Welcome, James. The main namespace (where we have our encyclopedia articles) is exclusively for encyclopedia articles. I suppose it's all right if you have your poems on a subpage of your user page, though. For now, I've moved them here: [[User:James E Reeves/Poems]]. Sorry our first interaction was not more positive, but I do want to welcome you here. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 03:14, 23 January 2009 (UTC) | |||

Welcome!
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 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! Larry Sanger 00:57, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Poems
Welcome, James. The main namespace (where we have our encyclopedia articles) is exclusively for encyclopedia articles. I suppose it's all right if you have your poems on a subpage of your user page, though. For now, I've moved them here: User:James E Reeves/Poems. Sorry our first interaction was not more positive, but I do want to welcome you here. --Larry Sanger 03:14, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
