'''Welcome to the ''Citizendium!'''''  We hope you will contribute [[CZ:Be Bold|boldly]] and well.  Here are pointers for a [[CZ:Quick Start|quick start]].  You'll probably want to know [[CZ:The Author Role|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 [https://lists.purdue.edu/mailman/listinfo/citizendium-l the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list] (do join!) and [http://blog.citizendium.org the blog].  Please also join the [[CZ:Mailing lists|workgroup mailing list(s)]] that concern your particular interests.  You can test out [[CZ:How to edit an article|editing]] in the [[CZ:Sandbox|sandbox]] if you'd like.  If you need help to get going, the [http://forum.citizendium.org/ forums] is one option.  That's also where we discuss policy and proposals.  You can ask any [[:Category:CZ Constables|constable]] for help, too.  Me, for instance!  Just put a note on their "talk" page.  Again, welcome and have fun! [[User:Hayford Peirce|Hayford Peirce]] 17:55, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

== Some ideas for contributions ==

Hei Steven,
I saw that you already jumped in, but nonetheless welcome again aboard CZ. Hayford 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]]):

{{rpr|Music}}
{{rpr|Musicology}}
{{rpr|Pop music}}
{{rpr|Art music}}
{{rpr|Music psychology}}
{{rpr|Music perception}}
{{rpr|Jazz}}
{{rpr|Music syntax}}
{{rpr|Violin}}
{{rpr|Guitar}}

In order to find articles dealing with similar topics, it's also worth looking at the [[:Category:Related Article Subpages|Related Article]] [[CZ:Subpages|subpages]] of such an article (or the [r]).

Furthermore, in case you are involved in homework assignments, please consider doing so via [[CZ:Eduzendium|Eduzendium articles]].

Finally, you can help future newcomers by giving your feedback on the above suggestions. To do so, please leave a note on [[User talk:Daniel Mietchen|my talk page]].

Looking forward to fruitful collaborative editing, --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 20:44, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
