[edit] Move to krupuk
Whilst in principle, i agree with the move, I would hardly call the move or the chanes made to the article minor edits. I would have also liked to have had the opertunity to discuss this change3 before it was made.Georgeryall 15:57, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
- As per WP policy, we should use as our title the name the English-speaking world generally knows this food by. That is "shrimp cracker" or "prawn cracker." Badagnani 06:15, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

- If you want to keep this article as Prawn Cracker, then write it as it is. Prawn Cracker is a cracker made by a shrimp. That's what it means. So don't tell about other crackers made by non-shrimps, such as vegetable, fish, etc. Krupuk/kropok is actually a cracker, and prawn cracker is not equal with cracker. It's just a type of cracker. — Indon (reply) — 07:35, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Aren't kropeks the Indonesian ones though? In the UK they are generally known via Cantonese.--Josquius 23:42, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Prawn cracker is not equal with Kerupuk/Keropok
Prawn cracker is one of Kerupuk(s), but not all Kerupuk(s) are made of prawns. It's also stated in the article that some crackers were made of fruits and vegetables. So it is factual error and mislead readers. I suggest to move the article into Kerupuk or more general acceptable name of it. — Indon (reply) — 13:45, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
- that would make sense to me, as long as it was done in a way to preserve a description of the prawn cracker.Georgeryall 19:16, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
- Should we at least just generalize the title into, say Krupuk itself (considering that's the first term mentioned in the passage) ?
looking for reasons prawn crackers, papadams etc puff when deep fried
- Added that. The "dough" is quite firm, almost rubebry. That way, the air will expand but not escape during frying. Dysmorodrepanis 14:23, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] kerupuk emping?
There's no such thing as kerupuk emping,..... emping is emping and kerupuk is kerupuk --202.93.239.53 (talk) 07:41, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Split or move?
As mentioned above this is obviously not an article about prawn crackers. It's an article about the broader class of fried crackers (krupuk) which includes prawn crackers.
There's no requirement to wait for consensus for correcting obvious errors, and krupuk is a better title for this article as written, so I will move it there now.
I suggest that if it's agreed that Prawn cracker (a subtype of krupuk) deserves it's own article of that name, someone can split off the specific prawn cracker material to a new article. Please don't move an article which is not primarily about prawn crackers back to that title. Thanks. --Chriswaterguy talk 02:36, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
