First Paragraph
editHi, been reading a lot of articles about these traditional japanese sweets, and I have found this one to be the only one that I can not figure out what it actually is. I think the first paragraph is very vague and never actually describes the food directly. Especially this sentence: "They are boiled together again and kneaded." They who? What? Just a heads up I suppose, to someone that does know about this food. Eddie mars (talk) 15:23, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
Title Change
editI think the title and all uses of the word in [romaji] should be spelled "manjyu" with a "y". Or is there a historical precedent that prevents this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.233.176.38 (talk) 04:41, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm not aware of any system of Japanese romanization that would render じゅう as "jyu". Hepburn renders it as "jū" and Kunrei-shiki as "zyuu." English Wikipedia favors Hepburn, and the title of this article is definitely the correct Hepburn romanization of the word. Mtp85 (talk) 23:18, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Chinese also?
editAren't 饅頭 also Chinese steamed buns, eaten by the northern Chinese? There should be a disambiguation page about savoury 饅頭 and sweet 饅頭. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.199.110.226 (talk • contribs). 16 January 2005
Warlords cutting off heads
editFirst of all the English doesn't make sense; second, lamb chops? Sounds like utter nonsense to me since lamb chops aren't eaten in Japan and presumably weren't in the past. I'm going to delete this stuff completely.--DannyWilde 23:25, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
Merger proposal
editThis proposal is not actually by me, but by User:Stevey7788. That person has suggested that the relatively new article Usukawa Manju be merged into this article on Manjū. The standard procedure is to have a discussion here, and if others agree to the merge, or there are no comments for 30 days, the merge can be done by Stevey or anyone else. Thanks. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 23:05, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
- Support - (ec) was just setting up the templates for the same reason. The new article appears to be a subtopic of this one, with little additional material, and should be merged. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 23:08, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
- Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 20:54, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
