Damascus, Queensland
I see you are trying to start the article for Damascus in Queensland. It's a big job to start an article, especially when you are new to Wikipedia, so to make it easier for you, I've got it started for you. I'll leave you to add the detail. Thanks for making Wikipedia more informative. If you need help, just ask me. Kerry (talk) 08:53, 30 October 2018 (UTC)

 * A tip to make it easier to write content. When you are logged in, go to "Preferences" (top right of screen), then "Editing", then go down to "Editing mode" and change it to the last option "Show me both editor tabs". Then click Save on the lower left of screen. What that does is give you two ways to edit the article, the "edit" tab will give you the Visual Editor which is more like Microsoft Word. If you click "edit source", you will get the wikitext editor which you have been using so far. I think you will find the Visual Editor easier to use. This is a handy 1-page guide to using the Visual Editor which you might like to print out or refer to. Kerry (talk) 09:07, 30 October 2018 (UTC)
