Hello, I'm Chiswick Chap. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Mediterranean cuisine, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Hi, I appreciate you have personal experience of the situation, but I have to draw your attention to Wikipedia's rules, of which the key one here is that we rely entirely on reliable sources such as textbooks and journals. We are not allowed to make use of editors' personal knowledge, which is considered "Original Research" as it cannot be verified by any other editors. Please follow the terms I have linked here and study the Wikipedia policies carefully. These policies govern everything we write here, and it is not possible to edit Wikipedia without them. Many thanks for your time. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:55, 28 March 2019 (UTC) Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:55, 28 March 2019 (UTC)

Cushitic in Egypt
Hello. Notice that you've been making some edits. It would be good to register an account! I'm writing here because I saw that you removed Egypt from the list of countries in which Cushitic languages are spoken. Someone else reverted that edit. I don't know the other party, but I'd like to avoid an edit war: The Beja language is spoken in Halayib and Shallatein. (I know this because I am a researcher who has studied this language; I've spoken it in Shallatein.) There's a significant chunk of ancient Egyptian vocabulary in Beja, so that particular Cushitic language has probably been spoken in Egypt for longer than Arabic.
