Welcome!

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Sarah Tuttle 23:08, 15 December 2007 (CST)
Greetings
Hi Bram, thanks for jumping right in and editing, it's greatly appreciated. You may have noticed my edits to some of your articles, and might be wondering what that's about. I've been adding subpages to your articles (you can read more about them here) and changing a few words to bold (that's to do with article mechanics). Don't feel overwhelmed, you'll get the hang of it soon enough.
I'd also like to encourage you to cite your sources. In some of the articles you've started, you've made claims that need to be referenced (for example, the number of neurons in a macrocolumn in the neocortex article, or how a cortical column is a measure of a species intelligence). If you've got any questions, feel free to ask and I'll do my best to help out.
Again, thanks for editing, and I hope you enjoy being part of the citizendium! Richard Pettitt 10:44, 27 December 2007 (CST)
