Howdy! My web codename and daring alter ego is known as Banes (the nickname of an earthling called Daniel). I will now tell you a bit about myself (not too much mind you). I live in Cape Town, South Africa, a beautiful location. I discovered the WWW ( Wonderful World of Wiki ) early July of 2005. I like to edit as much as possible, but am not that bold because I am afraid of doing it wrong and annoying someone, I also enjoy reading through the wealth of information that can be found here on Wikipedia.
I am interested in political things, flight, history (especially WWII) and music. I predict that those shall be my main areas of future editing. To date I have authored quite few new articles, and done many a difficut destubbing, plus multiple minor edits. I recently took an interest in vandal fighting, and found it quite enjoyable. From time to time I welcome users and hope to start sending birthday greetings in the near future. I am also a member of three Wikiprojects.
I have a computer, (duh!) but although I am an avid gamer and internet user, I am rather internet illiterate. Therefore, please forgive me if you see any signs of internet stupidity in my edits. I try not to put POV into my edits, but if you see any, however, please let me know and I will rectify the situation. We all have our point of view, the trick is not to show it in an edit. I know I am not perfect. I am open to suggestions and am happy to help on any projects in which I have knowledge. I hope you find Wiki as helpful as I have!

Bye bye
Thanks for reading my user page. Glad you took the time. Feel free to drop me a line if you want me to help out with anything. Goodbye...and: If you are of the juvenile mindset who would wish to vandalize this page, you are most welcome. Only the best editors get their user pages vandalized, think of it as a mark of editing greatness, to be acknowledged by petty vandalism!:)
