– Dish is always discussed in the plural. Redirect blocking. UserTwoSix (talk) 02:35, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dicklyon: I think personal anecdotes can be mentioned, but they're not good evidence for opposing or agreeing. Fredlesaltique (talk) 01:21, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. Just trying to point out that the singular is normal enough, not exceptional, in my experience. You can decide your own favorite combination. Dicklyon (talk) 02:40, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. This isn't a case of linguistic absence of the singular. There's no singular form of pass the scissors or pull up your pants; In each case the singular would have a significantly different meaning... well, there's a recent minority use of pant in advertising but it isn't yet common. But enchilada is perfectly good and clear English, as in Who would like the last Enchilada?. Perhaps WP:NCPLURAL needs some clarification on this point but I think that's already the intention.

  • Oppose because nom is mistaken; the dish is NOT "always discussed in the plural". See ngrams. —В²C 10:01, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
