To become a contributor at Citizendium, please email manager A T citizendium.org with the following information:

1. your first and last name (to use as a logon account)
2. a document proving that a person of your first and last name owns the email you are using (it can be a photo or scan of a utility bill, ID card or other official document); this will be deleted after we have verified your name
3. a brief writeup for your User page to help other wiki contributors know who you are
4. please list up to three Workgroups that interest you from among those on https://citizendium.org/wiki/Welcome_to_Citizendium

We have a policy against self promotion or PR, and our User pages are not indexed by search engines.

For the User page write-up, do not include a complete resume. We are looking for a brief description of experience, skills or interests that might be helpful to other authors in the wiki in understanding your background during collaboration in the wiki. The writeup need not reveal anything about your location, age, or gender, but if it is too sparse or trivial, we might also deny your application, so please include a writeup--or at least a few sentences--that provides some real information about your background and interest for other contributors.

In certain circumstances (if you request), we will allow you to use first and middle initials in place of a first name.
