We "need" an article on "bag puddings"

Restructure
I think this article needs reworked. Wikipedia isn't Wiktionary and Wikipedia has articles on things written using English, not on old Scots words and their various meanings. Cloths and rags and things made of rags are covered by English articles on this project, so we shouldn't have an article on the old Scots word for cloths and rags.

The primary topic, if you search for "clootie" on the web is the dumpling. Nothing else gets remotely close. I suggest this page gets trimmed down to be a disambiguation page that links to two articles, one on Clootie dumpling (a pudding wrapped in cloth) and one on Clootie well (a place ornamented with rags). It is the job of Wiktionary to mention other meanings of the word clootie or sayings. -- Colin°Talk 13:35, 17 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I've created the Clootie dumpling page, starting with material from this page, which can be expanded. I also created rag rug and a redirect from clootie rug to that page. Having done that, I was bold and turned this page into a disambiguation page. -- Colin°Talk 21:11, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
