What does specifically mean the "comenzar por decir" and the last part, like does it mean that we could write an article in Wikipedia style?!

To know something about him we could focus on reading his biography, starting to say that he publish his first novel in 1979, and to write an article like Wikipedia.

@Guias So to know more about him we should read his biography and then write an Wikipedia article about him?! That doesn't make any sense to me 😓

@chokostreusel I guess you have do a writing about a writer. So first you have to read some information about him. Then you could do it similar to the Wikipedia articles. It's just an idea to do it.

@Guias Problem is: This is a sentence from an article about a person. And then the writer of the article wrote this sentence.
So this is not an exercise 😄

@chokostreusel Ahhh, ok I understand. It's not understandable without a context.
The journalist is assuming what can he do to know more about the writer.
But to explain it you well I need to know how it continue.
