I created this account to help with the Tennis articles; which relate to the Tennis Portal. I am eclectic in my interests, with a few strong points here and there. ( Ibid. Avicennasis) I am appalled at general vandalism as much as overzealous editors. I promote The 10 Simple Rules. I have been known to make updates in any of the categories listed on the right.

Who am I?
