I have  worked on Wikipedia for several years, and will continue to do so. That said, there are several aspects of this project that I find more attractive than Wikipedia, so I will contribute here also.  It has usually been my custom at Wikipedia to write fairly complete  articles from the beginning.  I have found that my text doesn't get changed much. (This may be in part because I write articles in obscure areas.) It is my understanding of the GFDL and Citizendium's policy that it would acceptable for me to go to the history of an article I started at Wikipedia and cut and paste the original version here without checking the article as being "from Wikipedia".  Am I correct in this understanding?
