My Wikipedia bottle in a sea cave in Cascais, Portugal.I quite literally risked my life to take this picture halfway down a cliff near Boca do Inferno. Hi I'm Raydann! and welcome to my userpage. I majorly take part in reverting vandalism, but I also often make changes here and there. I have the attention span of a cat, so at one instant you could see me reverting vandalism, the next moment at WP:RM, next you know is I'm reporting a user to UAA or ARV, and so on. Initially I liked to do maintenance tasks more than working on articles, but lately I'm getting the hang of article creation. You can see a list of articles created by me here. If you think I made a mistake somewhere, please do let me know about it on my talk page. Thanks & Welcome.

Disclaimer
[edit]I have never edited Wikipedia in exchange for payment, nor do I have any financial interest in any of my article creations or edits. I do, however, have the following connections:
I am currently serving as the Wikimedian-in-Residence at the Central library of the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi. I do not receive any financial compensation for this role.
Affected article(s)
[edit]I formerly served as a voting board member of the executive board of DCW, a WMF recognized user-group affiliate. DCW supports expenses of some of my outreach activities.
I am the founder of this Initiative.
I am the founder of this initiative, and am working in my capacity as a Wikimedian-in-Residence appointed by the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs. I do not receive any financial compensation for this role. Articles created as part of this initiative were solely for the advancement of knowledge on those topics. I have no financial interest or biasedness for any related article, nor have I received any compensation for such edits.
Affected articles:
[edit]- Youth, Peace, and Security
- Humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons
- Oslo Conference on the humanitarian impact of nuclear weapons
- Nayarit Conference
- United Nations Regional Centre for Peace and Disarmament in Asia and the Pacific
- United Nations Regional Centre for Peace and Disarmament in Africa

- Youth Leader Fund - At the time of creating this article, I had no connection to the subject. Subsequently, I was selected for this program, and developed a COI. I refrained from editing the article again.
The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs and UNRCPD is aware of these article creations, and they support my W4D activities (I had a meeting with the staff of both agencies where I pitched a GLAM model for their organization). However, neither organization has influenced the content or the creation of these articles in any way.
Exchange program
[edit]I was an exchange student to the United States. With the articles I created during this time, similarly, I had and have no financial interest of biasedness towards.
Affected articles:
[edit]Apart from the articles mentioned above, I have no affiliations, bias, or financial interests in any of the articles I have created, except for Syed Abid Husain Senior Secondary School, for which I have an institutional COI. I have a genuine interest in these fields, and the creation of such articles is solely for the purpose of disseminating knowledge.
