    3. Ditto for Alness and Evanton by the way, just hadn't noticed that they were missing before. Invergordon is mentioned in quite a few articles but the link is red which shows it dowsn't yet have an article of its own. ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Reynolds To: ROSSGEN-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 10:01 AM Subject: Invergordon on Wikipedia There's much talk of Invergordon on here, and I wondered whether there was anyone willing/able to write an article on Wikipedia. There's one on the Invergordon Mutiny http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invergordon_Mutiny and one on Invergordon Football Club http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invergordon_F.C. But Invergordon itself is still awaiting its article (at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invergordon ) This is how you contribute to Wikipedia. Beware, it can be addictive! 1) It's best if you register, otherwise your contributions will just appear under your IP address (the part of the internet where you are located), which may not be unique to you . You should choose the degree of anonynimity that suits you best, e.g some people would call themselves "PeterReynolds" and do a wee autobiography on their "about" page, whereas others will call themselves "Sasunnach" and say nothing about themselves! On the other hand people can look and see what you have contributed to what articles and that will give them a picture of your interests. 2) Once registered, log in, click "Edit this Page", and start adding stuff. As you go on you will discover Wikipedia conventions, but you don't need to know anything much to get started! See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Introduction http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_edit_a_page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Be_bold Kind regards Peter Reynolds www.peterreynoldsbooks.co.uk
