CZ:New Workgroup Requests

The Citizendium Editorial Council (or a workgroup thereof) will be responsible for settling on new workgroups. Nonetheless, we need a place where the community can suggest new workgroups. Please do so below.

Brand new groups:

• Dance
• Biography
• Space Exploration
• Transportation (automobile, trucks, motorcycles, marine, aircraft, airports, flyways, roadways, highways, traffic engineering and planning, and more) — Jeff Dean 22:55, 15 April 2007 (CDT)
  • I concur, only for the sake of brevity I would call it 'Transport'. I wish to create a "Sailing" article. I relate to it as a form of transport, but found it is an article under sports. Can an article be included under more than one Workgroup? Andrew Fleisher 22:33, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
• Information Security -- this is a discrete discipline from Workgroup:Computers, but does have some overlap with the 'Security' subgroup. I am new to the fold and plan to add many, many articles on the subject
• Social Groups (or something similar), where organisations such as Scouting and NGOs (non-government organisations, e.g. the Red Cross/Crescent) can be documented. - Andrew Fleisher 22:33, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
  • Maybe we should have separate categories/workgroups for 'Business Organisations', 'Government Organisations' (which includes international bodies such as the UN) and 'Other Organisations'. The idea requires development. - Andrew Fleisher 23:05, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
• Investment, which has some matter in common with business, but also has a lot which is not. - Andrew Fleisher 22:43, 25 April 2007 (CDT)
• Myths and Legends. Greek and Roman mythical and legendary topics fit into classics, but there are many more bodies of myths and legends that have nowhere to go.

Changes:

• Performance Arts, for Theater
  • But then where does one place articles about 'performing' for movies and sitcoms? - Andrew Fleisher 02:26, 26 April 2007 (CDT)
