AFD'ed to see if this article meets WP:NOTGUIDE policy. Article is unreferenced and reads like recipe. GainLine ♠ ♥ 14:45, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep I added one reference, there are hundreds more available.[http://books.google.com/books?q=dhokla&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&tab=np] If the recipe part is deemed offensive to WP sensibilities, then it can be removed.

  • Keep I normally stay away from food articles, but there's more to the Dhokla than a recipe. It's a staple breakfast and snack item in Western India and that aspect should be added to the article. There was also some extremely basic non-recipe info in earlier revs of the article, and that needs to be added back in. -SpacemanSpiff (talk) 16:20, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep this is a very notable food, the article needs work but that is not a reason to delete. Thryduulf (talk) 11:24, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep Meets notability requirements. I found and added a photo. And, yes, the article does need work, but that's not a reason to delete, as noted by Thryduulf.Geoff T C 00:48, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Keep I see no violation of WP:NOTGUIDE, perhaps the issue was easily fixed. Articles are not deleted for being unreferenced either, see WP:ATD Power.corrupts (talk) 22:42, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
