Hi, I'm shapeyness (formerly Alduin2000) 
I edit in a range of topics but I'm most proud of my work in articles related to philosophy, particularly Quine–Putnam indispensability argument, explanatory indispensability argument, and Working from Within: The Nature and Development of Quine's Naturalism.
As much as I'd like to pretend, my previous username is not an obscure allusion to French history, but to Skyrim, which I was obsessed with as soon as it came out. As an editor, I firmly believe that gaming and internet culture are worthy of encyclopedic coverage, and are capable of serious, academic analysis. So far I haven't been able to reach that ideal much, but I have edited a few articles on YouTubers, including Jacksepticeye which I brought to GA, and political YouTubers such as Carl Benjamin and Vaush. I hope that one day the YouTuber article will become a serious and informative article.
As a reader, I often browse articles on albums and music, but edit them less often - some examples of articles I've edited are Black Dresses albums, Venetian Snares x Daniel Lanois and Everything's Fine.
My editing on Wikipedia mostly involves content creation, but I do semi-regularly contribute to deletion discussions and have recently begun giving some attention to featured article candidate discussions. I also occasionally search for CC or public domain images on YouTube (which is massively under-utilised for free images) and random university archives. Some of the images I was most happy to find were of Charles Parsons, Alvin Goldman, and Gongsun Long, which previously didn't have any images on Commons.
To do/reminders: Science Without Numbers, transparency of experience, get back to metaepistemology at some point, companions in guilt argument, try to write a good history section for philosophy of mathematics (see sources here, draft here), possible future improvements to explanatory indispensability argument
