The [[CZ:Executive Committee|Executive Committee]] of the ''Citizendium'' is chosen by the Editor-in-Chief from among the most active participants, with approximately equal numbers of editors and authors.  Its function is primarily to advise the Editor-in-Chief and to help make "business" decisions which, due to their sensitive nature, cannot be negotiated entirely out in the open.  This is not a Board of Directors; we will be adding such a board hopefully in early 2008.  Since it is impossible to serve both on the Executive Committee and another major project body, such as the Editorial Council and the Constabulary, this is not necessarily a list of the most "valuable" or "honored" members of the project, as some of our most crucial and useful Citizens are members of the Editorial Council or the Constabulary.

About our staff

The Citizendium is run by a collection of volunteers. Pat Palmer is working with an Advisory Team on policy, goals and membership and is handling new account requests, and User:Sergei Chekanov upgraded the software in March 2022; at the same time as the software upgrade, hardware was also upgraded to include SSD drives and a faster processor.

Until 2021, Francisco Reyes and Joshua Sadule worked (along with occasional assistance from others) towards upgrading the server and outdated wiki software, and generously handled many repairs and backups.

In 2020, domain ownership was transferred to Pat Palmer, who expects to continue operating the wiki with a high degree of transparency, with gratitude to all the volunteers helping keep things going. Also since 2020, Citizendium has occasionally paid for professional tech support in upgrading the software behind the wiki.

New volunteers are welcome! Let us know if you'd like to become involved.

Payments

Contributors are not paid for writing articles and we have no plans to allow that. The wiki is also free to use and all our articles are available under a free license. We rely entirely on donations from our volunteers and supporters.

In terms of work on the project itself, this is a volunteer project. Occasionally, management has had to pay a contractor briefly for technical work, but mostly we do it ourselves. No one helping manage the wiki receives any salary or benefits.

NOTE: John Stephenson is theoretically one of our managing editors, but he hasn't been around for some time. So we're moving his name down here, for now. We hope he's okay!
