This is a definition, at best, butWikipedia is not a dictionary. And there is already a definition in Wiktionary. Geoff | Who, me? 21:39, 30 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose (originator): it's not simply a definition, it also includes a historical example. And sources exist to expand the article further, so concept is valid, and there is no deadline for expansion. MatthewVanitas (talk) 04:40, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I've expanded with more historical context. MatthewVanitas (talk) 04:48, 31 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep per WP:HEY and WP:ODD. It's been fixed up, and sourced better. We tend to keep such oddballs. Bearian (talk) 02:54, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep as nominator (changing !vote from delete) per Bearian's remarks and the work done since the nom. The article has become better sourced and is now more than a mere definition. Geoff | Who, me? 15:46, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Pretty clear keep -- poor nomination: its actually a food item common in several cuisines. Sadads (talk) 22:16, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
