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 Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! --Larry Sanger 00:57, 22 July 2007 (CDT)

Good edit

Hi Todd That was an improvement to the Stonewall riots article introduction. It is nice to see another eye spot what one can miss from one's own close perspective.--Ian Johnson 18:14, 25 July 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for the kind words

Todd, thanks for the kind words. I'm just a bit demoralized because I'm running into the same editor and I'm running into the same problems. It's hard to say anything productive because I don't want it to be construed as a personal attack on anyone. I don't have a problem with anyone's politics or viewpoints. I just don't think some people fully appreciate the difference between a fact and an opinion. At this time, Citizendium doesn't have a way to handle that problem.

I realize this. What I think you need to realize is that this project is very young, and now that some controversial topics have been created, it will put the current system to the test. My request to you is that you continue to stand up for what you believe in, and hopefully CZ can grow from this. Nothing ever worth achieving comes easy. :) --Todd Coles 13:32, 26 July 2007 (CDT)

Beer

Thanks Todd, I had cut and pasted from an earlier article and, whilst I have it on reasonable authority that at least one of the ABBA members was a regular beer drinker, external links to the ABBA websites were most thankfully removed by you from Beer.

Now. Where are my glasses (spectacles type glasses I mean). Cheers! --Ian Johnson 12:29, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
