Hi Etienne. I've just started a thread in the forums about the astronomy workgroup. I suspect this week is a bad one since at least some people are going to AAS (ok, not me, but some people :>). I think we should start attacking the Astronomy page, and maybe see if we can tidy some articles up for approval. Join me in the forums? -- Sarah Tuttle 10:17, 5 January 2007 (CST)
Physics Articles
Would you be willing to work on the main Physics article? Or some of the other top articles? I've started on Physics, but I've most just pruned. The Biology article is looking great and it would be nice to get some physics articles into that kind of shape. Fred Salsbury 06:41, 11 January 2007 (CST)
Returning to Citizendium: an update on the project and how to get involved
Hello - some time ago you became part of the Citizendium project, but we haven't seen you around for a while. Perhaps you'd like to update your public biography or check on the progress of any pages you've edited so far.
Citizendium now has over 16,000 articles, with more than 150 approved by specialist Editors such as yourself, but our contributor numbers require a boost. We have an initiative called 'Eduzendium' that brings in students enrolled on university courses to write articles for credit, but we still need more Editors across the community to write, discuss and approve material. There are some developed Astronomy and Physics articles that could be improved and approved, and some high-priority Natural Sciences articles that we don't have yet. You can also create new articles via this guide, and contribute to some Astronomy or Physics pages that have been recently edited here and here - or to any others on Citizendium, since you're a general Author as well as a specialist Editor. You may like to contribute to discussions in the forums, and might consider running for an elected position on the Management and Editorial Councils that oversee the project.
If you have any questions, let me know via my Talk page or by leaving a message below this one. Thank you for signing up and reading this update; I hope that you will look in on our community soon. John Stephenson 06:49, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
