Merging
I suggest merging Roti canai and Roti prata since they're almost the same thing. But don't merge into Paratha, because the Malayan variety is distinct enough for its own article. Clayoquot Sound 04:55, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- roti canai/prata is not the same as this article paratha. It is however the Malayan adaptation and the exact same as Parotta 116.87.59.58 (talk) 09:07, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
Unsourced material
I removed a dormant fact that has been requesting a reference since September 2007. If nobody has found one thus far, it requires deletion. If anybody can find a reference, feel free to reinstate one with it. I have also added a citation needed marker to the section on Western consumption and time management. Please add a reference in here too or it will have to be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.148.228.131 (talk) 23:19, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

The paratha was first conceived in the ancient Punjab region, but soon became popular all over India (and even current Pakistan),
"and even current Pakistan"? well duh, it hasn;t been long since pakistan seprated from india. surely it should be obvious that they will have siomilar food 170.115.248.20 (talk) 21:04, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
