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! John Stephenson 09:54, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Citizendium, Ryan

Ryan, I hope you will find Citizendium (a.k.a., CZ) a congenial online encyclopedia to share your knowledge.

On the Welcome page you'll see generic icons to click to find the species Workgroups within (e.g., linguistics, economics). Clicking on the economics Workgroup, for example, will lead you to a link that will show all the articles that have been started in the category economics. You can use this list to find articles that you might be interested in contributing to, or missing articles that you might be interested in writing yourself. Check it out.

Citizendium is an all volunteer group, and we pay for our hosting costs to stay online from member donations, however small will help. You can find a link where to donate on the orange banner above each Citizendium page.

I look forward to reading your contributions. If you need help of any kind and cannot find it on the help page, contact one of us and we will try to help you.

As John Stephenson said, the bold and have fun. Anthony.Sebastian 20:07, 21 August 2013 (UTC), CZ Managing Editor
