[edit]

I need some advice from someone more knowledgeable than I on editing Wikipedia pages. My basic problem is that on the subject page, the entry for 1994 Donald McIntyre is pointing to the wrong Donald McIntyre elsewhere in Wikipedia. The correct Donald B. McIntyre...

(also mentioned on the APL pages as an IBM Systems Journal contributor - see "Further Reading" section entry "McIntyre, Donald B. (1991). "Language as an intellectual tool: From hieroglyphics to APL". IBM Systems Journal 30 (4). Archived from the original on May 4, 2006.)

...does not actually have his own page but I actually feel that he should as he is famous in his own right as a Scottish Geologist and Computer Mathematician of note (please see [1]). I would like to start such a page so that the link on the subject page can be corrected and hence point to the right person but I am a complete novice at this so would really appreciate any guidance and help from someone out there to get it started as I am certain there are many of Donald's peers who would leap at the chance to contribute. Sadly Donald passed away last month on October 21st aged 86.
