'''Welcome to the ''Citizendium!'''''  We hope you will contribute [[CZ:Be Bold|boldly]] and well. Here are pointers for a [[CZ:Quick Start|quick start]].  You'll probably want to know [[CZ:The Author Role|how to get started as an author]].  Just look at [[CZ:Getting Started]] for other helpful "startup" links, and [[CZ:Home]] for the top menu of community pages.  Be sure to stay abreast of events via [https://lists.purdue.edu/mailman/listinfo/citizendium-l the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list] (do join!) and [http://blog.citizendium.org the blog].  Please also join the [[CZ:Mailing lists|workgroup mailing list(s)]] that concern your particular interests.  You can test out [[CZ:How to edit an article|editing]] in the [[CZ:Sandbox|sandbox]] if you'd like.  If you need help to get going, the [http://forum.citizendium.org/ forums] is one option.  That's also where we discuss policy and proposals.  You can ask any [[:Category:CZ Constables|constable]] for help, too.  Me, for instance!  Just put a note on their "talk" page.  Again, welcome and have fun!

:Welcome once more, Thomas! I saw the note you left for Roger and think that [[CZ:Introduction to CZ for Wikipedians]] may be a good place to start exploring the differences to Wikipedia. In case of further questions, you can usually ask anyone you see on Recent Changes. Cheers, --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 01:09, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Thomas, Hi! I noticed your work on [[NoSQL]] and appreciate it very much. I do hope you don't leave the project. It's a wiki, people are bound to disagree sometimes; it will work out (or so I hope).[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 20:51, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
::::: Regarding your question on importing an article. If the article - as you write - is (almost) entirely written by you, it can be imported without WP credit, but you should leave an explaining note on the talk page. You can also import it first to a Sandbox of your user page, and later move it to its intended place. --[[User:Peter Schmitt|Peter Schmitt]] 12:59, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Hello. So within a span of just 8 months you made significant contributions to 50~ articles? That's impressive. ([[User:Chunbum Park|Chunbum Park]] 18:08, 17 February 2010 (UTC))
When so-called "constables" continue to take sides in editorial disputes, it undermines the entire community. My comments on the talk page of [[Four color theorem]] were deleted by constables siding with a contributor who continues to criticize my work as "average", ridden with "minor errors", of only "magazine quality". What's needed is a fair arbitration process. Until then, I'm not contributing here any more.--[[User:Thomas Wright Sulcer|Thomas Wright Sulcer]] 03:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

I don't think so. I'm glad to know you are an alumnus of U of R. The campus is nice, the professors are very demanding and competent, and food is tolerable at worst and usually quite decent. ([[User:Chunbum Park|Chunbum Park]] 18:44, 17 February 2010 (UTC))

Hi Thomas, while looking over the articles in [[Category:Classics Workgroup]] I noticed that there were two articles which had overlapping scopes: [[Latin language]] and [[Latin (language)]]. The latter one was started by yourself and I thought you should know that I've redirected it to the other article. I copied over one of the paragraphs, while the material on which languages descend from Latin was already present. [[User:Richard Nevell|Richard Nevell]] 14:23, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Citizendium suffers from a lack of an arbitration process

When so-called "constables" continue to take sides in editorial disputes, it undermines the entire community. My comments on the talk page of Four color theorem were deleted by constables siding with a contributor who continues to criticize my work as "average", ridden with "minor errors", of only "magazine quality". What's needed is a fair arbitration process. Until then, I'm not contributing here any more.--Thomas Wright Sulcer 03:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

re wiki-converting project

Thomas, are you administering the wiki-converting project, and if so, are you receiving submissions? —Anthony.Sebastian 15:39, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

What's this Wiki-converting project?--Thomas Wright Sulcer 16:14, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Latin (language)

Hi Thomas, while looking over the articles in I noticed that there were two articles which had overlapping scopes: Latin language and Latin (language). The latter one was started by yourself and I thought you should know that I've redirected it to the other article. I copied over one of the paragraphs, while the material on which languages descend from Latin was already present. Richard Nevell 14:23, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

'Experiences at Citizendium'

I have restored this deleted page and moved it to your user space, which is generally where this sort of statement goes. John Stephenson (talk) 13:26, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
