Hello, Dmastronardi, 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.

[edit]

Hi! I have some notes for you:

  • I've read that the Russian Fairy Tales were modeled after Grimm's Fairy Tales, so that may be the reason for comparisons. If this is accurate, it would be better to say that he modeled his book after the Grimm's book.
  • Be careful of grammar and style. Some of this feels a little too informal.
  • Quotes should be directly attributed to the person stating them.
  • With the list of stories, I think that it may be better to have those separate in another section, where the most major and well known stories are listed, perhaps separated by their author. I know that there's a big page of fairy tales in list form, so this may not be necessary to have. At the very most I'd limit this to the fairy tales that have articles. You can see a list here.

I think that you have a good start here, so a lot of this will be formatting and tweaking. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 18:45, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
