Thai eggplant same as Lao eggplant?
After a quick search on google, it would seem that both Thai and Lao eggplants (now a separate article) are the same. If this is indeed the case, does anyone have a good suggestion for merging and also renaming both articles, so as to appease possible nationalistic feelings of both Laotians and Thais? Another quick search on google gave over 15,400 hits for "Thai eggplant" and 121 for "Lao eggplant". - Takeaway (talk) 15:43, 28 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I've looked through more of the "Lao eggplant" hits from google: many of the hits are mirrors of the wikipedia article "Lao eggplant" or mirrors of the wikipedia article "Thai eggplant" which also mentions "Lao eggplant". Some vegetable seed sites do mention both Lao and Thai eggplants but there seems to be some confusion as to how certain cultivars should be classified as sometimes they are classified on some sites as being Thai and on other sites as being Laotian. - Takeaway (talk) 17:34, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

I've copied the above text from the talkpage of Thai eggplant. - Takeaway (talk) 01:43, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
