I'm relatively new to actively editing Wikipedia, although I cannot remember when I started using Wikipedia as a resource. I want to contribute to Wikipedia because I think I can make it better. Isn't that why everyone does it?

I am somewhat educated on the subjects of Ancient warfare, especially Ancient Roman Warfare (warfare during the Republican and Empirical Periods), and Ancient History, more specifically Roman History. My interest in these areas was sparked when I first played Rome: Total War by Creative Assembly. I read further into this era of Military History and I was fascinated by what I saw, most astounding are the accomplishments of Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar, among others.

Articles I've Made
None yet, although I have submitted several source texts on WikiSource.

Articles I've Contributed to
Many of the ancient warfare (especially the Roman military) articles have something of mine in there somewhere. The following are articles I have edited or contributed to in a notable way.

Marian reforms

Testudo formation

Roman infantry tactics, strategy and battle formations

Military establishment of the Roman Republic

Source Texts Contributed
Note: On the following I contributed unwikified source texts, and added links to the Latin WikiSource texts and vice-versa. All other editing, wikifying, etc. is by other users and I extend my sincere thanks to them for their work.
