User talk:Sam Nazari
Welcome!
Welcome, new editor! We're very glad you've joined us. Here are pointers for a quick start. Also, when you get a chance, please read The Editor Role. You can look at Getting Started for other helpful introductory pages. It is essential for you as an editor to join the Citizendium-Editors mailing list in order to stay abreast of editor-related issues. If you wish, just ask me to create a "personal sandbox" for you where you can test out editing and writing articles. If you need help to get going, it is a good idea to join our discussion forums. That's where we discuss policy, proposals or technical problems. You can ask any constable for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and thank you! We appreciate your willingness to share your expertise, and we hope to see you begin actively editing and contributing to Citizendium. Milton Beychok 21:44, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello Milton and thank you for the welcome message and instructions on getting started. This is very exciting. Will you be kind enough to assist me in setting up a sandbox? Thank you User:Sam Nazari
A personal welcome to a new Engineering editor
As a fellow Engineering editor, I just want to extend a warm personal welcome to you. If I can be of any help to you, please let me know. Milton Beychok 21:48, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Let me also welcome you, as another Engineering editor. Your radar background certainly showed up on my radar; the radar article definitely needs work. Electronic warfare, I suspect, is in much better shape, and I'd welcome collaboration in getting it Approval ready. Howard C. Berkowitz 22:06, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you, Howard, for the warm welcome. I will do my best to contribute to the radar article and much much more. Very exciting project! Sam Nazari
You now have a personal sandbox
Sam, at the upper left hand corner of your user page is a blue link labeled "My sandbox". Just click on that and it takes you to your sandbox. A few other helpful (I hope) comments:
- Read the blue banner at the top of the edit page for this Talk page and read the explanation about indenting . When you create a new comment with a new header, you need not indent your posting. The first response posting should be indented by placing a single colon, : , at the front of the posting. The next responder, you or anyone else, uses 2 colons, :: , to indent and the third responder uses 3 colons, ::: , and so forth. I am correcting the indenting on this page at this time. You can look at the edit page to see what I did.
- Also on that blue banner, it tells you that postings should be signed and dated by simply typing 4 tildes, Milton Beychok 02:19, 3 August 2010 (UTC), at the end of your posting. Our software will then automatically sign your name and date it for you ... so all you have to do is type the 4 tildes.
- Don't forget to expand your biography quite a bit. If you don't feel comfortable on how to do that, send me the expanded biography as a Microsoft Word document and I will place it on your user page for you. Regards and have fun. Milton Beychok 02:19, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
