...And that is the best Wiki entry ever!BaHaReep07:46, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
I don't actually know the proper procedure for adding a source (I only ever read Wiki, usually), but out of curiosity I did a search and found a Bangkok Post newspaper article that mentions the "Tom Yum Goong crisis" by name:http:// bangkokpost /news/investigation/19305/the-difficult-path-to-the-recovery-in-isan.-Dorchadas, 02:30, 17 January 2011—Precedingunsignedcomment added by61.114.216.102(talk)
According to the article, Tom Yum Nam Khon is a less popular sub-variety of Tom Yum that includes coconut milk. However, in your photos you appear not have made this distinction, as both the photos are captioned simply as "Prawn Tom Yum" but the on the right one clearly contains coconut milk, while the left one is (more authentically) clear.

Transcription
editShould actually be Tom Yam if transliterated correctly (according to theRoyal Thai General System of Transcription.perhaps Tom Yum could redirect to Tom Yam instead of vice versa?davidsetagaya
- I think "Tom yum" has pretty much become English now; it's a far more popular spelling, and more likely to be pronounced (kinda) correctly.Jpatokal03:25, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
- Fully agree with User:davidsetagaya. I consulted with Thai University teachers regarding spellings and, according to them, old spellings are to be slowly replaced by the Royal System.Xufanc(talk)02:53, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
- I also am for changing the article to "Tom yam". The Royal Thai General System of Transcription is the official system used for Thai transcriptions, just asPinyinis the official way for transcribingStandard Chinese.The English wikipedia article for the capital of China for instance, is namedBeijing,conforming to the official transcription system for Chinese, instead of Peking as was commonly used in English. -Takeaway(talk)17:00, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

If there are no serious objections, I will soon proceed to rename this article totom yam,following theRoyal Thai General System of Transcription.-Takeaway(talk)01:12, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- Serious objection.WP:COMMONNAMEstates that we must use the most common name, and in English, it's tom yum. 02:31, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
- I followed the procedure as mentioned in WP:COMMONNAME, using a google book search and setting it to search for English language publications, with the following search string: "tom yum" -wikipedia -tony-jaa -film -inauthor: "Books, LLC"; and the same string but then with "tom yam" (The "-tony-jaa -film" is to exclude the immensely popular Thai film "Tom yum goong" ). The result was 1,850 hits for "tom yum", and 1,470 hits for "tom yam". Although more hits were indeed found for "tom yum", the difference is not overwhelmingly huge. I discovered that the main English language guidebooks (Lonely Planet, Rough Guide, Frommer's and Footprint) use the established systematic transcription system, as laid down in the Royal Thai General System of Transcription, and write "tom yam". I find it difficult to state what exactly is the established common name in this case, and therefore would opt for the "official" transcription. -Takeaway(talk)01:52, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
- I fully agree withTakeaway;the article should be named "tom yam". Those who defend a variety of different spellings for the Thai script should state clearly what is exactly achieved by ignoring RGTS transcription. In the scripts of languages of other ASEAN countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines that 'u' is misleading and confusing, as it would be in many European languages.(Xufanc(talk)00:29, 6 June 2013 (UTC))

Images not consistent with article
editThe lede of the article states that tom yum is a clear soup, though the only images shows are of the coconut-milky tom yung khon variety. I would think it might benefit the article to source an appropriate image of basic tom yam.50.174.135.49(talk)18:49, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
