I hope you stick around and keep contributing to Wikipedia.

My name is David, and I'm originally from Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh. I currently live in Bengaluru. My interests include sports, social justice, health, and politics, with a particular focus on elections.

I have created over 1,200 articles in about two years, during 2024 and 2025. My interest is primarily biographies of Indian sportspersons and I watch elected politicians (MLAs).

For any questions or discussions related to Indian events, please use my talk page or email me at: davidindia@gmail.com, and please be mindful of the stealth canvassing guideline.

When we initially met, you had less than twenty articles. In less than a year, you've published about 700 articles, which is incredible. Thank you for your contributions, and I hope you will stay on wikipedia for a very long time. Thilsebatti (talk) 03:48, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
