User talk:Natasha Barbolini

Welcome

Tasks: start a new article • add basic, wanted or requested articles • add definitions • add metadata • edit new pages

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!

You can find some more information about our collaboration groups if you follow this link CZ:Workgroups.You can always ask me on my talk page or others about how to proceed or any other question you might have.

If you find that you need a Constable, feel free to check with me on my talk page. Have fun and Happy editing! --Matt Innis (Talk) 09:33, 13 September 2007 (CDT)

Hi Natasha, are you one of Lee Bergers' students? He said he was going to let some of you loose in here. Thanks for the help and feel free to ask questions.  :) Chris Day (talk) 12:53, 24 September 2007 (CDT)

Documentation of images

Hi Natasha. Nice work over at Fossilization. We need to work at securing permissions to use the images you've uploaded. I'd appreciate if you'd take a moment and visit the images you uploaded, their pages, and give specific source information, as far as you know it: who holds the copyright, the books they came from and page numbers, Call #s, web-address, etc. Treat it as though you are publishing and having to secure these permissions to avoid trouble with copyrights--because that is exactly the case here!  :-) I'm pretty experienced at this sort of stuff so I'll help. The more precise the data to start with the more easy it is to secure permissions.  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 00:19, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

By the way, I am sure you know already, but one way to avoid having to secure permissions for these is to obtain alternatives that are already licensed to allow for reproductions or are in the public domain. See CZ:Images#Copyrights for more info.  —Stephen Ewen (Talk) 01:37, 26 September 2007 (CDT)

Anthro Workgroup

Hi Natasha, nice start on Fossilization. I have added it as a category on the CZ:Anthropology Workgroup under Taphonomy. Whenever you create a new article, just leave a note on the talk page of the workgroup and one of the editors will add the article under whichever category is appropriate.

Fossil

Natasha, since you have already done the hard work, why don't you go ahead and create the article Fossil using the information you have collected for Fossilization. this will nesure that the page appears well rounded and has strong links - that will speed up the "approval" process. Additionally, look at adding some related links to your page - you can find plenty of good ones at the Anthropology workgroup homepage.
