ello everyone. I am Vivvt, one of the editors on the Wikipedia, joined with the main purpose to improve articles and provide sources for facts put forward. Most of my time is spent in finding out the valid sources for the lesser known facts, which I enjoy doing myself. And Google Rocks for that !!
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestions for me or just want to drop by to say "Hi!" you are more than welcome to leave me a message on my talk page.
