I am Ben, but picked an old RPG name for my account here; Harrias. I first appeared on Wikipedia back in December 2005, when I voted to keep an article on a website that I was a member of. Not particularly big or clever, creating an account just to vote in an AfD! After bumbling around and making lots of mistakes in various sports articles, I found a happy niche writing about Somerset County Cricket Club related articles. In December 2012, I went through the rigours of an RfA, and got a mop, but my focus remains very much on content.

I've branched out more during my time on Wikipedia, and tend to go through phases of activity. My content creation tends to concentrate on sports (primarily cricket and football) or local and military history, but I have a tendency to get distracted and find other interesting things to write about at times. Alongside writing articles, I try to be an active reviewer of Good, Featured and MilHist A-class nominations.
