Talk:Abura-age

complexity
>"Because of their long storage life, light weight, and complexity of production, tofu pouches lend themselves to large-scale factory production and widespread distribution."

shouldn't that be "low complexity"? the sentence seems weird. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.213.38.46 (talk) 01:53, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Title
I moved this from aburage. Before anyone considers moving it back there, let me make it clear that the second a in aburaage is not simply an elongation of a vowel. It's an independent vowel (the word consists of abura + age), and the transliteration should reflect this. TomorrowTime 05:18, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Aburage (あぶらげ) without a second "a" mora is another name for this. JoshuSasori (talk) 02:39, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

(Ichiyama 1968)
There seems to have been an effort to reference this article with things like "(Ichiyama 1968)" but it's not clear what that is. JoshuSasori (talk) 02:38, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Start tidying up
I moved the page to the hyphenated form, abura-age, because this is given by Kenkyusha. Then as I was going through, I realised that the second paragraph was referring to the subject as a "Tofu pouch", which seems reasonable. This should obviously be explained, but I have a passion about getting rid of the standard WP lead style: a looong sentence, with " is a ", where the dustbin contains everything about the name, how it is pronounced, written, history, dialects, foreign equivalents etc ad nauseam. As it stands, there would be three different sorts of variant: varying romanisations (hyphen or not), varying Japanese names (it is also commonly known as aburage), and foreign equivalent ("tofu pouch").
