- Hello, @Coolkid3318: Thanks for getting in touch. I don't have any particular knowledge about that subject, so I am not sure how I can help. Writing an article from scratch is one of the most challenging things on Wikipedia, and the best advice I can give is to read and re-read the instructions at Help:Your first article. If you have any specific questions, please feel free to ask, or of course you can always go to the Wikipedia:Help desk.--Gronk Oz (talk) 10:57, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
