.
Encompassing the average of all versions of bibimbap, as served in South Korea and elsewhere, what is the estimate of what percent of bibimbap (both cold and hot stone pot) is served without an egg? What percent is served without an egg and beef? If the percent is something like 10 percent (something like pizza without cheese, which is fairly unusual, generally encountered only in nouvelle cuisine and special pizzas for vegans), we should regard the egg and beef as standard ingredients rather than as "common additions." Badagnani (talk) 07:50, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would say the egg is fairly standard but not universally included or integral. Speaking from experience, beef or another meat is not usually included without being requested. Absent of an authoritative, uncontradicted source that indicates otherwise, and as there are variations according to region, individual restaurants etc., it would be appropriate to start with the basics (mixed rice and vegetables), pointing out that egg is common, and noting that other things such as beef or other meats (chamchi (tuna), jeyuk (spicy pork) etc are also widely available) can be added or included. Ascertaining the "average" components of what is sold as bibimbap by soliciting opinions on a Wikipedia talk page would constitute original research. I'm fine with removing the "pre", although it was to disambiguate between adding an egg cooked separately, and adding an egg which cooks when it comes into contact with the hot food or hot bowl.

text: 10-15% sounds plausible, and in line with what I noted earlier. I do live in Korea - you'll find that and several more interesting nuggets on my user page - however, I don't have any particular knowledge about those dishes. Deiz talk 02:27, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

message: The gallery section was unilaterally deleted by admin, Deiz as quoting WP:IUP. However, the policy page has no mention that inserting galleries to articles is prohibited. It only states like "use of gallery is generally discouraged". I believe the images in the gallery is necessary for readers since bibimbap has more varieties than the current article could cover. Deiz, if you don't agree with me, please come to discuss with me on this.--Caspian blue 19:08, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

message: The caption of the image in the preparation section reads
A selection of ingredients for making bibimbap
but I believe the small dishes in the picture are Banchan, side dishes normally served along with Bibimbap, rather than being ingredients found in the dish itself. So that probably either needs to be corrected or a different picture selected. I think it might be good if this page mentioned them too, but I defer to someone who actually knows Korean food --anon  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.183.84.60 (talk) 05:07, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

message: Hi, I removed the hanja (Chinese characters) "" from the article, as both bibim () and bap () are native Korean words. Please do not add hanja when the word is not Sino-Korean. Searching the word in Wiktionary (or preferably in Standard Korean Language Dictionary, if you know Korean) is helpful. The search result of bibimbap in the Standard Korean Language Dictionary shows that the word does not have a hanja representation.
Korean vocabulary consists of three main categories: native Korean words, Sino-Korean words (imported from ancient Chinese, invented in Korea, or imported from modern Japanese and Chinese; pronounced with Korean readings) and loanwords (mostly transcriptions from other languages, including Chinese, Japanese, and other languages using Chinese characters; pronounced with transvocalized Chinese/Japanese pronounciation regardless of the Korean reading of the hanja characters). Please note that only the second (Sino-Korean) category of the words can be written as hanja.
Some examples:
* Native Korean words are written in hangul only: water, makgeolli
* Sino-Korean words are written in hangul and optionally accompanied by hanja in parentheses: ()tea, ()milk — Putting hanja is not necessary as Koreans rarely use hanja in their daily life.
* Loanwords are written in hangul and optionally accompanied by the original language: (), () — Here,  inside the parentheses is not hanja, but Japanese (original language).
P.S. The Chinese characters , , and  are pronounced as ping, pang, and ban in Korean. --Talitiainen (talk) 08:28, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi . Thanks for the information and great explanation. I actually added the hanja after seeing it in the lede of the Korean version of the article and didn't check the dictionary, though I certainly will in the future. I'm assuming you understand a lot more Korean than I do, so should this be removed from the Korean version? Thanks again, Ry's the Guy (talk|contribs) 09:43, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks for letting me know! I removed  from the Korean Wikipedia page as well. The hanja characters were added by 76.167.232.59 in this edit, which seems like an edit by a Chinese (or possibly other language) speaker who doesn't speak Korean. (I've read some of their edit summaries and saw that many of their edits were reverted by others). --Talitiainen (talk) 10:00, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

message: I cannot find a definition for shiteme oil as mentioned in the Wikipedia listing for bibimbap. I searched for different spellings; shitimi, shiitimi, etcetera; on the theory that somebody spelled it wrong in the article. Recipes for Jenju Bimbimbap on the web call for sesame seed oil or roasted sesame seed oil. 
The editing history of the Wikipedia bibimbap article shows that the article was revised by an unidentified editor (identified only by URL) 23:58 2020-03-12, changing the term “sesame oil” to “shiteme oil”. It seems to have been “sesame oil” for several hundred revisions going back to 2005. I think somebody played a bad joke. That's just a guess on my part, I know nothing about Oriental languages, being a Caucasian from southeastern USA.

message: Should we italicize all mentions of "bibimbap", including in the title? Hanbok is italicized.
Relevant policy: MOS:FOREIGNITALIC. Based on the policy, I think whether we do depends on whether the word is "common" in English; I'd argue "bibimbap" isn't any more common than "hanbok" is in English. toobigtokale (talk) 20:27, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
