  • Optimism should have a separate page that focuses on the philosophical idea of optimism and distinguishes the philosophical view from "positive thinking" and other everyday uses of the word.
  • Philosophy of social science, has some okay points but requires elaboration on Wittgenstein and Winch, perhaps other linguistic critiques, whether logical positivist or postmodernist.
  • Exchange value needs to be redone, it shouldn't be under 'Marxist theory'- although it's an important component of Marxist theory it's also vital for all economics. That said the article's weight on Marx is also absurd.
  • German Idealism and the articles related to it may need to be rewritten or expanded to avoid undue weight on Arthur Schopenhauer.
  • Protected values first section confuses right action and values and needs a copy edit, moving and wikifying
  • Quality (philosophy) needs a more clear explanation.
  • Socratic dialogues could do with some tidying and clarification. See the talk page for one suggested change.
  • Problem of universals: The introductory definition is (perhaps) fixed. But, the article is poor. Check out the German version.
  • Teleology: the article is shallow and inconsistent.
  • Existentialism: the quality of this article varies wildly and is in desperate need of expert attention.
  • Analytic philosophy This is a very major topic, but still has several sections which are stubs, and several topics which are not covered.
  • Lifeworld A philosophical concept that seems to have fallen exclusively into the hands of the sociologists. Could use some attention; it's a major and complex issue in phenomenology.
  • Perception Needs the attention of philosophically minded Wikipedians. This is only the start of an overhaul of perception and related articles.

(everything that follows is deeply out of date. While there is some nuggets of truth that still apply, most was written nearly 18 years ago, and doesn't reflect the nuance in my current understandings of myself and the world. Maybe someday I will update.)

  • Throwing "Raves" with my crews the United Altered States (UAS), Funk That Happy Raver Shit (FTHRS), and The Caveman Collective (done in a hip hop motif). It should be noted that we don't throw your typical parties, they are more like modern day acid tests with an attitude.
  • Producing digital visual art & music.
  • Using different methods to free myself & others from self-imposed or otherwise imposed forms of slavery.
  • Relentlessly searching for a compatible female companion.
  • Developing, fine tuning, and implementing various forms of organization principles in order to make my life less confusing.

My current Wikipedia projects include:

  • Revising and making more comprehensive the various List of musicians. This includes things such as:
  • Organizing.
  • Alphabetizing.
  • Adding Artists.
  • Correcting misinformation.
  • Adding "see also" links.
  • Linking the various lists back to the List of Musicians.

That's about it for now.
