thee

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

'you old-fashioned' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'article on etiquette's first' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'the' (the definite article).
'on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (in a down clue, letters appear on others).
'etiquette's first' becomes 'e' (tst letter of 'etiquette').
'the'+'e'='THEE'

'making' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for thee that I've seen before include "you many years ago" , "'U'" , "Old objective second person singular" , "Poetically you" , "Archaic form of 'you'" .)
