Hi I'm Raydann! and welcome to my userpage. I majorly take part in reverting vandalism, but I also often make changes here and there. I have the attention span of a cat, so at one instant you could see me reverting vandalism, the next moment at WP:RM, next you know is I'm reporting a user to UAA or ARV, and so on. Initially I liked to do maintenance tasks more than working on articles, but lately I'm getting the hang of article creation. You can see a list of articles created by me here. If you think I made a mistake somewhere, please do let me know about it on my talk page. Thanks & Welcome.

The slide deck I presented for GLAM outreach to UNODA and UNRCPD

The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs and UNRCPD is aware of these article creations, and they support my W4D activities (I had a meeting with the staff of both agencies where I pitched a GLAM model for their organization). However, neither organization has influenced the content or the creation of these articles in any way.

Exchange program

Apart from the articles mentioned above, I have no affiliations, bias, or financial interests in any of the articles I have created, except for Syed Abid Husain Senior Secondary School, for which I have an institutional COI.
