''Citizens--please pitch in.  We need your design skills.  We're adding several new introductory pages for different aspects of the CZ community.  They'll be inviting--simple and well-designed.  Your help with coming up with excellent MediaWiki code designs for these introductory pages will be most appreciated.  Most importantly will be our new project home page, [[CZ:Home]], which will replace [[CZ:Project Home]].  Please dive in if you have the time and inclination, and I'll help of course. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]]''

Current top initiatives

Featured article
Recognition given weekly to a high-quality Citizendium article.
Subpages
(From the Content Policy pages.) There's a lot more to do here than just write encyclopedia articles. We would like bibliographies, related articles ("see also"), and other subject-appropriate material, such as timelines, lists of works, etc.
Uncategorized pages (pain-free version)
Uncategorized pages show up under this list, but that includes many subpages and so it is difficult to find main articles which are not included in the total number of live articles we have (currently 18,300). This initiative aims to raise the total by identifying 'lost' articles that we already have.
