Tarrant, a couple of things: 1) I saw your recent edit on [[Talk:Digital_Rights_Management#Edits_in_Process]]. Please be aware that, when starting a new topic on a talk page, by convention people expect that to be at the bottom (end) of the page. I have moved the comments down, this time. 2) If you place four contiguous tilde's (~) at the end of talk page comments, it automatically "signs" for you, leaving behind the date/time and a link to your user page. Thanks![[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 18:12, 14 August 2008 (CDT) | |||

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! D. Matt Innis 18:47, 14 July 2008 (CDT)

Tarrant, a couple of things: 1) I saw your recent edit on Talk:Digital_Rights_Management#Edits_in_Process. Please be aware that, when starting a new topic on a talk page, by convention people expect that to be at the bottom (end) of the page. I have moved the comments down, this time. 2) If you place four contiguous tilde's (~) at the end of talk page comments, it automatically "signs" for you, leaving behind the date/time and a link to your user page.
