Hey, I'm SpikeShroom (or Spike)! I'm nonbinary and go by they/them pronouns. I also have a B.A. in Spanish and Math. However, on Wikisource I've found a niche in sacred texts, though I also branch out to whatever piques my interest. I know LaTeX and tend to fix up a lot of math notation whenever I encounter it. A couple guilty pleasures are fixing random title pages and tables of contents, so let me know if you need help with those!
