Hello, it's me.

I'm an active editor "apparently trying" to improve history-related pages. My area of interest mostly lies in the Arab conquest of Persia and Spanish Golden Age. Currently, I'm involved in fixing grammatical errors such as subject-verb agreement errors, improper punctuation, incorrect spelling, inappropriate word choices and etc. I believe that every page must be well organized and paragraphs must adhere to strict unity in their ideas.

Feel free to leave me a message in my talk page. Thank you!

All is going well so far.

Ice eggs
Ice eggs, also known as ice balls, are a rare phenomenon caused by a process in which small pieces of sea ice in open water are rolled over by wind and currents in freezing conditions and grow into spheroid pieces of ice. They sometimes collect into heaps of balls on beaches where they pack together in striking patterns. The gentle churn of water, blown by a suitably stiff breeze, makes concentric layers of ice form on a seed particle that then grows into the floating ball as it rolls through the freezing currents. This formation of ice eggs was photographed in 2014 on Stroomi Beach in Tallinn, Estonia. The temperature was around −20 to −15 °C (−4 to 5 °F), and the diameter of each ball around 5 to 10 centimetres (2 to 4 in).Photograph credit: Aleksandr Abrosimov
