Cannot yet create articles with subpages
It is not yet possible to create a new article with subpages. We are still looking into this. It requires code from an ancient extension that no longer works with the upgraded software. If we cannot get that going in the near future, we will have to look into a new way of grouping the subpages for articles in the future. For now, please just wait until we figure out what to do. Sorry for the inconvenience. And it is possible to create new articles now without subpages. Pat Palmer (talk) 11:09, 18 March 2022 (CDT)
- I like the new software. Keep up the good work. David MacQuigg (talk) 11:42, 20 March 2022 (CDT)
- Thank you, David! Sergei Chekanov led the effort, and John Stephenson helped with testing. I'm so grateful to them both. Pat Palmer (talk) 15:29, 20 March 2022 (CDT)

images from the wikimedia commons
I found, recently, that the Citizendium will directly use images from the wikimedia commons. They don't have to be downloaded and then uploaded here.
Has this always worked, or is this an improvement coming from the recent software upgrade?
Should I worry about images I did import?
