Hello gents - how do you enter a new person into Wikipedia?

And how do you differentiate the new person from anyone else on there with the same name?

Xxx

Not sure about starting a new page for a person from scratch but to diferentiate one person from another you usually put the profession in brackets after their name e.g.

Bob_Smith(Builder)
Bob_Smith(lifeguard)
Bob_Smith(plasterer)

I hope this helps.

correct. Myself and Claude are pretty active over there so if you need a hand just give either a shout.

infact - just let me know which article it is and I'll sort it out for ya

Actually - what do you to differentiate between two seperate people who have the same name?

I know you put what they do in brackets after their name to get them their own page, but how do you fix it so that people who SEARCH for that name get a complete list of people with the same name?
