Refer to this page from a Slovenian restaurant, where Gibanica is also listed as Serbian. No one is trying to belittle your Prekmurska gibanica in this page for mentioning Gibanica Serbian origins. At the end of the day, even if these are related, Prekmurska gibanica is still different. Therefore, I would appreciate if you stop questioning everything, Duja. Asterion 21:29, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- I question the commonality of the knowledge. Why is the page from a Slovenian restaurant relevant for anything? And why do you assume my origins?
- Now, Gibanica is indeed one of symbols of Serbian cuisine. It is very often related with Serbia indeed. It doesn't prove that it actually originates in Serbia. Cf. Kajmak. But Banitsa is basically the same thing, and an obvious cognate? Why you insist on inserting so strong statements? Who did perform the research on the origin? Sorry, I can't accept blank statements like that. Duja 21:49, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

- I realised you removed the Serbian Cyrillic name of the related dishes in the Prekmurska gibanica article, so I assumed you took offence somehow. Apologies for any misunderstanding. I agree up to a certain point with your reasoning (in the same way that it would be silly to claim that Šljivovica is a drink from a single country). I would suggest a NPOV rephrasing as "Gibanica is a traditional Serbian dish" and then list any related dishes further down. Your thoughts? Asterion 22:06, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- I apologize if I was harsh in my reply... I got a bit annoyed on other things. Yes, that was my intention too, to make the statement about the origin in a less direct and more NPOV manner; I doubt there is a real research about the origin (and it doesn't matter much anyway). Thanks. Duja 22:24, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- Btw, since you mentioned Prekmurska gibanica, just now I realized that it was the thing that got me annoyed :-D (just I forgot about it in the meantime)... it seems that some guys would even write English in Cyrillic. In capitals, preferrably. Duja 22:30, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- No problem, mate. I know what wikistress is. I've been there myself ;-) Cheers, Asterion 22:35, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
