Wassup! My name's Ken and I'm from the beautiful state of Kerala in India. To say about me, I started my Wikipedia journey on 2 October 2020 when I was all messed up and bored like everyone due to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown. I still don't know what I was doing but I kinda decided to edit Lionel Messi's article, but failed miserably due to the article being under extended-protection. That's when I created an account and made my first edit in Leo Messi's talk page pleading the concerned Wikipedians to let me edit by pretending to be a 'school teacher' (yeah, I know it's stupid). It wasn't exactly a finest of origin story, but hey, everyone has to begin somewhere! Since then, I've moved on to more serious contributions, especially in the world of football a.k.a the beautiful game. My main focus area is on articles related to the Indian Super League club, Kerala Blasters FC.

Kerala Blasters FC isn’t just a club to me; it’s my heart. In Kerala, football takes the spotlight, unlike in many other parts of India where cricket reigns supreme. The club was established when I was just 8 years old, and it is safe to say that the club's rapid rise in popularity quickly captured my young heart. While many in India cheer for European giants like Manchester United, FC Barcelona, or Real Madrid, I’m bit different. Yep, FC Barcelona is my European favorite, but my true love for football was sparked by KBFC.

I created my first Wikipedia article about George D'Souza, which marked my entry into the world of article creation. Since then, I’ve been working on Kerala Blasters FC’s season articles as well as on its related sub-articles since the 2021–22 season, making sure they’re as detailed and current as possible. During my early days in Wikipedia, after making a lot of mistakes along the path of learning the basics of editing an article, I dedicated a lot of time and effort in improving the BLP articles for players like Harmanjot Khabra, Rowllin Borges, Pritam Kotal, Amrinder Singh, Akash Mishra etc. I also took on the challenge of fixing up the "List of international goals scored by Neymar," which was in desperate need of some serious reconstruction, until I made it heavenly as it is today (so narcissistic of me!).

My editing approach is pretty straightforward: I’m all about getting accurate information out there and making sure it’s well-sourced. I strongly believe in maintaining neutrality (NPOV) and in citation of reliable sources. That is why I’m a Pending Changes Reviewer, and an occasional Recent Changes Patroller. I'm also a reviewer at the Articles for Creation (AfC), and a Rollbacker. If and you’re new to Wikipedia have an interest in Indian football, I’d be delighted to help—just drop me a line!

For general messages, feel free to leave a note on my talk page; I usually get back to you within a day. For private matters (as in if you know how to stop Messi), you can email me. I’m in the Arabia Standard Time zone and am usually active in the afternoons and late at night. My schedule might shift if exams come knocking, but I’m also around in the mornings during holidays or when I take a break from studying and all the other stuff that a normal person does daily.

And finally, if you believe I've made a mistake, feel free leave a civil message on my talk page—I promise I’ll fix them faster than a Roberto Carlos free-kick!
