Welcome!

Welcome, new editor! We're very glad you've joined us. Here are pointers for a quick start. Also, when you get a chance, please read The Editor Role. You can look at Getting Started for other helpful introductory pages. It is essential for you as an editor to join the Citizendium-Editors (broadcast) mailing list in order to stay abreast of editor-related issues, as well as the mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. It is also important, for project-wide matters, to join the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and thank you! We appreciate your willingness to share your expertise, and we hope to see your edits on Recent changes soon.

Background colour

Hello, Supten. I could not find the option to change the background color. At my computer, everything appears too dark. I would like to replace background color either to RGB 1 1 1 or to CMYK 0 0 0 0 . Could you help please? Dmitrii Kouznetsov 00:44, 20 May 2008 (CDT)

One solution is to go to the "My preferences" link at the top of the page and choose monobook for the skin instead of the current default skin. Not exactly what you want but it will give you a lighter background. Chris Day 01:48, 20 May 2008 (CDT)

Oh, much better! Thank you, Chris! Dmitrii Kouznetsov 05:58, 20 May 2008 (CDT)

PS: If you leave a message for someone on your own talk page, they may not see it unless they happen to look at your talk page, or notice it on 'Recent Changes'. Better to leave them on the other person's talk page... :-) J. Noel Chiappa 07:50, 20 May 2008 (CDT)

Dear Noel. Thank you for the suggestion. I should post there if anything urgent. But I post here questions for those who read the 'recent changes' (or are interested in my activity).

I upload pics in formats jpg, gif, png. They are difficult to write, almost imposible to correct errors, have poor resolution and are slow to load. I tried to upload eps figure, but got the following mesage: ".eps" is an unwanted file type. List of allowed file types: png, gif, jpg, jpeg, ogg. What do I wrong?

name for code

Hi Dmitrii i moved that page to something without the http hereTetrationAsymptoticParameters00. It might be better on the CZ:Code subpage (as you can see we have not really got the code pages going yet, see a brief summary here: CZ:Subpages#Non-text_media ) of an article, which would this go with in the form of Article name/Code/TetrationAsymptoticParameters00? Or maybe I am misunderstanding the role for this page? Chris Day 08:56, 23 May 2008 (CDT)

Thank you, Chris. Name for that pic looks fine. Please, look also at . The source (code) is inside. Sould we extract the code into a separate file? Dmitrii Kouznetsov 09:53, 23 May 2008 (CDT)

P.S.Chris, please, look at CZ:Code. I fill it according to my understanding of your message. Dmitrii Kouznetsov 19:58, 23 May 2008 (CDT)

Code submission

Dmitrii, I opened a discussion http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,1742.0.html on code submission. For obvious reasons I like to hear your opinion, too. --Paul Wormer 09:47, 27 May 2008 (CDT)

Timeline in biography

Hi Dmitrii, according to the biography section of your user page, your Ph.D. was awarded two years before graduation. Is that so, or possibly a typographical error? ... Peter Lyall Easthope 08:55, 30 September 2008 (CDT)

Thank you, Peter. I just corrected 1978 to 1988. Dmitrii Kouznetsov 16:26, 3 October 2008 (CDT)

categories at citizendium

Hi Dmitrii, good to see you back. Before you put more time into categories I should warn you that we do not use categories in the same way as at wikipedia. All the categories are placed on the articles by the subpages template based on the information in the metadata template. In short there should be no categories on any pages.

Instead of hierarchial category trees we develop the Related Articles subpage to be used as a navigation aid. It would be possible to start a subgroup on mathematical functions. One example of a subgroup can be seen at CZ:Chemical Engineering Subgroup. Let me know if you need more info. Chris Day 03:07, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
