I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'what one may' is the definition.

'write' is the link.

(Other definitions for article that I've seen before include "See 10" , "Object - piece of writing" , "something" , "What might be illustrated by a" , "Commodity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Irish Independent.
