Name: "Native Hawaiian" or just "Hawaiian"?
I'd like to suggest (yet another) page move. According to references in the article (especially the Laudan book), poke in its current form is a modern Hawaiian creation, distinct from the native Hawaiian fish dishes that it was originally based on. Therefore, I think it would be more appropriate to have the article at Poke (Hawaiian dish) rather than Poke (Native Hawaiian dish). Thoughts? Wikiacc (¶) 17:01, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
Similar dishes
Wouldn't it make sense to include chirashizushi in the list of similar dishes? I think it is closer to poke than some of the dishes listed. Westwind273 (talk) 14:51, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

Poke (dish) → Poke (Hawaiian dish) – There are the Polynesian dessert po'e, also known as poke, and poke cake. Wouldn't it be preferable to use a more specific disambiguation? ~2026-25093-71 (talk) 12:54, 24 April 2026 (UTC) — Relisting.

- Support, undoing an undiscussed move from 2024. Retarget Poke (dish) to the dabpage Poke. 162 etc. (talk) 17:11, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
- Oppose. Po'e has like 15 hits a day and doesn't seem to be usually spelled "poke." Poke cake is not a "dish". Poke-the-Hawaiian-dish is 100x as notable as the competition regardless even if there was a risk of confusion, which there mostly isn't. SnowFire (talk) 14:46, 27 April 2026 (UTC)
- Support per nom. Clearly ambiguous. -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:02, 28 April 2026 (UTC)

- Oppose - seems like a case of WP:SMALLDETAILS. Neither of the others are solely known as Poke, and so the current natural disambiguation they've got is more than enough. We can have hatnotes for any further confusion. Turnagra (talk) 19:03, 15 May 2026 (UTC)
