Dutch origin?[edit]

Did anything other than the name have a Dutch origin? Neither coconuts nor rice grow well in north west Europe. Kevin McE (talk) 00:03, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest I had the same question myself. What I assumed was that the Sri Lankans might have taken a Dutch dish and substituted their own ingredients for it or something like that. Still, I couldn't find any sources that explicitly mention this and the available ones say that it came from the Dutch, so I left it as it is. Chamal ^T•C 00:46, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So the unsourced and illogical claim remains in the article, and is to appear on the main page? Kevin McE (talk) 10:42, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The claims in the article are perfectly sourced. It's only your assumptions and mine that are absent from the article, the inclusion of which would be original research. Chamal ^T•C 10:53, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
