Hi Denis. As you may have noticed, Citizendium does not generally use categories in the same way as other wikis. Where they are used, it is generally for admin - e.g., CZ live articles, disambiguation and workgroups. Unfortunately, at the moment, that means there's no really easy way to spot related articles, e.g., Irish-related articles. This should hopefully change in the future, when Area Studies workgroups should be created, including on a country level. In the meantime, you might want to add appropriate articles to the 'See Also' section of [[Ireland]]. I've taken the liberty of adding [[Kingdom of Oriel]] there.

Revision as of 09:29, 8 August 2007
Tasks: start a new article • add basic, wanted or requested articles • add definitions • add metadata • edit new pages
Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! --Larry Sanger 03:51, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
Fast at work!
Hi Denis, good to see you working hard! Before you get too many articles started, let me introduce you to CZ:The Article Checklist. This needs to be added to the talk page of each of your articles so that it does not get deleted. Let me know if you have any questions. --Matt Innis (Talk) 10:02, 20 July 2007 (CDT) Constable
Welcome
Another Irish author! Welcome, and best of luck. Regards, Anton Sweeney 08:35, 24 July 2007 (CDT)
Write-a-thon
Hi Denis. I don't know if you're aware of Citizendium's first CZ:Monthly_Write-a-Thon, which takes place today, but your new articles entitle you to sign up to the party :-) Anton Sweeney 10:36, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
