User:Thebiguglyalien
I'm Thebiguglyalien (he/him), but I also answer to TBUA, BUA, and Alien. I'm a lifelong resident of Arizona, and my hobbies include editing Wikipedia. I created my account in 2015, my first edit was in 2017, and I became a regular contributor in February 2022. I edit in various areas, especially history and political science.
Most of my contributions are content writing, overhauling unloved articles to get them to good article status. I also engage in review work from time to time. You might see me around Women in Green, Good Article Nominations, or any one of the brief interests I pursue before moving on to something else.
I do GAN reviews on request, but only if it's about a country where I've never done a review before (see the last column in my articles per country) and if your review/nomination ratio is greater than one.
Any allegations that I'm an alien from Mars bent on intergalactic conquest are entirely baseless and unfounded.
