Hello, Jyu331, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Elysia 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.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:48, 27 January 2020 (UTC)Reply


Editing an existing article instead of creating a new one

edit

Hi, I'm not sure what your plans are, but instead of creating a new article, I think you should edit the existing articles Healthy diet or Mediterranean diet. Wikipedia policies are that we should have one article per topic. If you create an article that pretty much duplicates an existing article, it will likely get merged into Healthy diet or deleted. Also, take care that you are following rules about editing medically relevant content. Review our training here as a refresher. You'll want to avoid primary sources, like the ones you're using in the section "Science and Studies behind diets". Instead, use systematic reviews or guidance from major respected organizations like the World Health Organization, CDC, or American Heart Association. Let me know if you have questions.

Please read the above section

edit

Do not create a new article with your given topic. Please edit an existing article. We do not have comparison articles like this (there is no article for "Nike vs Adidas", "Strawberries vs blueberries", or things of that nature.) I have moved your content and you can find it here: User:Jyu331/Mediterranean Diets vs Vegan Diets. Elysia (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:14, 13 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
