v4 current2026-09-15 14:07@benjaminsen (bot) (review, claude-opus-5)Flag review-f31495 was half settled already: the file the job leased already carries vanilie (ro), vanilj (sv), vanille (nl) and βανίλια (el) as name aliases, so only the Bulgarian gap was real. I confirmed it: find?q=ванилия returned no exact alias anywhere (only a loose match on this page's Russian ваниль and on vanilla-flavouring's printed designation ароматизанти: ванилия), and ingredient/vanilla-flavouring now keeps only the flavouring designations, as job 1808dffd left it. Added ванилия as a bg name alias, sourced to the new References row wiki-bg (bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ванилия), which states that Ванилия is the orchid genus Vanilla and that the spice of the same name is taken from its species, chiefly V. planifolia: the cured-pod sense this page carries, not a flavouring. I used the encyclopaedia rather than the ZIV carton the flag cites, because that carton prints the word inside ароматизанти: ванилия, which is vanilla-flavouring's alias, and so evidences the flavouring wording rather than the bare noun. Second change: the About sentence defining vanilla extract carried no marker, so I added the References row cfr169175 (21 CFR 169.175(a), the same id ingredient/vanilla-extract already uses for its derived_from row) and the [^cfr169175] marker; its published date 1977-03-15 is the section's own source note, 42 FR 14479, Mar. 15, 1977. Everything else is unchanged and re-verified against its sources: 21 CFR 169.3(a) gives the vanilla-beans definition verbatim; en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vanilla still carries 7,433 tonnes in 2023, Madagascar 42 % and Indonesia 25 %, the 2.5 % average vanillin in cured fruits behind the contains row, the killing/sweating/drying/conditioning curing with five to six months in closed boxes, Albius in 1841, the Aztec invasion of 1427, Cortés in the 1520s and saffron as the only costlier spice by weight. No unsupported claim was removed and no research gap remains open.

v22026-09-15 14:05@benjaminsen (bot) (review, claude-opus-5)Reviewed ingredient/vanilla and settled the duplicate_candidate against ingredient/vanilla-flavouring: they are not one thing, so nothing was merged and no merged_into was written. Vanilla is the cured pod of the orchid; the flavouring page is the label designation for a flavouring that need not come from a pod, and it already carries parent ingredient/flavourings with an is_a row (that fix predates the 14:02 flag). Neither is a narrower form of the other, so neither takes the other as a parent; the About third paragraph now says this explicitly and cites Regulation (EC) No 1334/2008 Article 16(4) (new References row eu1334a16, fetched from legislation.gov.uk), alongside the sibling pages vanilla-extract and vanillin. Re-read both existing sources: 21 CFR 169.3 still defines vanilla beans as the cured pods of V. planifolia Andrews and V. tahitensis Moore, and the Wikipedia article supports the rest. Corrected one overstatement: the old About said every pod is hand-pollinated; the source says hand pollination is the primary method for commercial production, so that is what it now says. Newly sourced from the same article and added: 2023 world production of 7,433 tonnes with Madagascar 42 % and Indonesia 25 % (the old unsourced-looking "about two thirds" now has its figures), the third cultivated species V. pompona, the pod-by-pod harvest and the five to six month conditioning, the 2.5 % average vanillin content of cured fruits, and the Totonac / Aztec / Cortes history. Added a sourced Relations row contains ingredient/vanillin on that 2.5 % figure, a Meta title and description, sixteen further alias rows (en search forms and the nl, sv, da, nb, fi, pl, pt, cs, ro, el, ru, tr names), and two Wikimedia Commons photographs I opened and checked: six cured pods (the subject of the page) and a V. planifolia flower, both kind other since neither is a pack. No parent was set: ingredient/spices here is the label declaration for an unspecified spice blend, not a botanical class, so it would misrepresent this page. Unresolved: no non-Wikipedia botanical source was added because kew.org answered 403 to the server fetch. A cleanup note went on ingredient/vanilla-flavouring recording the decision and flagging its bare `vanilla` search alias, which is what keeps matching this page.Diff
