I do not see a compelling reason for merging. The practice on Wikipedia generally seems to prefer many parallel articles from different ethnic or national backgrounds that are linked by "See also". We already have "See also" cross links in both churchkhela and soutzoukos and, in my personal experience, it will be very disturbing to a reader who looks for "churchkhela" (say) to end up on a page with a totally different title. I vote for keeping the status quo. --Zlerman (talk) 01:22, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Though there are many cases where local variants are given their own articles, that is not Wikipedia policy. And in all the important cases, this is not what happens: there is not a separate article on "wurst", "salsiccia", "saucisse", etc. but one article on sausage. Even for "sujuk"-style sausages (for which soutzoukos is named), we have one article sujuk, not separate articles for sucuk, суджук, سجق, σουτζούκι, etc. Remember, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, which organizes things, not names of things. --macrakis (talk) 23:16, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Agree it should be merged. Otherwise there should also be a separate article for Armenian rojik. 75.57.135.164 (talk) 12:45, 30 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
