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! Hayford Peirce 16:24, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
Welcome!
Among other things, I'm a Military Workgroup Editor, which, believe it or not, has a great deal of emphasis on human rights. I also have a substantial background in politics.
Some articles on which you might want to comment, or edit, include human rights, health care reform, same-sex marriage, community activism. There's been some recent rethinking in the social capital article, which we thought was close to ready until some additional ideas came to mind.
Weak state and failed state are issues on the international level. Howard C. Berkowitz 17:53, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
