Wrong, coddled eggs are more similar to soft-[[boiled eggs]], i.e. usually cooked shell-on.--[[User:71.97.131.16|71.97.131.16]] 13:01, 21 June 2007 (UTC) |

I removed an image(File:Poached Eggs - Howrah 2015-04-26 8504.JPG) because it did not match it's description ("Simple poached eggs on boiling water.") Basically, it's clear from the image that the eggs are not "on boiling water" as described. They are probably on a plate (the top left and bottom right of the image seem to show decorative marking on the plate). |

I considered adding back the image, with a modified description, something along the lines of "Two chicken eggs poached in boiling water", but I notice that the eggs in this image might not be the best exemplar of the dish described in this article; I have no doubt this is an image of poached eggs, but they don't seem to exemplify the characteristic appearance portrayed in the other images(i.e. the tight encasement of an intact runny yolk in solid cooked egg white). The egg on the right seems to maybe have undercooked whites and the egg on the left looks like the yolk broke and mixed with the whites. |

I re-added the statement that in Indian English, "poached egg" means a fried egg. This is an international encyclopedia in which all English uses of a term are relevant, especially one that is used by a fifth of the population of the world. This is not trivia and it is not irrelevant. It belongs here. [[User:Acsenray|Acsenray]] ([[User talk:Acsenray|talk]]) 17:50, 4 September 2009 (UTC) |

[edit]
I removed an image(File:Poached Eggs - Howrah 2015-04-26 8504.JPG) because it did not match it's description ("Simple poached eggs on boiling water.") Basically, it's clear from the image that the eggs are not "on boiling water" as described. They are probably on a plate (the top left and bottom right of the image seem to show decorative marking on the plate).
I considered adding back the image, with a modified description, something along the lines of "Two chicken eggs poached in boiling water", but I notice that the eggs in this image might not be the best exemplar of the dish described in this article; I have no doubt this is an image of poached eggs, but they don't seem to exemplify the characteristic appearance portrayed in the other images(i.e. the tight encasement of an intact runny yolk in solid cooked egg white). The egg on the right seems to maybe have undercooked whites and the egg on the left looks like the yolk broke and mixed with the whites.
