Consequently, this page is only intended to serve as an introduction to the topic. It does so by repeating the descriptions in the Wikipedia "Highland Dress" article (which has improved considerably since the previous edition of the Guide) "

The section on highland dress in the Wikipedia article was actually edited into the Wikipedia article long after it was written by an X Marker who I don't think is even active here any more.
Wikipedia is community based and dependent upon the community to edit.

I added elements a couple years ago, and apparently started the talk page at that time as well, decrying the previous information. Little has been added on the talk page to discuss material, just, as always, wanting more.

Currently, there is a request for information to be added concerning ladies highland dress, which would be a bread addition, if anyone feels so motivated. Lots of material could be gleaned from the forms...
