All,

I just want to call your attention to two pages.

(1) This is a brand new proposal from me.  I'm proposing that we list, own
up to, and apologize for our major errors, to be placed on a Corrections
talk page.  The concept is similar to the journalistic practice of listing
corrections with the apology, "we regret the error."  The details here:

http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Proposals/Self-Correction_Policy

The proposal has many benefits, I think, not least of which is that we
improve our credibility and cause people (including journalists) to ask,
"Why isn't Wikipedia doing this, like Citizendium?"

Anyway--any feedback on that?

(2) The "Bold Moves" page still exists and is still in use:

http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Bold_Moves

Please use it if you do anything that has any reasonably sweeping
consequences, like adopting a new template, a new rule or convention, etc.
If it's already in [[CZ:Proposals]], no need to put it on [[CZ:Bold Moves]].
The latter page is for important stuff we are just doing without asking
anybody's permission!  We do love that sort of boldness (see
http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Be_Bold ... or daring, or initiative, or
whatever you like...).  But it is crucial, to take full advantage of all the
"eyeballs" available on CZ that our more significant "moves" be out in the
open.  So please consider [[CZ:Bold Moves]] a crucial component in
maintaining a fully transparent and collaborative community.

I've been absolutely delighted, by the way, with the excellent activity
we've been seeing on the wiki lately.  I chalk this up to Derek Harkness'
new skin, and maybe also the new Quick Start page (check it out if you
haven't yet: http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Quick_Start).
