User:Aknell4/About

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I'm a Canadian citizen, originally born in Sri Lanka. I was first introduced to Wikipedia back in the early 2010s, although I wouldn't start editing for a while after that. I did some editing under previous pseudonyms until 2018. I stayed away from Wikipedia from then until November 2020, when I started a draft about the Patriots Party which ended up getting declined.

I continued on Wikipedia, however, coming back when Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh died. I then expanded and developed 2021 Baghdad hospital fire and got it to In the news.

I continued editing, and I saw that Parliament Hill wasn't a Good Article yet, so I worked on that. I got it to GA status on 9 June, and it became my first Did you know article on 2 July.

I don't really venture out into other Wikimedia projects, although I do have a global user page which redirects here (thanks Bilinghurst).

I'm currently pursuing a B.Eng. degree in Aerospace Engineering at Toronto Metropolitan University.
