Welcome!
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 CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Hayford Peirce 01:45, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
A historical welcome!
Are there subject areas where you especially need content at the history website? I'm a History and Military (and other things) Editor, with my historical interests in military, intelligence and special operations, and contemporary U.S. politics. There's a substantial amount of Wars of Vietnam and Vietnam War material here, for example, which I believe does a decent job of showing the complexity and the context, not just something unilaterally U.S. With other History Editors, we've been cleaning up and adding to things in the Pacific War of WWII (help welcome). There's also a good deal on Afghanistan, Iraq, and transnational insurgency. Howard C. Berkowitz 05:01, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
