message: I think it is extremely rare that æbleskiver is cooked with slices of apples or applejuice - only time I have got that, was an experiment in my family.

:I agree, I think this tradition is pretty dead. I have never seen it either. However, Frøken Jensens Kogebog (a Danish cook book from around 1900) noted that it is a possibility. Source: the Danish Wikipedia. Valentinian (talk) / (contribs) 08:18, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

message: In the article it was noted that Danes don't eat aebleskivers for breakfast anymore. Now I can't answer for Danes in general, be it Denmark or elsewhere, but my family has a tradition of having them for breakfast on holidays, and get togethers. I myself will have them on a semi regular basis. I'm using a variation of the waffle recipe in the Betty Croker cook book. My copy doesn't actually have a recipe for Aebleskivers. I'm using a Griswold cast iron pan I picked up in an antique shop. You can get them quit cheep if you look in communities where they don't know what it's for.
I recommend the style designed for gas stove use, as the drop down sides make for a more efficient use of heat.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kittyrinn (talk • contribs) 23:07, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I have created a short instructional video describing the cooking process to make round aebleskiver. I mistakenly included a link to the video in the External Links section, which I have learned (the hard way) was not appropriate. It sounds like Wiki guidelines require that links like this should be included in the body of the article, which I hesitated from doing in the first place since the video is branded, and I am using my own aebleskiver mix in the video. I created my own video because I wasn't happy with other videos available online, and feel that the instructional content of the video is valuable to people trying to learn about aebleskiver. What is the appropriate course of action? I don't want to be accused of spamming the page when I'm simply trying to improve content. Perhaps I need a different video format? Do I need to de-brand it?
I also feel that the other External link to the history of aebleskiver should be removed, and the content should be added to page. It's fantastic content, but sadly isn't following Wiki guidelines either. Chad.gillard (talk) 20:51, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

message: I think the list of æbleskiver events in North America has gotten out of hand. Perhaps originally it was envisioned to list just a very few events that are devoted to æbleskiver, but instead it's being used as a catchall for every Danish event where one imagines they may be found on the buffet table. This amounts to WP:TRIVIA. Imagine if Spaghetti and Pancake listed every spaghetti dinner and pancake supper fundraiser or social event held in the United States.
I propose trimming the list to the couple that are called "Æbleskiver Days", events where they are the focus and that amount to more than a breakfast or a dinner. Your thoughts? —Largo Plazo (talk) 23:01, 09 January 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, mostly.  We might also want to to add some of the list to Danish American, perhaps as a separate list of Danish American cultural events.  BTW, please sign your posts on talk pages.--Hjal (talk) 02:20, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

text: I was just about to take care of this today, following another editor's addition of one event, but User:McGeddon got their ahead of me. I can't imagine it's controversial (famous last words, right?). —Largo Plazo (talk) 22:09, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Didn't realise there was a talk page thread, I just noticed the list for the first time when someone added another event to it today and it struck me as redundant. A source that gives some context for "Æbleskiver Days" and confirms that the food is more prominent or popular than any other at Danish celebrations outside of Denmark (if this is even the case) would be useful. --McGeddon (talk) 22:30, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Precisely. I had figured that if any of them were significant, it might be the one at the Danish-Canadian Museum, but I haven't looked into it. —Largo Plazo (talk) 22:31, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

message: The given pronunciation does not seem to conform entirely with what would be expected given the information provided by the article on Danish orthography. ZFT (talk) 22:15, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you be more specific about where it differs from what you expected? —Largo Plazo (talk) 00:11, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

text: According to Den Danske Ordbog, the broader type of transcription that we use on Help:IPA for Danish is, more or less, . A very narrow transcription that represents the actual pronunciation is  (but hardly anybody transcribes it as such). There's also the issue of stød - I'm not sure whether the  syllable has stød on the long vowel () or not (). If it does, feel free to add it to the transcription.

message: The history section in this article has little encyclopedic value. It contains one extreme speculation that is almost certainly not true, cited to the website of a US-American restaurant in California, which is far from a reliable source. This restaurant appears to have created the myth from whole cloth; every other resource on the history of the food I can find mentions that author, as well. Indeed, I would argue that this myth fails to meet the standards of verifiability.

replies: text: I found a couple of comments about this online asserting that Viking shields were wooden and that they, therefore, couldn't have been used as pans over a fire. Largoplazo (talk) 11:48, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, this assertion is actually just ridiculous. It may deserve to be in the article, because it's an important part of the mythology of these things, but certainly not in the history section until such a time as we know something true about the history.
