Welcome to Biology Week!
Biology Week is a big "online convention" of Biologists here on the Citizendium. Would you like to see more work done on articles about 
Biology on Citizendium? Then such events are your chance to make a difference.
An archive of the first Biology Week's (held here from Sep 22-28, 2008) page can be found here. For planning and administration of Biology Week, go here.
Brief summary of events during the first Biology Week
During the period of these roughly seven days, a total of about 20 biology authors (most of them active on the site before Biology Week) have started 11 biology clusters and edited another 40, with little change in status towards approval. For comparison, the monthly Write-a-thons usually see about 15 authors (rarely including newcomers) starting around 10 clusters on that day's predefined theme and edit another 15 or so, with even less progress towards approval.
Lessons learned
- Recruitment was ineffective for both registered users and newcomers
- The amount of collaborative editing was higher than on usual days but did not go much beyond the level of the Write-a-thons
- (add your's here )
