Hello, I'm 71.241.206.249. I noticed that you made a change to an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 71.241.206.249 (talk) 12:49, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Pastirma with this edit. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. DVdm (talk) 12:54, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to Pastirma with this edit, you may be blocked from editing. DVdm (talk) 12:55, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Note. Please do not edit the opening statement of the lead of the Pastirma article. The etymology section Pastirma says that the word originates from Turkish. If you have conflicting information about that, open a new section on the article talk page Talk:Pastirma and discuss with the other contributors. Good luck. - DVdm (talk) 13:53, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Bastirma
You may be correct that παστός is the etymon of bastırma/παστρουμάς/pastrami, however you have provided no evidence for this. Please recall Wikipedia's policy "Verifiability, not truth". Can you find solid sources for this? The fact that παστός is a well-documented Ancient Greek word for "salted", even if it's semantically consistent, isn't enough. Also, if the etymon is παστός, where did the "-ρουμάς" part come from? --Macrakis (talk) 21:00, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
