The subject of my editing jumps around quite a lot, but generally focuses on invertebrates, WP: namespace work, and minor fixes I make when reading other articles. I seem to spend a lot of my time here adding better infobox images to articles on animals. So it goes!

Pet peeves
People who use commas incorrectly, yet also people who are too pedantic about arbitrary grammar rules. (Split infinitives are not sins.) The philosophy that lead to semantic HTML. Using "liberal" to mean "left-wing". Using possessives with unnecessary esses, like Hobbes's or Jones's. (Damn you, MOS:S'S).
