Folks, let me underscore that we do need quite a few new constables. If we're going to further liberalize the CZ sign-up procedure, which we really want to do (see http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,426.0.html), we need your help!
NOTE, if you have previously applied to become a constable, please simply let us know if you are still willing to do this! Primarily, you are needed to make sure new arrivals are making accounts correctly and are adding bios. Our present constables are working pretty hard, and with a liberalized system of "soft security," they may not be able to stay on top of the workload themselves. We still have a backlog of applications under the present system. So we really do need your help! --Larry > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, January 16, 2007 12:02 AM > To: Main Citizendium > Subject: [Citizendium-l] Call for Constables > > > Hello fellow citizendians, > > I am writing you as Citizendium's Chief Constable.
