Hello, I'm Ben. I joined Wikipedia by creating this account on December 28, 2012; however, I started editing much more actively in April 2014. My main focuses on Wikipedia are NASCAR-, game show-, and IndyCar-related articles; I am a member of all three WikiProjects in those areas. In addition, I am a fan of Formula One and all other major sports in general, and will occasionally edit pages related to those topics as well.
I recently graduated college and am working full-time, so I'm not as active here as I once was, though I still try to maintain certain areas of this project as my time allows. If you need anything from me, just leave a message on my talk page, and I'll get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks! --Bcschneider53 (talk) 04:11, 5 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for stepping in and helping to improve Ronnie Amadi! I'm glad it could reach GA despite my schedule recently. I'm hoping I can return to content editing a bit soon; I miss it. ~ Rob13Talk 00:27, 22 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for your work on this seasonal item. I've raised a couple of issues at WP:ERRORS and I suppose you're the best person to address them, please. Andrew D. (talk) 09:38, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
This user found an article that was close to meeting the GA criteria, did a little bit of work, and carried it over the finish line helping Stewart Friesen to achieve good article status.
