= What are core articles? =
Core articles are our top priority articles--articles that are most in demand and most important for us to include in an encyclopedia that has any hope of being comprehensive.
Our leading authors and editors [http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,1221.0.html believe] this initiative is very important.  We hope you'll set aside your relatively specialized interests for a while, and join the contest to create reliable introductions to the most basic topics known to humanity.
== How does the core articles initiative work? ==
Essentially, we list our ''unwritten'' core articles here on this page, negotiating about which articles really are our highest priority.  We then invite people to write articles on those topics, awarding points for any draft that is 250 words or longer.  We tally points on [[CZ:Core Articles/Scores]].
=== Page format ===
This is one big long page, divided into sections, one for each workgroup.  Each section should be written in three columns.  However, make sure the columns break after each workgroup.  (So each workgroup header is in one column which spans all three.)  Total number of articles on page will be about 4,000.  So it will be a big page, but that's OK, it's not too big.
Each line of a workgroup's section begins with # so that the entries are numbered.  Most important (highest point value) entries should be listed first.  Format of a line evolves like this:
The original entry simply says "French painting" is worth 5 points:
:<code><nowiki># [[French painting]] (5)</nowiki></code>
Once Jane Doe has written a draft article over 250 words, she may take credit:
:<code><nowiki># [[French painting]] (5) - [[User:Jane Doe|]]</nowiki></code>
Someone confirms that Jane has written 250 words, writing "OK":
:<code><nowiki># [[French painting]] (5) - [[User:Jane Doe|]] - OK</nowiki></code>
Finished.
'''Note:''' ''anyone'' may edit any section of this page so that the section is in conformity with these formatting guidelines!  [[CZ:Be Bold|Be Bold]]!
=== Topic choice ===
Each workgroup nominates 99 topics (33 per column).  Exceptions are Biology, Health Sciences, History, Geography, Business, Media, Games, Hobbies, and Sports, which may nominate 198 topics (66 per column).  For some already-existing article lists, for ideas, please see [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:High_priority_articles_for_pilot] and [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Anthony_Argyriou/WPbasicarticles1] as well as, in many cases, workgroup homepages.  Here are the [http://tools.wikimedia.de/~leon/stats/wikicharts/index.php?lang=en&wiki=enwiki&ns=articles&limit=1000&month=09%2F2007&mode=view 1000 most popular Wikipedia articles of September 2007.]  List articles in ''only'' one workgroup.  All topics must be either completely unwritten, a micro-stub, or status=4.
Anyone may list articles here, but if workgroup editors wish to work out the list elsewhere, they may.
<nowiki>*</nowiki> '''Note:''' top priority articles that are status=4 (unedited from Wikipedia) ''should'' be listed, but with an asterisk--which indicates that, to get the points, a person must either completely replace or rewrite the article.
<nowiki>**</nowiki> '''Also note:''' "micro-stubs" (articles without pictures, 50 words or less) should also be listed, but with two asterisks.
=== Attaching points to topics ===
Each workgroup may award 10 points for the five most important articles in the group, 5 points for the ten next most important, and 2 points for the 14 next most important (down to #33, the bottom of the first column).  The rest (in the middle and right columns) are worth a point apiece.
The first and/or most motivated editor attaches points to articles.  If after a reasonable period it appears no editor is going to step up, then the most qualified and motivated author issues the points.
=== Claiming points ===
''None'' of these articles may come from Wikipedia, if you want it to count.  In fact, if you want, you can entirely replace a status = 4 Wikipedia-sourced article with a new CZ article.  Please do.
For now, we do not track first draft authors on the talk page or the metadata page of an article, but only on [[CZ:Core Articles]].
Authors may claim points on [[CZ:Core Articles/Scores]] only after their article length (and non-Wikipediahood) has been OK'd.
=== Already-written core articles ===
In the sections titled "Already-written core articles," please list top priority articles that were already written prior to September 25, 2007.  List any articles that are ''as high'' or ''higher'' priority as any on the list of 99 (or 198).  This is to prevent people from listing articles that have already been written, and so that this page is maximally useful to the end-user.  Points are not given for articles in this section--well, not yet, anyway.
=== The "Miscellaneous" category ===
Articles that we'll definitely want, but which aren't obviously located in any existing workgroup, should be placed in [[#Miscellaneous|Miscellaneous]].  There can be up to 300 articles listed here.  Make sure there are no duplicates (overlap with workgroup lists).  Each of these will be worth 1 point, unless any editor decides otherwise.

''Articles that we'll definitely want, but which aren't obviously located in any of the above workgroups.''
''Country profiles - in Geography, no?''.  I'd say yes.
1. [[Globalisation]]
*should be politics, sociology, and economics
*must be interdisciplinary to avoid narrow bias
2. [[Development]]
*of what? of a country, then economics and geography [development studies are usually in economics]
*must be interdisciplinary to avoid narrow bias; geographers don't usually deal with it
3. [[Petroleum]]
*what angle? if substance, then chemistry and geology; can also be economics and politics
*all angles - must be interdisciplinary for a general article
4. [[Ideology]]
*sociology, politics and philosophy
*a real toss-up!
5. [[Poverty]]
*sociology or economics
*I'd choose sociology if I had to [economic sociology]
6. [[Death and Dying]]
*interdisciplinary but probably best belongs in biology; could also be in sociology
*death - religion would seem to lay equal claim as biology; dying - about as interdisciplinary as something can get
7. [[Social Work]]
*needs a Social and Public Policy Workgroup [usually located in Social Policy]
8. [[Women's studies]] or [[Gender studies]]
*mostly sociology, but can encompass many others

What are core articles? Core articles are our top priority articles – articles that are most in demand and most important for us to include in an encyclopedia that has any hope of being comprehensive. Essentially, we list our unwritten core articles here, negotiating about which articles really are our highest priority.

We hope you'll set aside your relatively specialized interests for a while, and create reliable introductions to the most basic topics.
