The resolution
Whereas, reference information of the same sort that is sought in an encyclopedia can without a great change of mission be added to an encyclopedia project;
Whereas, it has been part of our declared intention, since the project was originally announced, that we might expand to include other sorts of information;
Whereas, our Citizens have already on several occasions added such information alongside traditional encyclopedia article drafts;
Whereas, information of different types grouped together in sets about individual topics are more useful than having the same information ungrouped;
Resolved, That the Citizendium adopts subpages as a new format and tool, as described in CZ:Subpage Pilot (which see). In particular,
(1) there will be a template, similar to either {{subpages}} or {{subpages9}}, on each article page;
(2) "default" subpages, links to which are listed even if there is no content on the page yet, are to include Related Articles (see example), Bibliography (see example), and Links (see example);
(3) among a wide variety of other subpages, the Citizendium will begin to invite, and include, signed articles, according to the policy explained at Signed Articles (which see, and see also this example);
(4) all new subpage types will be announced to the Council, which will have the option of discussing and voting on them; and
(5) when articles are approved by Citizendium editors, it will be understood that all of the associated subpages are being approved as well.
