Talk:Flour kurabiye

Merge discussion

Instead of merging this anywhere, you should make a proper Kurabiye article with emphasis at the Turkish cuisine, which is the mother cuisine for all Balkans. There are many varieties of kurabiyes in Turkey like un kurabiyesi, acıbadem kurabiyesi, and Kavala kurabiyesi (what the Greeks call "kurabiedes"). Without having the mother article (qurabiya) made properly (at this moment it is a confusing mixture of Greek "kurabiedes" and "Polvorones") you can't decide to merge or do anything else on "flour kurabiye". Why do we have this situation? Because Wikipedia is edited more or less freely, and this causes absurdities like this. If you have more Greek and Mexican editors than Turks and Iranians, or better said if you have more editors who see Wikipedia as a place for propaganda and not what it should be, something which emanated from Persia and diffused in a wide region by the Turks suddenly becomes, in Wikipedia, a Greek-Mexican product. Happy 15th birthday Wikipedia. Hope you leave behind these problems before your 150th birthday. --176.239.123.144 (talk) 07:18, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Clarification: When I say "if you don't mention kurabiye in polvorones article I don't mean that it is not mentioned there, as the origin of Polvorón. I am trying to say why don't you speak about Turkish kurabiyes like this one (un kurabiyesi) or acıbadem kurabiyesi or Portakallı kurabiye etc in that article also? Well, in fact you don't speak of the Turkish kurabiyes at the "kurabiye" article eather. You have managed to make omelette without using eggs, congratulations! --176.239.123.144 (talk) 07:26, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

I propose merging this into qurabiya.

I don't think that this variety of kurabiye is notable enough to have its own page, I cannot find enough reliable sources to establish that this is worth being split off qurabiya. The origin section overlaps completely with the content on the main page.

The Turkish page only cites one source, which has already been included in the main page.

My "research":
