Unfortunately, the only effective way to contribute on Wikipedia is to publish it elsewhere and wait for lots of people who happen to also read Wikipedia to think that your stuff is important. Sometimes "wait" means "more than 5 years". It also helps to think of Wikipedia people as being kind of a niche audience. The real audience is people who use search engines like Google and Bing. I also think that if you link from your article to other related articles online, the process is quicker. Link to other related content, such as the external links presently used by that Wikipedia article, or be more creative and do your own Google/Bing searches to find other useful articles on circumscription (sic?) That means turning your .txt into a .html (hint: you can put "<pre>" around most of it) and submit its URL to Google and Bing (see [1] and [2]). You should do that to all of your publshed content, at the very least adding title and keywords tags, which will get your work noticed much more effectively than being linked on Wikipedia. - Robert [1] http://www.google.com/submityourcontent/website-owner/ [2] https://ssl.bing.com/webmaster/SubmitSitePage.aspx On 6/2/12, Henry Baker <hbaker1@pipeline.com> wrote:
