About me
editI mostly use the source editor over the visual editor, but use the latter for referencing and I use ProveIt for citations, as I'm not too good at using the templates. I joined Wikipedia to try and improve the article Gulval. I made a scattergraph of the guesses over at the eight-million pool. (I am red.)
