Talk:Kütahya Province

message: The Turkish page for the Kutahya Province is much more developed. I suggest to translate parts of Kutahya Province’s early history from the Turkish page and add it here. In addition, I suggest to add new information about the historical nomadic tribes in the region. Wintersflower (talk) 09:08, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi  please, by all means, go ahead! :) Any constructive edits are always welcome, and I quite agree that this is a very short stub relative to the 'importance' of the subject. Just bear in mind that in what comes to references and sources, the standards vary between the different language wikis; therefore, what might be acceptable on the Turkish wiki may not be so here, or vice versa (in my limited experience, the English-language wiki has probably the strictest criteria, at least of the few I've come across). So please take care to ensure that your edits are supported by good citations from reliable sources. Cheers, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 09:27, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

message: Hello, I noticed that the English Wikipedia article for Kütahya Province does not have information about the local cuisine. 
::I have done research and written up this information I that I think will be very beneficial: 
::"A large portion of Kütahya’s nutrition and food culture is based on home goods, with wheat products, dough products, and dairy products forming the foundation of the local diet.http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturu The most consumed foods in the region are erişte, a type of homemade pasta, bulgur and tarhana, especially kızılcık tarhanası.http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturu Bulgur and tarhana hold a prominent place in the local cuisine as they are products that are consumed on a daily basis. https://kutahya.ktb.gov.tr/TR-69393/yoresel-yemekler.html Dough goods also make up a large part of Kütahya’s cusine. For instance, well-known local dishes of Kütahya are cimcik, a type of pasta, haşhaşlı pide, şibit and gözleme http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturuhttps://kutahya.ktb.gov.tr/TR-69393/yoresel-yemekler.html.
::Kütahya’s food culture was predominantly based on home goods. The local population depended on what they produced at home and rarely bought from outside sellers, such as markets. However, this has changed in recent times as the population became more urbanized. Now, more and more people buy daily food necessities, such as bread, from the market or bakeries. http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturu Nevertheless, the population continues to practice staple food traditions. For instance, vegetables, such peppers, beans, and eggplants, are still harvested during the summer time and dried in preparation for the winter. http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturu Similarly, the local population continues to prepare food products that are consumed on a daily basis, such as tomato paste, erişte, tarhana, and pickles, at home." http://www.kutahya.gov.tr/kutahya-mutfak-kulturu 
::Some of the dishes mentioned here have Wikipedia pages, so I will hyperlink them. WindermerePeaks (talk) 12:31, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

message: sites of interest for an entire province, especially when they are unlinked and no idea where in the province or why they are of interest, are too general.  Moved to talk, along with the tag for it being a laundry list RJFJR (talk) 03:15, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
