Isan[edit]
Lovingly nurtured self-nom. Mostly my work, but I've had useful comments on peer review. Markalexander100 07:10, 22 Aug 2004 (UTC)

- Support.
While I would like to see more information about the food and exactly how it is different from Thai and Laotian food, I certainly wouldn't want to hold up this from being a featured article- Taxman 14:41, Aug 23, 2004 (UTC)- I've added a bit more on that. Markalexander100 03:21, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- I like the addition. Also, I've heard that street venders selling a wide array of food is common in Thailand. And even locals buy food this way, not just tourists. Is that more or less common in Isan? I was thinking less because there may be less large cities in Isan, but the article didn't mention any cities. Are there any significant cities in Isan? What proportion of people live in cities vs rural villages, etc. - Taxman 15:35, Aug 25, 2004 (UTC)
- I've put a bit about cities and populations in the Demographics section, although the names and figures from different years are always going to be a bit confusing. Yes, Isan has the food stalls too, at least in the towns. Markalexander100 03:00, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)
