Welcome to a fellow editor and author
As a fellow editor and author in Citizendium, I want to offer you a very warm welcome! Please visit the Category:Religion Workgroup and the Category:Linguistics Workgroup to see all of the articles already in those workgroups.
I have taken the liberty of creating a personal sandbox page for you. To access your sandbox, just click on the blue link labeled My sandbox in the upper, left-hand corner of your User page. Once you get there, you can click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and you can:
- Practice writing articles in the Wiki markup language.
- If you already know the Wiki markup language, you can draft any articles you want to write and keep changing them until you are completely satisfied with them ... and then you can create a new article by cutting and pasting the sandbox article into the new one.
- You can invite other Citizens to visit your sandbox, review a prospective article that you wrote in sandbox, and ask for their comments/critique before you proceed to cut and paste it into a new article.
Don't know what the Wiki markup language is? Click ==> CZ:How to edit an article. Also, click ==> CZ:Home to find a complete list of all our help pages. Another excellent way to learn the Wiki markup language is to click on the "Edit" tab at the top of any article and see how the markup language was used there.
