Talk:Sompot Chong Kben

Regarding this article's problem
Some of the claims are cited, but these are from laymen's websites. I believe it contains original research, for example, " References to most Khmer elders told a legend related to this garment; it said that a long time ago, the Khmer people worn Sampot Chang Kben, followed by Indian." The opening passage is very inappropriate, for example, "It is the preferred choice of clothing for women of upper and middle classes for daily wear." --Dara (talk) 06:37, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

Proposed name change
I propose to change the name of this article. The present name, "Chang kben", appears to be a mishmash of the Khmer name សំពត់ចងក្បិន which roughly transliterates to "sampot changkben", dropping  "sampot" for some reason. The Thai name โจงกระเบน has an RTGS transliteration, "chong kraben", which in addition to being pronounceable, at least has the imprimatur of the RTGS standard. (To my knowledge, Khmer has no equivalent language standards body.) Searches of both "Chang kben" and "chong kraben" turn up many more and better references for the latter formulation. At present the (poorly-written) article cites only sketchy Cambodian citations which I plan to replace with better references, which mostly happen to be Thai-related. This will change the tone of the article from Khmer to Thai. Please sound off if for some reason I should not proceed. Seligne (talk) 08:00, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
