NOTE 1: Do not just create '''Template:MyArticle/Metadata''' directly, because that will create an article in the so-called "mainspace", and the title of the article will happen to contain a colon, as in "Template:MyArticle".  But here, we need a template, which means, an article in the Template: namespace.  So by first creating"Template:MyArticle" and then renaming it, you assure that '''Template:MyArticle/Metadata''' is in the Template namespace (with title "MyArticle/Metadata").  Otherwise, you'll have created an article in the mainspace whose name happens to be '''Template:MyArticle/Metadata''', but the subpages template may not work correctly.

Site Notice

TO-DO LIST

To create a new page, first type type the complete URL for the page into your browser. The URL for any page is https://citizendium.org/wiki/ + page_name (and any spaces in the page_name are represented by an underscore). Thus, the URL for an article named "Saint Helena" would be https://citizendium.org/wiki/Saint_Helena. When you type this URL in the browser's URL space, Citizendium will display the article for you (if it exists) or allow you to create such an article (if it doesn't exist yet).

The URL needed to perform Step 1 below would be: https://citizendium.org/wiki/Template:My_Article. To create a CZ subpages article called My_Article, do things in exactly this order:

  1. create Template:My_Article and populate it with metadata (get contents from an existing article and edit it). See NOTE 1 below.
  2. move Template:My_Article to Template:My_Article/Metadata
  3. create My_Article; add the {{subpages}} template to its top
  4. create My_Article/Definition
  5. create Talk:My_Article; add the {{subpages}} template to its top

Once you have created the article cluster, you can explicitly create these in any order (but do NOT click

  1. (optionally) create My_Article/Related_Articles; add the {{subpages}}template to its top
  2. (optionally) create My_Article/Bibliography; add the {{subpages}} template to its top
  3. (optionally) create My_Article/External_Links; add the {{subpages}} template to its top

NOTE 1: Do not just create Template:MyArticle/Metadata directly, because that will create an article in the so-called "mainspace", and the title of the article will happen to contain a colon, as in "Template:MyArticle". But here, we need a template, which means, an article in the Template: namespace. So by first creating"Template:MyArticle" and then renaming it, you assure that Template:MyArticle/Metadata is in the Template namespace (with title "MyArticle/Metadata"). Otherwise, you'll have created an article in the mainspace whose name happens to be Template:MyArticle/Metadata, but the subpages template may not work correctly.

  • Template:Workgroup - Discussion page (OLD) and Discussion page (NEW) differ; work on spacing to make smaller?

Workgroups

Write-A-Thon ideas

  • The Liberal Arts: History, Arts, Literature, Science, you name it.
  • John S. would prefer first one around New Years
  • Larry and several others like Sundays
  • possible SCHEDULE:
    • start 1 pm England time (6 am EST / 3 am PST)
    • end 11 pm Pacific time (2 am EST / 11 pm PST)
  • possible themes:
    • safe entertainments during a COVID-19 pandemic: such as: books, writers, films, actors, hobbies
    • from John S: animals/pets? Film (actors, directors...)? Planets?
    • from Roger Lohmann: Mysteries; not only the huge (and hugely popular) novels that go by that name, but all the other things that could conceivably come under that heading, from the trivial to the profound, from current affairs to deep history. (What happened to Amelia Earhart? Are there really UFO’s? Orson Welles’ radio broadcast. Who and What is God? Are there miracles? Who were the Neanderthals?)
  • From Rajendra Raju: There are also themes on (a) Motivation and (b) Technical topics that you may find fit to include. I suppose these would become articles ultimately after being cleared by the editors.

Lead author template examples

Ten examples of the Authors or Contribs template:

AUTHORS: 1 name

Authors [about]:
Jane Doe
CZ is an open collaboration. Please
join in to develop this article!

Note that '1' yields "and another author"; anything else (such as a 'y') yields "and other authors".

  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer}}
  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer|others=1}}
  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer|others=y}}

AUTHORS: multiple names

Authors [about]:
Pat Palmer1 | Pat Palmer2 | Pat Palmer3
CZ is an open collaboration. Please
join in to develop this article!

Let's see how the first one below looks (see right).

  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer1|Pat Palmer2|Pat Palmer3}}
  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer1|Pat Palmer2|Pat Palmer3|Pat Palmer4|others=1}}
  • {{Authors|Pat Palmer1|Pat Palmer2|Pat Palmer3|Pat Palmer4|others=y}}

CONTRIBS: invisible unless at least 5 contributors

Contributors [about]:
Pat Palmer | Pat Palmer | Pat Palmer | Pat Palmer | Pat Palmer and other contributors.

CZ is an open collaboration. Please join these people in developing this article!

And how let's see how the Contribs template looks (with 5+ names does).


  • {{Contribs|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer}}
  • {{Contribs|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer}}
  • {{Contribs|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|others=1}}
  • {{Contribs|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer|others=y}}
