Page in progress

This is the home page of the Citizendium project. It's a notice board and central launch point for community pages. From here, you can get started, get technical help, read about content policy, explore our articles and organization, and much more.

We're deeply committed to making a reliable, free, and enormous general reference source. We've shown to our delight that we can create a more mature wiki community, open to the public, led by experts, with all using their real identities; so we're in it for the long haul.

Won't you join in?
