Landon:

Let me echo the welcome you got from Howard Berkowitz and I will try to 
answer your questions.

As for the Public Land Survey System you referred to at 
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Public_Land_Survey_System,  what you saw 
there is not a stub, but an empty page telling you that there is no such 
article as yet. So the answer to your question is go ahead and write 
such an article.  The way to start an article is to look at the left 
hand vertical column on every page and click on the link  "Start 
Article". Name your article "Public Land Survey System" or any other 
title you wish. ... and go to it. Howard and/or I will help you format 
it if that is needed.

I would strongly suggest that you look at the article at 
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Baseline_%28surveying%29 entitled 
"Baseline (surveying)" to get an idea of how to format articles. Also, 
for whatever title you select,  you should only capitalize the first 
letter of the first word ... unless it is the name of an actual 
recognized system or organization that always uses more capitalization. 
It is a bit of a hassle to have to change a title later.

My direct email is mbeychok at cox.net and please let me know when you need 
any help. You can also leave post messages to me at [[User talk:Milton 
Beychok]].
