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! Robert Tito 10:32, 2 February 2007 (CST)

Hey, you 'idiot with a business to run";-) ! Why don't you apply to be an editor? You could have fun - and you sure don't need to do anything more than what you already do! Nancy Sculerati MD 08:12, 11 February 2007 (CST)

Great Britain vs. United Kingdom

More people actually use the term 'Great Britain' to refer to the whole entity, which includes Northern Ireland rather than 'United Kingdom'. Being very pro-British myself, I use the term 'Great Britain' in the same way that I use the term 'British Commonwealth'. - (Aidan Work 20:26, 18 February 2007 (CST))

more may use the term GB to mean the whole entity but they'd be wrong and CZ would be doing them a disservice by propagating this misconception. Chris Day (Talk) 12:19, 19 February 2007 (CST)

I think this discussion would be more appropriate (and more generally useful to a wider range) on the Talk:United Kingdom page. Please keep it there. Ian Cundell 12:30, 19 February 2007 (CST)

Hi Ian. I replied on my talk page. Stephen Ewen 14:09, 16 March 2007 (CDT)
