Hi Lateria, in case you weren't aware, you were temporarily blocked because one of our very vigilant constables thought a Greenpeace activist had vandalized an article :-)  I sincerely apologize on behalf of the entire police force here at citizendium and hope that you enjoy your newfound freedom to edit again!  Thanks for your understanding.  And if you find that you need some help editing, you can drop by my talk page and I can walk you through it. Actually, you can ask anyone on their talk page and they will be glad to help - that's the neat thing about a wiki!  We all started the same way!  [[User:D. Matt Innis|D.

:Hi, Lateria, sorry I booted you out this morning, but I thought a crazed Greenpeacer was loose on our grounds! I had forgotten that a year ago *another* Eduzendium participant had done *exactly* the same thing to the same article, although with a different text.  I see that Matt got you restored to reality just as I was about to do it. Sorry again, and all the best! [[User:Hayford Peirce|Hayford Peirce]] 01:46, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

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! Hayford Peirce 20:05, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

You've been released!

Hi Lateria, in case you weren't aware, you were temporarily blocked because one of our very vigilant constables thought a Greenpeace activist had vandalized an article :-) I sincerely apologize on behalf of the entire police force here at citizendium and hope that you enjoy your newfound freedom to edit again! Thanks for your understanding. And if you find that you need some help editing, you can drop by my talk page and I can walk you through it. Actually, you can ask anyone on their talk page and they will be glad to help - that's the neat thing about a wiki! We all started the same way! D. Matt Innis 01:43, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Lateria, sorry I booted you out this morning, but I thought a crazed Greenpeacer was loose on our grounds! I had forgotten that a year ago *another* Eduzendium participant had done *exactly* the same thing to the same article, although with a different text. I see that Matt got you restored to reality just as I was about to do it. Sorry again, and all the best! Hayford Peirce 01:46, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
