Hi! I go by Lilly (she/her), and my special interests include mathematics and philosophy. I mainly edit mathematics/philosophy articles, but I do edit other ones. I believe in universal access to education, which is 25% of my motivation to contribute here, and 75% is just giving back to Wikipedia after been helping me a ton. Outside of academics, I really enjoy the show Battle for Dream Island.

• Draft:Woo (pseudoscience) (declined)

Edit the following pages:

1. Set-Theoretic Topology
2. The Historian's Craft
3. Determinacy (especially the incomplete sections)
4. Homeomorphism group (add more citations)
5. Abstraction#In history (this is a pretty good candidate for adding info about how history is done or written)
6. Frege: Philosophy of Language
7. Linguistic philosophy
8. Naming and necessity (there are other commentaries on the book anyway)
9. Philosophical Fragments
10. Truth-conditional semantics
11. T-sentence

(Might) create the following pages:

1. Time and Narrative (book) (marked abandoned as of Aug 20, 2026, because I don't have the pre-existing philosophical knowledge to read it.)
2. Decomposition (topology)
3. Philosophy of set theory
4. Analytic philosophy of history
5. History of general topology
6. User:PicoMath/The Rule of Metaphor (marked abandoned as of Aug 20, 2026, because I don't have the pre-existing philosophical knowledge to read it.)
7. User:PicoMath/Magic set (mathematics)

• Simple Forms (book)

References to mathematical concepts may change via author; this part I did not learn today (certainly), but what I did learn today was that Kunen apparently uses the term ${\displaystyle BST}${\displaystyle BST} (for Basic Set Theory) for referring to a theory weaker than ZF. ${\displaystyle BST^{-}}${\displaystyle BST^{-}}refers to BST without the Axiom of Foundation. It is only used as an ad-hoc theory by Kunen, however, as to motivate some "weak" finitistic theorems that usually hold on ZFC.
