Welcome Page

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! Hayford Peirce 18:38, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

joining the Forums

Hi, Mary, you'll probably want to join the Forums, where most of our discussions take place. Because of our (weird) wiki structure, you will have to reapply to join, but it's pretty easy. Just follow the instructions at:

http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php

If you're interested in Editors, expertise, etc., and discussions thereof, you might look at the sub-forums of:

http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/board,6.0.html

and

http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/board,2.0.htm

Real name needed

Hi, Mary, I've just rejected your application to join the Forums -- you have to register as Mary Ash, not MA. Sorry, but I can't change your name once you've joined, so you'll have to do the application over again. Thanks! Hayford Peirce 16:42, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk page of Unidentified flying object

Hi, Mary:

There have been a number of comments posted on Talk:Unidentified flying object and please feel free to respond to any of them. It would be helpful. Milton Beychok 19:29, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Mary, to respond to your question, I don't know what the inuse tag is and thus can't comment on it. If you want to develop text without interference, you can create User: Mary Ash/Sandbox and work on it there uninterrupted. Once something is in mainspace, however, the CZ custom is that it's
  1. Open to editing by others
  2. Large deletions, as opposed to additions, need to be discussed first on the Talk Page.
