Article on non-notable dumpling dish, there are hundred types of dim sum dumpling fillings and this is not a specialty of a region nor a famous dish of any restaurant. Content appears to be taken out of a cook book Sgnpkd (talk) 05:45, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep and rename to shark fin dumpling (魚翅餃). An alternative name is shark's fin dumpling, but I recommend shark fin dumpling to match the title of shark fin soup.

  The Chinese Wikipedia has an article about the shark fin dumpling at zh:魚翅餃.

  This paragraph from Sharkfin and prawn dumpling in superior soup convinced me that this article is about shark fin dumpling:

  The shark fin dumpling is a notable dim sum dish.
  
  Highlights from English-language sources
  
  Los Angeles magazine calls the shark fin dumpling a "high-end dim sum relic". The American Institute of Wine & Food says the shark fin dumpling "is offered in the better dim sum houses". Gourmet says the shark fin dumpling is a "large dumpling, which resembles a closed flower, opens up with a touch of a fork, spilling a fragrantly gingery ground pork, shrimp, and shark's fin mixture into the bland chicken broth". Chronicle Books says "These dumplings are shaped with a ridge on top that looks like a shark's fin, but do not actually contain shark meat."
