Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I edit Wikipedia too, under the username Funnyfarmofdoom. I noticed you recently removed some content from an article without explaining why. In the future, it would be really helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page. Wikipedia is written by people like you and me, and we care a lot about the quality of the encyclopedia. Please help us make it better! Thanks, Funnyfarmofdoom _{(talk to me)} 22:02, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Following up on the above notice, thank you for removing[1] the obvious vandalism from Passover Seder Plate, and explaining your edit on the talk page of the article. This is much appreciated. Unfortunately your repair was not entirely successful in restoring the article to its pre-vandalised state, because the prior editor had two edits making unconstructive changes [2][3]. For future reference, it is better to deal with vandalism by checking the article's page history to determine how it appeared before it was vandalised. You can then restore the whole article, or the relevant part of it, to an appropriate earlier version. If you simply delete the visible vandalism then any content removed or overwritten by the vandal is lost. See How to deal with vandalism for details. Thank you.--Arxiloxos (talk) 23:09, 8 November 2011 (UTC)
