A friend wrote an article for Wikipedia at my request, but could not upload it, or whatever (one non-computer savvy working with another). Am I to understand that if she was editing from an anonymous IP instead of creating an account, she could not start a new article? KP
Yeah, that's correct. Currently, editors must be logged in to create new articles. That, or use [[Wikipedia:Articles for creation]] and wait for a logged-in user to wade through that page.

Thanks. I don't understand the last part, but I only needed the first part--it's rather impossible for the computer illiterate to diagnose what the computer illiterate did wrong. I'll just get her to create an account.
