Some ideas for contributions
Hei Rolf, welcome aboard CZ. Hayford has already given you some hints as to how things work here in general, and I wish to add some more practical suggestions on what possibilities you have to contribute. For a start, I just took some of the keywords from the information you supplied upon registration, and display below the current state of related CZ articles (for icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc):
Nature [r]: The physical world. [e]
Science [r]: The organized body of knowledge based on non–trivial refutable concepts that can be verified or rejected on the base of observation and experimentation [e]- Ornithology [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Bird [r]: The class of animals (aves) that can be distinguished from all other living animals by the presence of feathers. [e]
- Birding [r]: Add brief definition or description
Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
Agriculture [r]: The process of producing food, feed, fiber and other goods by the systematic raising of plants and animals. [e]- Computer science [r]: The study of how computers work, and the algorithms, data structures and design principles used in their operation and programming. [e]
- Software development [r]: Processes and procedures for developing software that matches the needs and requirements of a user. [e]
- Norwegian language [r]: North Germanic language spoken primarily in Norway; 4.7 million speakers. [e]

- Norway [r]: A constitutional monarchy in northern Europe on the western side of the Scandinavian Peninsula. [e]
- Oslo [r]: Capital and largest city of Norway. [e]
In order to find articles dealing with similar topics, it's also worth looking at the Related Article subpages of such an article (or the [r]).
Furthermore, in case you are involved in homework assignments, please consider doing so via Eduzendium articles.
Finally, you can help future newcomers by giving your feedback on the above suggestions. To do so, please leave a note on my talk page.
