Welcome!
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 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! D. Matt Innis 00:38, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
Some ideas for contributions
Hi Ray, welcome aboard CZ. Matt has already given you some hints as to how things work here in general, and I wish to add some more practical suggestions on what possibilities you have to contribute. For a start, I just took some of the keywords from the information you supplied upon registration, and display below the current state of related CZ articles (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc):
- Partial differential equation: An equation giving a relationship between a mathematical function of multiple variables and its derivatives. [e]
- Integral equation: Add brief definition or description
- Potential theory: Add brief definition or description
- Calculus of variations: Add brief definition or description
- Mathematics: The study of quantities, structures, their relations, and changes thereof. [e]
- Physics: The study of forces and energies in space and time. [e]
- Algorithm: A sequence of steps used to solve a problem. [e]
- History: Study of past human events based on evidence such as written documents. [e]
- Politics: The process by which human beings living in communities make decisions and establish obligatory values for their members. [e]
- The University of Texas at Austin: Add brief definition or description

- Texas (U.S. state): 28th state (1845) of the USA. [e]
In order to find articles dealing with similar topics, it's also worth looking at the Related Article subpages of such an article.
Furthermore, in case you are involved in homework assignments, please consider doing so via Eduzendium articles.
Finally, you can help future newcomers by giving your feedback on the above suggestions. To do so, please leave a note on my talk page.
Looking forward to fruitful collaborative editing, --Daniel Mietchen 09:42, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
