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 Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, our help system and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via Twitter. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forum is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any administrator for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!
You can find some more information about our collaboration groups if you follow this link CZ:Workgroups.You can always ask me on my talk page or others about how to proceed or any other question you might have.
Kind Regards,

Topic informant
Thanks for the cleanup work on the Galileo article. But one thing confuses me: the Topic Informant workgroup seems to apply to living people (or, I'd presume, the more or less recently deceased). Is there a reason for applying it to Galileo? I'm a newbie here myself and not eager to make waves; just trying to figure it all out. Daniel Drake 03:17, 4 April 2007 (CDT)
Daniel, David, the Topic Informant Workgroup is to be placed only on living or recently deceased people, and some other articles--obviously not historical figures. Please do not add Category:Topic Informant Workgroup to any more articles until you have reviewed the relevant rules. --Larry Sanger 11:31, 6 April 2007 (CDT)
CZ Live
Please review the editing history of Gao_Yaojie on Wikipedia [1]. You will see that there has been significant collaborative editing. This is with respect to your removal of the article from CZ Live. You will see from the dates that while I created the article originally on Wikipedia; I simultaneously published the article on Citizendium, incorporating editing from Wikipedia.
