Help me!
Please help me with posting a biography. I understand it is preferable that I not post my own biography as it may not be subjective. However, the people I know who have volunteered to post it have no knowledge of markup or how to place references or any of the technical matters needed. I have put the body of the BIO in my sandbox which I will submit.

There is not a great deal of clarity as to the steps for posting a bio. If you could outline a step-by-step approach, I'll figure out the rest.

Thanks so much,
