Welcome Page

Welcome, new editor! We're very glad you've joined us. Here are pointers for a quick start. Also, when you get a chance, please read The Editor Role. You can look at Getting Started for other helpful introductory pages. It is essential for you as an editor to join the Citizendium-Editors (broadcast) mailing list in order to stay abreast of editor-related issues, as well as the mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. It is also important, for project-wide matters, to join the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list. 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 thank you! We appreciate your willingness to share your expertise, and we hope to see your edits on Recent changes soon.

Some ideas for contributions

Hei Lars,

welcome to Citizendium! Roger has already given you some hints as to how things work here, and the main differences to Wikipedia (detailed here) can be boiled down to the following: Apart from using real names and appreciating expert opinions, we have subpages (e.g. for Definitions and Related Articles) instead of categories for contextualization, forums for discussions that go beyond a single article, and Eduzendium for coursework. Except for approved articles, basically all pages (including the Welcome Page as well as most policy pages and templates) can be edited by any user.

We don't have all that much content on things Norwegian or Architecture, so your contributions would be very welcome in getting structure in there. For a start, the current state of some relevant CZ articles is displayed below (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/doc; for the [r], just mouse over it):

Looking forward to fruitful collaborative editing, --Daniel Mietchen 20:55, 2 May 2010 (UTC)
