[edit] Dixie Chili and Deli

A local chili restaurant in Kentucky. I cannot think of a reason why this would be notable. GabrielF 03:33, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

  • Strong merge Cheap Redirect to Cincinnati chili, a notable chili variation. Notable to fans of the style of Chilli, and a plausible search term. However, any info can be covered in that article. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 13:37, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
    • Keep per Rohirok, as it is quite significant in the development of the chili sytle, and merge per Rohirok if not kept. I't be nice to have the history kept for future use and for incorporation into the main article on the chili style if it is decided that the restaurant chain does not deserve its own article. Personally, I have always toyed with the notion of bringing Cincinnati chili to feature status, and I would hate to lose this info. youngamerican (ahoy-hoy) 21:32, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep I am a Cincinnatian. Dixie is not a single restaurant, but a chain of restaurants in the area, much like Skyline Chili. Though now a smaller chain than Skyline, Dixie predates Skyline by 20 years, and is a contemporary of Empress Chili, where this style of chili was invented. Consequently, its history is an important part of the development of Cincinnati chili, a distinct and notable regional cuisine. If the Dixie article is not kept, I vote that it be Merged with the Cincinnati chili article. There is encyclopedia-worthy information in this article. Rohirok 16:14, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge with Cincinnati chili. Is it possible to get Cincinatti chili in Manhattan? it sounds yummy Bwithh 17:13, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge to Cincinnati chili, since I just now realized we have that article. Now I'm hungry... --Coredesat 21:23, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep if Rohirok is correct then I think this deserves to say. (Never heard of Cincinnati chili but it sounds good so I'm gonna try it sometime.) Viridae 00:15, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Merge as per other suggestions. From the material in the article as it now stands, there isn't enough info for this article to be anything but a stub but given its historical contributions to chili (sorry, let me stop chuckling) it should be mentioned there. Janet13 05:41, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep all articles related to Cincinnati-style chili. I live in Cleveland, and there's a Skyline Chili here too. GilliamJF 22:49, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Strong Keep This is part of the "Cincinnati Style Chili" family an important regional favorite. Most out of towners look for a "Cincinnati Style Chili" restaurant to try during their visit to the Greater Cincinnati Area. My co-workers, in Northern Ohio order this chili on line.

  • Keep or merge with Cincinnati chili as a last resort. Yamaguchi先生 07:56, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
