Hello, I'm David. Although I created this account in July 2008, I've been familiar with Wikipedia since October 2006. I've been visiting for several years, but it was nearly April 2011 that I started contributing seriously. [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/SwisterTwister Contributions on Commons Wikimedia].

I've participated with anything from: looking for sources, cleaning vandalism, articles for deletion discussion, newpages patrol, recent changes patrol, removing old IP warnings and random article patrol. If users have questions, I'll attempt my best to answer them. This user is being considered for deletion, you can voice your opinion(s) at [[User:GlassCobra/Editor for deletion]]. 

I have started a page [[User:SwisterTwister/Welcome|here]] with basic links that should help new users. As noted there, contact me at my talk page if that page hasn't answered your question(s).

My username is a random fusion of Swiss and twister.
