Hi, CZ style is not all caps in article titles; [[Trypanosoma Brucei]] should probably be moved to [[Trypanosoma brucei]] (use the "move" tab on the article). Thanks. [[User:J. Noel Chiappa|J. Noel Chiappa]] 16:16, 12 March 2008 (CDT)

Welcome!

Citizendium Getting Started
Quick Start | About us | Help system | Start a new article | For Wikipedians  


Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Dan Nachbar 18:52, 4 March 2008 (CST)
