Martin Nolan[edit]

Hi, Thom. To edit the article, click on the Edit tab at the very top of the page to see all the code and text. You can also click on the Edit next to each of the existing headings if you just want to change or add to that section.

When I started editing here, I found it easiest to look at a good article about the same type of subject and then copy the style, headings and such. Open two browser windows, one on your sample article, perhaps Dan Rather. Open a different browser window for the article you're editing, Martin Nolan. Click Edit on both of them. Look at the code that makes the sample look good and copy-and-paste it over to the article you're working on and type in your text. Then click the 'Preview' button at the bottom of the edit window. Look good? Add a short summary and then 'Save page'. For me, that was easier than learning the code first... I learned as I edited.

If you have more specific questions, I'll be glad to help. I'll be watching your talk page for a bit so you can ask here. Take care, DocTree (ʞlɐʇ·ʇuoɔ) WER 02:28, 29 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
