Some ideas for contributions
Dear Brian,
welcome aboard CZ. Chris 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 am displaying below the current state of CZ articles related to some of the topics you mention in your bio or that I know to be of interest to you (I am following you on Twitter). For icon documentation, see Template:Rpl/Doc:
