About 1,000 edits as User:Eat me, I'm a red bean. Am just posting here to show that I am really alone.

I've edited a few, mostly in music categories.

I’ve made a bunch of format, spelling and grammar corrections here and there, and translated a few articles and a couple of images.

I used to be a regular editor up until a few years ago. Dunno how many edits I have, but I did end up learning a lot, especially about really obscure topics. It really helped my formal writing and copy-editing skills, and I learned a little bit about coding, too.
