Help me!
I just want to add to the existing article on "Nation-State", with comments and observations from four teenage years based in Bitburg, Germany (the USAF base there in the late 1950s-early 1960s), traveling unaccompanied by bicycle to Luxembourg City, some small towns in France, and cycling across England (specifically the area from London to Dover), Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Sweden, and other 'tours' through parts of Italy, Greece, and "the Levantine" in the nineteenth-century British Foreign Office meaning. I intend to include material I recall from various NPR and ABCNEWS broadcasts.

Please help me with...Getting Started

 * I'm sorry, but what you are proposing to do sounds like a violation of Wikipedia's policies regarding original research. Your own observations would need to be published elsewhere first, in a publication that would qualify as a reliable source. Only then could that material be included on Wikipedia.
 * I realize that this may be discouraging to you, a frustration of what you intended to do. I encourage you to write up these observations and post them to your own blog or, failing that, to a Facebook page or some other site that would be happy to host them. While they would not necessarily become eligible thereby for adding to Wikipedia, they can serve as input for other writers and be available for anyone who is interested in them.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 05:48, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
