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, and see Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. 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 user or the editors for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!

You can find some more information about our collaboration groups if you follow this link Citizendium_Pilot:Discipline_Workgroups. Look at the left bar and you'll find other useful links. You can always ask me on my talk page or others about how to proceed or any other question you might have.

I'm in the department of Microbiology at your campus. Cheers David Tribe 08:20, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Can I stop by your department sometime and pester you with lots and lots of questions? Microbiology isn't my field exactly, but it does fascinate me ... --Louise Valmoria 15:56, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for volunteering for wikiconversion of word-processor files

Louise, thank you for volunteering. Your joining makes an even dozen. We might have a big enough group that we can start advertising the service in our recruitment drives. --Anthony.Sebastian (Talk) 11:23, 3 November 2007 (CDT)

New Workgroups / Philanthropy Workgroup? / Workgroup Mailing List Discussion

I've been reviewing the workgroup lists as there are two mailing lists that need to be added--for Robotics and Food Science--I intend to set these up today, although I would like to know if there are have been any names put forward for editors under these groups. I also note the appearance of a new Philanthrophy Workgroup on this page. Is this a confirmed new workgroup so I may set up a new list as appropriate? Thanks. --Louise Valmoria 10:30, 18 November 2007 (CST)

Philanthropy is not confirmed. The way to go about adding workgroups is to place requests with rationales at CZ:New_Workgroup_Requests. There are soon going to be lots more workgroups created, all at once, through process of the Editorial Council. Cheers, Stephen Ewen 01:00, 5 December 2007 (CST)

Thanks for the clarification, Stephen. I'm not a part of the Editorial Council, but I do create the mailing lists; is there a particular page that I need to watch to be aware of the new workgroup names, or can I get a heads-up as to the names of the new workgroups so I may can quickly set up mailing lists on Mailman as appropriate? Cheers,--Louise Valmoria 06:57, 5 December 2007 (CST)

Mailing list for submitting requests for MediaWiki markup

Louise, I responded to your excellent suggestion where you put it on my Talk page. --Anthony.Sebastian (Talk) 16:59, 18 November 2007 (CST)

Louise, any further thoughts? --Anthony.Sebastian (Talk) 17:43, 23 November 2007 (CST)

Louise, no comments from the group, so I assume no issues. 'cz-wikiformat' sounds okay to me for name of mailing list. I can notify each volunteer to sign up, and we can put the announcement on the general list asking them again to sign up, and asking for additional volunteers.

Any further suggestions. Larry will be pleased when we can advertise the service, on the main page and elsewhere. --Anthony.Sebastian (Talk) 21:05, 3 December 2007 (CST)

Write-a-thon

Way to go, Ms Valmoria! Thanks for coming to the party. Have you checked out the previous shindigs? Hilarious reading! Keeping dropping by the page, it gets funnier as 'Wednesday' moves across the globe. Aleta Aleta Curry 16:13, 4 December 2007 (CST)

Are you in London or Melbourne at the mo? I'm in NSW and starting to yawn--see all you wild and crazy partiers in the morning! Aleta Curry 04:13, 5 December 2007 (CST)

In Melbourne at the mo! The Write-A-Thon was great fun--there's twenty minutes left of the day in this timezone--thanks for advising me to keep an eye on the page, will definitely keep checking in on everyone else's Wednesday. Thanks for being so welcoming!--Louise Valmoria 06:42, 5 December 2007 (CST)

Subpage inclusions

Thanks for the pick-up and edit/additions on those articles, Louise. I can be a bit sloppy about that! Blessings... --Michael J. Formica 14:55, 6 December 2007 (CST)

Thanks too from myself for the same on culture. aladin Aladin 07:06, 7 December 2007 (CST)
