Welcome!
Hello, Mlazarus14, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Hi! I wanted to respond on your talk page so it would be easier for you to keep all of the info in one place, as opposed to email.


 * Be careful of sentence structure. Don't use "and" at the start of a sentence. I've tweaked this sentence for you. The other writing is generally OK, but definitely be cautious. One method I use when I write articles is to look at how other articles, especially on similar-ish topics. Greek mythology is a good article to review since it's on a relatively similar topic.
 * I can't check the sourcing, but make sure that you're only summarizing what's in the source material. I don't really think that this is an issue, but wanted to say it just in case.

I think that you have a good grasp here and I absolutely love the topic you chose, since fairy tales and general folklore have a wealth of information about a society's culture, history, and beliefs. It was one of my favorite genres to read, along with mythology, when I was a kid and it led into some of my later interests in college. Heck, I still read these stories and research on them!
