Revision as of 18:30, 27 April 2007

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 specifically to go, and would probably end up being scattered randomly around the Literature, Religion and Anthropology workgroups, likely leading to duplication of effort. A Myths and Legends workgroup, or something similar, might be a more useful way of organising our efforts in that area. --Patrick Brown 19:30, 27 April 2007 (CDT)


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)
