Mangel Beet
I don't know if you were aware, but Mangelwurzel seems to refer to the same vegetable as Mangel beets. I suggest merging the latter into the former. LWG Complaints here 21:18, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Well they're different, Mangelwurzel is the genre of beet, whereas Mangels are a different type of yellow beet. DoranM (talk) 21:20, 21 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Mangelwurzel are a specific type of non-red beet, and are, according to Wright, the same as mangolds and mangel beets. Wright, Clifford A. (2001) Mediterranean vegetables: a cook's ABC of vegetables and their preparation page 52. --Bejnar (talk) 22:00, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Long explanations are not appropriate. That is for article pages. Piping is not used on disambiguation pages. --Bejnar (talk) 21:36, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Brendan Blumer


The article Brendan Blumer has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners or ask at Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the prod blp tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can when you are ready to add one. The Elves Of Dunsimore (talk) 01:38, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
