I would like to add to the Martin Shaw:composer page, using the books I have in my possession. I started with a paragraph but the one I added was deleted. Perhaps the style was too chatty. How do I go about enlarging the article - with approval?

kind regards, Isobel.
 * One way you can start is by writing out the paragraph in a sandbox (for instance, User:Ixobel/Sandbox) to make sure that you have the formatting right and that you've cited your sources properly. Then when you're done, copy and paste it all into the article. If you need any wiki formatting help let me know.

Thanks Hammer. Today I come on and see that my article is back again! But after I had re-written it using the entry on Martin Shaw in Songs of Praise Discussed. So as I guess that is a 'safer' bet, I changed the article to the more toned down, factual piece. Ix
