  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

  Hello, I'm Belbury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Grilled cheese, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Belbury (talk) 09:11, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Biscuit (bread), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Sigma440 (talk) 09:54, 28 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Grilled cheese recipe

edit

The source I found at https://archive.org/details/b20392758/page/822/mode/2up doesn't describe cheese being grilled between two slices of toasted bread, but cheese on top of a single slice, which would be cheese on toast rather than a grilled cheese sandwich.

If you had a different Mrs Beeton recipe in mind, please be specific about it. Belbury (talk) 11:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

You were looking at the wrong recipe. The recipe is 1641 Sharnadd (talk) 13:24, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, can you give a link or a title for the recipe that you mean? Belbury (talk) 13:36, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Its cheese sandwich. You have already provided the link. It's a few pages back on the book link you provided Sharnadd (talk) 03:55, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you, I see it now! I've added it back to the article and updated the description and reference. Belbury (talk) 08:00, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Great thanks Sharnadd (talk) 08:28, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Fyrael. I noticed that you recently removed content from Ice cream parlor without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. -- Fyrael (talk) 09:20, 22 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at fried chicken, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. oknazevad (talk) 08:10, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

its already citied lower down on the pahe..does it need to be cities twice Sharnadd (talk) 13:04, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Changing it to Scotland only ignores the sourced part about west African traditions that also contributed to the specific form of fried chicken that is the subject of the article, which wholly originated in what's now the slither US. It's not only overstating the Scottish contribution, it's erasing the African contribution. Frankly, it's whitewashing. That's not acceptable. oknazevad (talk) 17:16, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
true as the page is labeled fried chicken and not southern fried chicken I will remove place of origin as America as that is not true. Yes you should not ignore that the dish was first created in Scotland and then changed over time in the USA. Sharnadd (talk) 17:47, 23 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Frying chicken is hardly original to Scotland. Yes, there were African antecedents of similar age. Because they have chickens in Africa. And have since long before the imperialistic colonizers came along in the 1800s. oknazevad (talk) 20:59, 24 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
It was first created in Scotland. That is where the first record of it is from. Acknowledging where it comes from in no way takes away from slaves adjusting a recipe that was brought over to America Sharnadd (talk) 10:21, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
