[edit] Noodle/Spätzle

I have undone your reversion of my edit. You restored the phrasing "a noodle from Southern Germany, much favoured in the Schwabia region of Baden-Wuerttemberg and Bavaria", which is both factually inaccurate/misleading and in violation of NOR.

  • Spätzle are not "from Southern Germany". Their origin is not known and is a matter of debate - especially between Germans and Austrians. Also, from a technical point of view, they have existed since at least 1725 and were, therefore, in existence before Germany itself existed.
  • Unless you can provide a source, the phrasing “much favoured in the Schwabia region” is a violation of WP:NOR, “favoured” is a peacock word and the phrase, in general, is just bad writing (favoured by whom? how much are they favoured? etc.)

Further, "no need for revision" is not reasonable grounds for a revert. Ɛƚƈơƅƅơƚɑ talk 21:39, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

I’ve replied on my talk page to keep the conversation in one place. If, going forward, you want to go back and forth, that’s ok, too. Ɛƚƈơƅƅơƚɑ talk 23:29, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
