All, I'd like to invite you to nominate topics for a pilot project for the subpage and subproject component of the "CZ 2.0" initiative.
Basically, pick an encyclopedia topic. Then, we'll create a bunch of subpages devoted to different types of information on that topic: * Links: expanding and annotated the list of Web links about the topic * Bibliography: annotating and, if necessary, expanding the list of important published books and articles on the topic * Categories: creating an excellent list of subtopics, supertopics, and related topics * Catalogs: one or more pages containing almanac-type information about some aspect of the topic, in tabular form; see, e.g., catalog of religions) * Gallery: an image gallery * Invited, signed articles: one or more possibly "biased" articles written by real exclusively by experts * Debate guide: one or more pages giving a "map of the dialectical landscape," an account of the arguments on all sides of a controversial issue about the topic * News guide: one or more pages summarizing of ongoing stories about the topic (such that a story itself will probably not become its own encyclopedia article!) * Tutorials: one or more pages that introduce a topic specifically for students; would be focused on more "practical" aspects of the topic, have more examples, and even perhaps some problems at the bottom of the page * Timelines: one or more pages giving a timeline about some aspect of the topic So, if you choose [[Biology]] (just to pick an example), we would proceed to create [[Biology/Links]], [[Biology/Bibliography]], [[Biology/Categories]], etc. This will be the topic to which we give, for the first time, the "complete" Citizens' Compendium treatment. Should be interesting and fun. Nominations, please, here: http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Subpage_Pilot If you nominate or vote, however, you must make at least one edit to a new subpage! :-) --Larry _______________________________________________ Citizendium-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.purdue.edu/mailman/listinfo/citizendium-l
