Pamirdin

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Unverifiable and looks to be non-notable. No serious references since 2009, search results turn up nothing other than information mirrored from Wikipedia. Elli (talk &#124; contribs) 03:33, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Uyghur cuisine (with the history preserved under the redirect), where pamirdin is already mentioned, per Deletion policy. Here are two sources about the topic: In "Food" section in the "East Turkestan" entry, the book notes: "Other specialties include ... pamirdin, baked pastries filled with minced lamb, carrots, and onion". The article notes: "Silk Road Garden is a restaurant cooking very specialized and otherwise hard-to-find Chinese-Islamic foods like pamirdin (baked pies with lamb and vegetables) and xurpa (lamb soup)."Cunard (talk) 05:29, 17 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Comment: Looks delicious and, as pies go, not toooo unhealthy.   I was intrigued by a pie that comes from a region of China for which we have been given a translation not in Mandarin but in what looks like Russian.   Then I looked at a map and realised that maybe the folks in the XUAR still prefer to communicate in Russian.


 * The solution for the "keep or delete" discussion depends on whether you think we will ever find someone with enough Russian or Chinese to find sources and build it into a more substantial wiki-entry.  There are lots of folks across China, Europe and America who speak both Chinese and English fluently, but I don't know how many of them also take time to contribute to wikipedia.   Writing as someone who spends a lot of time eating and even more time thinking about food, I guess that if pressed I would vote for keep in the hope / belief that sooner or later someone will turn up with the necessary language skills to build it into something better.   But I agree that if you need to restrict your search to (1) what online google searching produces from here and (2) stuff written in English, there does appear to be a serious shortage of accessible sources.

 * Redirect per Cunard. It's not helpful to have a one line stub article that is redundant to Uyghur cuisine. Spudlace (talk) 03:17, 19 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Uyghur cuisine, can find sources to meet WP:V but they are not in-depth enough to need a separate article. Content is already in the other article so no need for merge. Jumpytoo Talk 21:22, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
