Hi Lee,

Editing is easy; just go to the page again and click the "edit this page" button at 
the very top of the page. There's also a "discussion" button at the top, where you 
can post comments/questions to people managing the page.

I haven't used Wikipedia much at all, but to test it, I looked up my
father who is a minor celebrity in the aviation/astronautics world.
His death date is incorrect.  I tried to figure out to how to correct
that piece of information, but couldn't figure out how to be able to
edit the article, or even send a message to someone to point out the
incorrect information.

My point is:  some of the "facts" in Wikipedia may be incorrect.

Maybe someone who knows how can tell me how to make corrections??
