CZ:How you can help
A Citizens' Compendium can get off the ground only if there are many "citizens" at work on it--working not only on articles, but also on other essential tasks. This page is a summary of outstanding tasks you can help with, and has links to more information.
Folks, can you please help fill this out? This is just a start. A lot of the items below don't need to be on this list. The focus of this list should be a list of projects that people can help with. Recruitment, design, software, policy drafting and discussion--that's a start. --Larry Sanger 13:53, 28 November 2006 (CST)
TECHNOLOGY
- Hardware - We badly need donations of money and hardware. We need a serious database server, which is not cheap. We're looking for SCSI drives and some sort of RAID solution (5 or 10).
- Software - Please sign up at the development site and join the "Citizendium Tools mailing list". Bugs can also go to this address (but not to both places)
- Website and Design
CONTENT
- Policy Documents - We need to flesh out the policy pages listed Citizendium_Pilot:Policy_Outline here. Most of them
don't exist yet. Try to incorporate information from that page, and the main Citizendium site as well as forum/list discussion. If you create a page, let everyone know on the forum so they can help.
- Help Documents - we need to port help pages from Wikipedia and Wikimedia and adjust them to Citizendium Policies
