This is a special talk page. I've long been of the opinion that ''good ideas'' (along with the hard work to put them into effect) are the ''sine qua non'' of a successful project. Got an idea for CZ? Please add it to this page. I might say one of at least three things: (1) thanks, interesting, maybe we'll get to that some day; (2) this is something we could do anytime, but requires discussion; (3) I think it's a bad idea. | This is a special talk page.

::So that we make it possible to organise an articles by the importance they hold to someone of a certain ethnic group or language family. For example there are several articles about Dutch culture and customs on citizendium; and there are several Dutch contributors to citizendium –including me– and they could help use with those articles because they are familiar with the subject. But they have no way to of knowing what articles are about Dutch culture; because they have no possibility of seeing a overview of all the articles about Dutch culture. So the article about the [[Netherlands]] could have the category. Netherlands, Dutch language, Frisian Language added to it and Dutch people like me can check that category and see where they need our help. (like translations and verifications). This would also eliminate the need for the category of linguistics; to be add to an articles because we need qualified people to double-check translations | ::So that we make it possible to organise an articles by the importance they hold to someone of a certain ethnic group or language family.

::This would also attract more foreign non-English speaking people when citizendium expands into different language territories. Like wikipedia did. | |||
::Another series of useful categories would be the ideological ones. When you have a online encyclopaedia people will naturally create groups around a ideological mindset; like Marxism, Catholicism or Punk; and it could be helpful if we where able to monitor the movement of different ideologies by giving them there own categories. This would also help those people who are member of an ideology to quickly find what they are looking for.
