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! Bruce M. Tindall 17:25, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Some ideas for contributions

Dear James, welcome aboard Citizendium. Bruce has already given you some hints as to how things work here in general, and I assume that Gareth has mentioned CZ to you before. I wish to add some practical suggestions on what possibilities you have to contribute. For a start, I just took some of the keywords from the information you supplied upon registration, and display below the current state of related CZ articles (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc):

In order to find articles dealing with similar topics, it's also worth looking at the Related Article subpages of such an article (or the [r]).

Good luck with Brochothrix thermosphacta!

Looking forward to fruitful collaborative editing, --Daniel Mietchen 09:43, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Another welcome to Citizendium

Welcome, James, to our collaborative community. I look forward to seeing your work, and learning from it. Ever since I read Eva Jablonka and Marion J. Lamb's Evolution in Four Dimensions, the concept and implications of epigenetics have fascinated me, so I look forward to your contributions in that area. Best wishes. Don't hesitate to contact me on my Talk page or email (anthony_sebastian@msn.com) at any time. Anthony.Sebastian 15:24, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
