User talk:Rachael-Dawn Craig

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!

A good place to find information about various collaborative groups is to follow this link to CZ:Workgroups. Of course, please feel free to ask myself (via my talk page) or others about how to proceed or if you have other questions.

Also, as a start, I have put a copy of the bio from your email on your "User" page.

Best regards,

Articles

Hi Rachael-Dawn. Would you mind adding the CZ:The Article Checklist to new articles you create? Also, I've noticed a couple are very short - a single sentence. These are really too short to be articles; very short stubs of less than 150 words are liable to be deleted. If you can expand them - great! Just leave a message on the talk pages of the articles to say they're works in progress, which should see them safe. Thanks in advance, Anton Sweeney 17:06, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

Anton, thanks for the heads up and I'll keep those things in mind in the future. If you'd like, you can delete the short articles now, otherwise I will when I have the time to figure out how. -R
