A list of my contributions to my pet topic of Orthodoxy in AustralasiaOrthodoxWiki can be found [[Special:Contributions/Pistevo|here]]. I have made over 5000 edits on OrthodoxWiki.

my [[User:Pistevo/sandbox|sandbox]] has my articles-to-If I err, I do listso unintentionally. feel free Please try to pitch look on my errors with forgiveness and gentle reproof before bringing inthe insults and/or prejudice.
