Who Am I?

Hello! I read Wikipedia quite often and make largely minor edits adding details or notable facts to politicians from history. I also have an interest in entomology, albeit not nearly at the level to be qualified to edit Wikipedia for it. This userpage is generally used for my Wikiboxes for my Reddit alternate election series Peacock-Shah Alternate Elections.

I am always happy to make acquaintances here and would thus be overjoyed to find any messages on my talk page.
