[edit] Merge all Indian Coffee House

Why do we need separate article for each branch of Indian Coffee House (ICH as commonly known). AFIK all are employee owned and managed by the Workers' Co-Operative Society, as "Indian Coffee House" is registered name. All the ones I have been has same staff uniform, emblem etc. It is there in many cities/states of India. And more in communist strong areas. Many of the one in Keralam are in/near by Universities or colleges and discussion/meeting point of students.

From http://wikitravel.org/en/Calcutta#Drink I feel ICH Calcutta is the same as http://www.indiancoffeehouse.com/history.htm

So we should merge "Indian Coffee House, Kolkata" back to "Indian Coffee House, Kerala" to form "Indian Coffee House". --Bijee 03:16, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree - people are more interested in the chain and the company. Specific references to individual coffee houses can be placed at the end. I believe there are more than a hundred coffee houses, so the sooner this is merged the better. Bcnstony 23:23, 17 December 2006 (UTC)

I disagree - the names may be the same but they have very different histories.

Agree - sections can be added to the existing article. Nobody is going to look these articles up on their own under their current names. Jouster 00:51, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
