I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Thank you for creating the article. It looks a fine work on the whole, except, I must say, it left me more confused than enlightened. It is not clear what the connection is, and the distinctions are, between Jalebi and Zalabiyeh. I am getting the impression that Jalebi came from Zalabiyeh, but when you say "The fritter is very common in the Indian subcontinent...", it's probably about Jalebi, not Zalabiyeh, correct? Please clarify the history/current-status of the two and add Jalebi as an appropriate WP:Hatnote, not a "See also", if you can. Regards!. Usedtobecool☎️05:39, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There had been an effort to merge these two articles in 2011, and now it's confusing because we have information about this article on both pages. How would you feel about merging them? PigeonChickenFish (talk) 22:41, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The statement in question from the article: "In many Middle Eastern and North African countries, such as Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Tunisia, Algeria, Ethiopia, Egypt and also in Israel, they resemble spongy-cakes fried in oil." This has no citation, and for all of these countries this is not a true statement.
For example, in Turkey and Iran, Zalabiyeh (called Zoolbia in Iran, Zulbiye in Turkey) is a small knot shape in Turkey and in Iran a laced, funnel cake shape; and something resembling a "spongy-cakes fried in oil" would better describe a Tulumba in Turkey (called Bamiyeh in Iran) which can be confirmed with an image search. I suggest we remove this sentence since it sounds like original research. The image used on this article is labeled "Macedonian Fritters or Pitulici (Pitulitsi)" in commons and looks un-standard as Zalabiyeh.PigeonChickenFish (talk) 02:15, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The zalabiyeh in the picture looks nothing like the North African and Middle Eastern variety for sure. I think some editors just like to merge everything into one page, out of political correctness, at the expense of clarity. It's fine if articles repeat some info, as long as the subject and the scope are clear. --Ideophagous (talk) 05:08, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
