I was asked by Wikipedia (probably because of my chatroom name) to contribute an article on meaning of Ampherlaw. As I am 5th generation Aussie & it is quite interesting bit of Scots history & we once were a lowland family of some power before the clearances, I did.
I know how to edit an article, but I have found it hard to find how to start from scratch.
If I look up my saved article on Go, it is there but if I look on Search - I get this strange message & most people use Search as it allows more vague terms. The message is -

Please help me. I am feeling weak at the thought of moving on to citations, or inserting pictures if I can't even write an article & due to very poor vision I find the editing marks very hard to decipher on the screen.
Thanks, Alison alitosca@optusnet.com.au
