I will admit up front that I don't edit food-related articles so I don't really know what sourcing should look like in these. I assume history articles/books would be preferable, and I didn't see any of those. The best I see is these two recipes from the New York Times and the Food Network. Neither discuss history at all but I would think they'd be the most reliable you'd get, so maybe they're good for something. Otherwise I don't see what would make this keepable unless there are some other rules in an SNG that I'm unaware of. QuietHere (talk) 03:20, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Crumble. The origins of the fruit dish in WW2 rationing can no doubt be reliably sourced, if not a. dish with apples specifically. Jfire (talk) 05:29, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Crumble as above. The general article is perfectly valid, but we don't need an article on each individual variety (even though apple crumble is by far the best-known and a very common British dish). -- Necrothesp (talk) 11:18, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge as above. I was surprised that I couldn't find any reliable sources to support an standalone article - given that it is a popular British dessert - but I couldn't. The best I could find were [1], [2] (both by the same author), [3] (mainly just a list of recipes), and [4] (which is pretty brief). There's something here, but I'm not convinced that there's enough to justify having an article on both crumble and apple crumble without those two largely duplicating each other.
