This is the old project home page, which we used from the beginning of the project through September, 2007. The new project home page is CZ:Home.
Welcome to the CZ:Project Home page for our community of contributors! Whether you're an author or editor, you should find links to everything important to your job below. Or you can add key links, it's your wiki. You'll find links about how to write or edit, how we relate to Wikipedia, and Citizendium's unique approach to workgroups. This Project Home also can guide you to CZ's initiatives and our various policies, including key policies for authors.
Besides serving as a central directory, Project Home aims to promote collaboration among all of us, newcomers and veterans, constables and other personnel, authors and editors, both within and across workgroups. So, please be sure to check here for collaboration opportunities.
