Introduction
editIt's about time that I'm here. I've been using Wikipedia for years but have not contributed until now. I came here mainly to post references to some important information for a couple of articles. I might contribute actual content later if I feel qualified.
Thanks to all the users who have created this incredible resource that has been an invaluable research tool for me. Now I'd like to do what I can to repay the favor.
