Your link from Wikipedia doesn't work properly because you forgot to replace the space between your names with an underscore. It should be <nowiki>[http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Robert_Thorpe]</nowiki> but you have <nowiki>[http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Robert Thorpe]</nowiki> so the software thinks that you're just naming the link to "Thorpe". I almost just changed it there but I figured an anonymous IP channging your userpage would be a little suspicious. :-) [[User:Joe Quick|--Joe Quick]] ([[User talk:Joe Quick|Talk]]) 15:42, 9 October 2007 (CDT) | Your link from Wikipedia doesn't work properly because you forgot to replace the space between your names with an underscore.

I hope I haven't made the wrong impression--just that it's a benefit of the project to create its own article rather than to be a fork of WP. I'm not implying that there is any kind of ownership here, we encourage everyone to contribute. You're entirely welcome to develop the article as you see fit as well; I personally have a preference of not using material from WP. --[[User:Robert W King|Robert W King]] 18:18, 12 October 2007 (CDT) | |||
Revision as of 18:18, 12 October 2007
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! Aleksander Stos 01:38, 5 October 2007 (CDT)
Re: thanks et al.
Since you tried I'll give you an approximation: it's something like un-j (accent on "un") -- but please keep it strictly confidential, I don't want my test to be too easy ;-) Aleksander Stos 11:39, 5 October 2007 (CDT) PS. I enjoy some differences too (on occasions I still edit enwiki/frwiki).
- 1. Just like this :)
- 2. Your infobox is pretty cool. I deleted something a few months ago as there was no working template, I guess. (I put the wikitext on the talk for possible future re-use.) It was famous Big Cleanup operation, we suppressed many unsupported links. Cheers, Aleksander Stos 03:03, 6 October 2007 (CDT)

Your link from Wikipedia doesn't work properly because you forgot to replace the space between your names with an underscore. It should be [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Robert_Thorpe] but you have [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Robert Thorpe] so the software thinks that you're just naming the link to "Thorpe". I almost just changed it there but I figured an anonymous IP channging your userpage would be a little suspicious. :-) --Joe Quick (Talk) 15:42, 9 October 2007 (CDT)
