This is your last and only warning. You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize a page, as you did with this edit to Mongolian cuisine. Tgeairn (talk) 03:57, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hi ElliotKovnick,

Please don't get discouraged by those two previous messages – some editors here are very concerned about the quality of the encyclopedia, and they sometimes go overboard trying to protect it from malicious contributors. Your edits to Mongolian cuisine were definitely not vandalism, though! Thank you for contributing :)

Do you happen to have any written or online sources handy for the additions you're making to the article? It would be great if you could cite your sources! Otherwise, they look to other editors like original research, which we unfortunately can't accept here. If you're having trouble with formatting or anything else, you could give me the list of references (with all the usual information that would go into the bibliography of an academic paper – title, author, publisher, date, etc.) and I could help you work them into the page. You can leave me a message on my talk page and I'd be happy to assist you. Thanks again for your contributions and I hope you'll have patience with the sometimes tedious process and stick around!
