Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!

Well, those are our formal welcomes-and it's nice to be able to have you join us as both an editor an author. There's always a learning curve-and I encourage you to explore for a while. First off-check the Notice Board. If I can ever help you, I will try. You can always find me on my talk page. :-) Nancy Sculerati 20:12, 1 April 2007 (CDT)
I'm glad. believe me, a couple of decades in the operating rooms of New York left me with a vocabulary that would probably get me ejected from any number of places (including waterfront bars), -and an attitude that encouraged arrogance. We can think freely here-but the the tone must be professional, formal and very polite, the words gentle- and that really is good. in the long run- better. I have found so often that things I was sure about I was wrong about. Nancy Sculerati 05:39, 3 April 2007 (CDT)
balance
I think you are correct to question the over emphasis of biology in the macromolecular_chemistry article. This has come up before, see Talk:Macromolecular_chemistry#Balance, so i don't think you'll find there are many objections to the types of changes you are proposing.

unapproved?
Can you check out my posts here. User_talk:D._Matt_Innis#Macromolecular_chemistry
I'm unsure what has happened at macromolecular_chemistry but at present it is in a limbo have charactieristics of both an approved article and an unapproved article. You seem to be involved in some of these changes so may be in a better position to help. Thanks. Chris Day (Talk) 10:40, 3 April 2007 (CDT)
