Welcome!
Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages.

Some ideas for contributions
Hei Geir, 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):
History [r]: Study of past human events based on evidence such as written documents. [e]
Military history [r]: The study of armed conflict between nations or other identifiable groups, and the many components, background factors, and implications and impact of those conflicts on nations, individuals and perceptions. [e]- Mental game [r]: Add brief definition or description
- World War II [r]: (1931–1945) global war killing 53 million people, with the "Allies" (UK, US, Soviet Union) eventually halting aggressive expansion by the "Axis" (Nazi Germany and Japan). [e]
Norwegian language [r]: North Germanic language spoken primarily in Norway; 4.7 million speakers. [e]- Store Norske Leksikon [r]: The largest print encyclopedia issued in Bokmål, and the second largest online (after the Norwegian Wikipedia); published by Kunnskapsforlaget. [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.
Looking forward to fruitful collaborative editing, --Daniel Mietchen 02:02, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
