I developed a passion for Football (soccer) in the early 2010's and found many Wikipedia sources valuable to increasing my knowledge and passion of the game. I made my first small edit in 2017, but didn't follow through much after that. In 2021, I re-started with minor edits to the 2021 Austin FC season and the Copa Tejas pages. I have now learned about templates, userboxes, and infoboxes, enjoying my work with all of those. I continue to grow as an editor and appreciate the feedback I receive from both amateur editors and those with a vast amount of experience on Wikipedia.
After learning about WikiProjects I started working on topics in which I have interests. I am not trying to be an editor that makes massive edits, but instead I have decided to do the scut work of fixing minor edits (dead links, orphan articles, broken anchors, assessments, etc}. While doing this I look to add existing pages to corresponding WikiProjects in an attempt to continue to grow the information available.

The motto of the AIW is conservata veritate, which translates to "with the preserved truth".
This motto reflects the inclusionist desire to change Wikipedia only when no knowledge would be lost as a result.
