I'm Brian, a recent university graduate who is currently working as a computer programmer in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. Previously, I was a Philosophy student matriculated at The University of West Georgia/UWG in Carrollton, Georgia. I add to Wikipedia fairly fequently (and often in late-night bursts). My main interests are Analytic philosophy, Ethics, The United States Armed Forces, Jeeps, Just War Theory, the German language, Military history, Ireland, Military technology and equipment, Martial Arts, and Photography. I'm also involved in WikiProject Weaponry, WikiProject Illustration, and WikiProject Philosophy. To answer a question I'm sure is going to arise at some point or another: Yes, Carrollton is a lower level of hell so I'm glad to be at my current residence in Tennessee.

[edit] Future work
WikiProject Philosophy task list
- German Idealism and almost all the articles related to it need to be either rewritten or expanded, because a wikipedia user called Lestrade has, among other things, taken it upon himself to imbue each page with bias in favour of Schopenhauer, who he attempts to present as having the last say in everything. This is a terrible thing to do, because German Idealism is such an important period in philosophy, whose influence is still strongly felt today.
- Protected Values first section confuses right action and values and needs a copy edit, moving and wikifying
- Ludwig Wittgenstein is having its FA status reviewed due to a couple of concerns. Help save Ludwig! See Wikipedia:Featured article review/Ludwig Wittgenstein for requirements for retaining FA status.
- 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.
- Star of Sophia Vote for or nominate someone you think is deserving!
- Analytic_philosophy This is a very major topic, but still has several sections which are stubs, and several topics which are not covered.
- Inverse (logic) This article makes me wish that there were a fail grade on the quality scale. Someone should rewrite it.

I need to get a lot more done in philosophy. The military stuff is fun, but I'm pretty sure a monkey could be trained to extract data from a website (and a few books) and then write an article about it. It doesn't require any style or thought. Writing philosophy pages necessitates both.
