A Little Bit About Me

Baked is a minor contributor to the English Wikipedia. I have just started contributing to Wikipedia, I do not do it religiously, but when I see a problem or when I see a need for an article to be expanded. I have trivial knowledge on certain topics pertaining to different areas of life.

I enjoy reading comics, especially Peanuts and Dilbert.

I am also a big sports fan. I support the Los Angeles Lakers as well as the Los Angeles Dodgers. My other favorite teams are the Oakland Athletics, the San Jose Sharks and the newly revitalized San Jose Earthquakes.

Current Events

I strongly support people's knowledge of current events. That is why I have supplied the largest headlines (which can also be found on Wikipedia's Main Page), and the picture of the day (which can as well be found on the Main Page).

Picture of the day The Valère Basilica is a fortified Catholic church in Sion, in the Swiss canton of Valais. It is situated on a hill at an altitude of 615 metres (2,018 ft), and faces Tourbillon Castle located on the opposite hill. The first parts of the building were constructed around 1100, with numerous additions over the subsequent centuries. It was designated a minor basilica in 1987. The site is a listed as a Swiss heritage site of national significance, which includes the surrounding hill due to the large number of protected plant and animal species present there. This photograph shows the Valère Basilica in February 2021, with the Haut de Cry, a 2,969-metre (9,741 ft) peak of the Bernese Alps, in the background.Photograph credit: Christian David
