Some ideas for contributions
Hi Sharon, welcome aboard CZ. Roger 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):

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.
You can help future newcomers by giving your feedback on the above suggestions. To do so, please leave a note on my talk page.
Finally, you may be interested in participating in this experiment that I will be running for a few more days.
