Hello everyone! I am Ghinga7. I am a bit new to Wikipedia, so let me tell you about myself.


I first signed up for Wikipedia to compete in the Wiki Loves monuments in 2017. It was a wonderful experience, and, although I did not win, I got introduced to editing Wikipedia.

Over the 2 years I have made many small edits and a handful of major ones. I am currently working on a humorous article that I'm hoping to get approved by the Wikipedia Department of Fun. (I tend to contribute in ways that don't matter much) You can view that here.

I am a very big fan of sports, especially baseball. My favorite team is the Tampa Bay Rays, although I also like the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chicago Cubs. Ice Hockey is my 2nd favorite sport, with the Tampa Bay Lightning being my favorite hockey team.

My academic interests include history (especially Colonial America and Ancient world history) and Jehovah's Witnesses (as I am one). I really enjoy reading also. See "On my Bookshelf" below.

This user is interested in the
History of the

If for any reason you feel any need to contact me, please leave a message on my talk page.

Salutations,

Ghinga7
