Your revert on "Kosher salt"
You reverted my recent edits on the article Kosher salt.

Please do not revert without providing a reason. If you see a problem with the content of the edit, let's discuss this on Talk:Kosher salt - or just add your own edit on top of mine, like we all do on Wikipedia.

I see that you added references for the claim that iodine can alter the taste, so I assume that is the reason for the revert. You also reverted another edit of mine, which is not about the taste of iodine, so I have reinstated that edit.

In future, please keep in mind that you need to provide a reason for a revert, except in cases of obvious vandalism. Also, IMHO it's generally better to manually edit instead of reverting, as it's easy to revert too much, as you seem to have done. Thanks!

And now I'll go dig up some references about whether iodine can really be tasted...

 * In future please tag claims you question with this template and a date instead of just deleting the claim. This gives other editors time to notice and respond and not have to work digging through other changes just to cite. It will always be faster & easier to revert and insert the cite, especially if the requestor was the last editor - which you were in this case. Your request to cite a claim about iodine bitterness was completed with three cites to books and/or research publications, therefore your edit was reverted and the references to cite the original claim inserted and noted in the edit change comments.

 * Okay, that makes sense. I'll use the template in the future.
 * Please note that your last revert of my edit was wrong though - you reverted my revert, without noticing that I only restored the one of my edits that has nothing to do with bitterness of iodine, and is instead about the different densities (original edit). I have reinstated that particular edit. While I understand why you felt the need to revert my edit, in the future please be careful not to blindly revert multiple edits if you only disagree with some of them.
 * And if you disagree with that edit, feel free to add the "citation needed" template :-). Thanks!
