Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Frikandel, please cite a reliable source for your addition. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. - Takeaway (talk) 09:06, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Frikandel. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. - Takeaway (talk) 23:12, 17 November 2011 (UTC)

Hello DutchYankee. If you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Frikandel, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:
 * 1) editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
 * 2) participating in deletion discussions about articles related to you, your organization or its competitors; and
 * 3) linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Spam).

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.
