Trepak‎ edit

I reverted the edit for two reasons: 1: in the context of the dance itself, it is a very obscure appearance and 2:it wasn't cited.

For the citations, check out WP:Cite which should have what you need. My personal preference is to use these templates but that's just me. Remember, it has to be from a WP:Reliable source.

I can't really help with the obscurity. I hope this helps. Good luck and happy editing. Toddst1 (talk) 15:19, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Oh, and by the way, please don't be discouraged. Most folks' first edits have at least 1 or two problems. Let me know if I can help. Toddst1 (talk) 15:20, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
