== 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 [[User:Ralph J. Stalter, Jr.|public biography]] or check on the progress of [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Ralph_J._Stalter,_Jr. any pages you've edited so far].
 
Citizendium now has over [[:Category:CZ Live|16,000 articles]], with more than [[:Category:Approved Articles|150 approved]] by specialist [[CZ:The Editor Role|Editors]] such as yourself, but our contributor numbers require a boost. We have an initiative called '[[CZ:Eduzendium|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 [[:Category:Computers_Developed_Articles|Computers]] and [[:Category:Theater_Developed_Articles|Theater]] articles that could be improved and approved, and some [[CZ:Core Articles/Applied Arts and Sciences|high-priority Applied Sciences articles]] that we don't have yet. You can also create new articles via [[CZ:Start_Article|this guide]], and contribute to some Computers or Theater pages that have been recently edited [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Special:RecentChangesLinked&target=Category%3AComputers_tag here] and [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Special:RecentChangesLinked&target=Category%3ATheater_tag here] - or to [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges any others] on Citizendium, since you're a general [[CZ:The Author Role|Author]] as well as a specialist Editor. You may like to contribute to discussions in the [http://forum.citizendium.org forums], and might consider running for an elected position on the [[CZ:Management Council|Management]] and [http://ec.citizendium.org Editorial] Councils that oversee the project.
 
If you have any questions, let me know via my [[User talk:John Stephenson|Talk page]] or by leaving a message below this one. Thank you for signing up and reading this update; I hope that you will [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=Special:MyTalk look in] on our community soon.
