About Me
General
I am from the United States, but I consider myself to be a citizen of the world (Like the song by the Village People). I have secondary education on the topics of English Literature, Astronomy, U.S. History, Biology, Chemistry, and Economics, but I mainly consume knowledge through Wikipedia these days!
I created this account mainly because I feel a strong compulsion to correct mistakes when I see them, and I believe that scientific consensus is the greatest invention of man. There is no (known) being other than humans to have developed such a system for discovering the truth, and I think that Wikipedia numbers among humanity's greatest efforts to compile this knowledge!
I am interested in topics such as poison dart frogs, theoretical rocket engines, medieval history, epistemology, cetaceans, and much more. Much of my love of knowledge is related to writing; I am an amateur fantasy and science fiction author.
How I Edit
I generally make edits when I am reading a Wikipedia article and something bugs me about it. When something is within my grasp to change, I am not the kind of person who leaves a thing unpolished. Thus, Wikipedia is an excellent home for me! Because I do not go out of my way to find edits to make, I seldom introduce new facts to articles (although I am interested in doing so in the future). Most of my edits so far have been intended to clean up messy wording or fact-check uncited claims.
My Dream
I would like to see a world where information is free and widely available, and everybody recognizes the value of truth. I want a day to come when I will no longer have to distinguish between scientific consensus and public consensus, for I think all people should adopt science as their preferred fact-finding method. I consider anything I can do to contribute to that vision to be a duty.
My Projects
Literature
I am currently working on a fantasy/sci-fi novel, but I will not include its name out of respect for Wikipedia's rules against self-promotion. Whenever I use a Wikipedia page during its process, I will paste it under the research heading!
Research
Huolongchushui: This ancient Chinese rocket design is super cool, and I plan to use it to inspire interesting forms of weaponry/artillery while keeping a fantasy aesthetic!
