Thanks, Shirley. I'll post about this on Nautilus (Nature PG's author blog) set to go live tomorrow am (Monday 22nd). - Maxine

Thanks for the link Shirley. However, even if Citizendium is a nice initiative, I find it a little depressing to re-write what is already existing in wikipedia and what I've already edited in wikipedia/freebase etc... - Pierre Lindenbaum

See this Peer to Peer post for a brief round-up of online encyclopaedias (including this one) http://blogs.nature.com/peer-to.... The trust issues are quite complex in collaborative, open sites. Well done to those like Pierre who are selflessly contributing. - Maxine

To Pierre: I'm not sure about this policy, but I think you can just copy-n-paste a Wikipedia article to Citizendium if you plan to work on it. - cow
