Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Flip-flops, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 08:40, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Your addition (reversed) did not make clear that in India a mother may disciple a child by throwing a chappal (flip-flop). And that this has become a saying "Flying chappal received" to acknowledge that a person's behavior was wrong. Besides better writing, what was missing was a reference. Wikipedia requires that all factual statements are verified by references. I added India content with a ref (also for Latino and Filipino cultures.) David notMD (talk) 11:26, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
