• @Nearlyevil665:I've added some references to the article. I took keen interest after seeing the notice bacause this desert is very popular here in Ghana and finding citations should have been easier. Perhaps, the one who started the page is still new to "article creation". Well, I've added references including news related sources. Ibdawud (talk) 15:03, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: Thank you. Instead of withdrawing, I will let a more experienced user determine if said sources are enough to warrant for notability. nearlyevil665 15:08, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Reply: Sure! Ibdawud (talk) 15:37, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • Keep, the article has been improved. Aside from that, the dessert is a notable one in Ghana and needs to be further improved. Ampimd (talk) 23:59, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: Is there actually significant coverage in reliable sources for the topic to pass WP:GNG? Right now, the article itself fails WP:NOTHOWTO as essentially a recipe with overcite from some non-RSes and passing mentions. This article probably counts as significant coverage in a secondary reliable source, but are there others? — MarkH₂₁^talk 23:41, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: Article has been improved and sources now have been added to support the article. So, I vote keep per WP:HEY. DocFreeman24 (talk) 04:16, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment If there isn't much more to add to this article, then perhaps it could be merged to Kenkey. (I'm not voting merge as I don't know enough to say that's the right option.) If it isn't merged or deleted, then I think there should be a mention of this variant in, and a link from, the Kenkey article. Regards, BennyOnTheLoose (talk) 14:37, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak keep: I've cleaned up some of the WP:NOTHOWTO recipe issues. The subject probably barely passes WP:GNG based on this academic journal article and this local news article. — MarkH₂₁^talk 01:09, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
