message: I came to wikipedia to find out what species the yellow turnips sold in belgium are, but I only get reidrected to rutabaga, this I believe is wrong, the yellow turnip does not look like a rutabaga, but I am not sure since I cannot find out more about it. It appears to be a variety of turnip. Though it may be a hybrid? It tastes halfway between a radish and a rutabaga in my opinion so that is why I came to find more info about it, but it is not mentioned anywhere on english wikipedia that I found. This redirect seems to add confusion, I'm not an experienced editor so I thought I would make do with a headsup on the talk page.

replies: text: Actually it is correct to redirect "yellow turnip" to this page because in some places that is what they are called.  I doubt that there is more confusion about naming any vegetable than this one.  And then if one does research, rutabaga may be called a turnip and one must just assume they mean rutabaga...and on and on...which I know because I tried to do research for the Halloween section of this article. I looked at the links you have provided and it appears that these are an unusual variety that is yellow - in the same way that some radishes have different colored flesh than the usual white.  Why don't you add it to the turnip page?  I'll help you if you need help.  Gandydancer (talk) 17:54, 4 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The mention of 'radish' suggests some sort of Mooli / Daikon rather than a turnip. --Ef80 (talk) 11:27, 28 March 2020 (UTC)

message: Move to swede. A rutabaga is not an actual name and is a pathetic joke.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:3FB0:300:BC36:37BA:1D93:59CB (talk) 10:40, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

message: Even though it wasn't "printed" Pliny discusses rutabagas in Book XVIII C. 34. Probably a significant addition to this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Droopyfeathers (talk • contribs) 20:02, 11 November 2020 (UTC)

message: As a teenager in the late 60s I worked on a farm here in Cheshire, UK, paid 10p (2 shillings) per hour to "snag" mangles and turnips, and had we grown swedes it would have been the same term. So the term "snaggers" isn't  so archaic! Another Geoff (talk) 17:59, 7 May 2022 (UTC)
