Hello, I'm ONUnicorn.  I've been [[Special:Contributions/ONUnicorn|editing]] Wikipedia off and on since 2006.  I became an administrator in 2017.  I've been using this screen name various places on the internet since 1998.  It's a combination of ONU (for [[Olivet Nazarene University]], my [[alma mater]]) and [[Unicorn]] because unicorns have always been my favorite animal (real or mythological).  Of course, this is no guarantee that someone using this screen name someplace else is me, but it probably is.  

In real life, I'm an attorney, but don't hold that against me!

I'm one of those people who is [[Philomath|interested in just about everything]].  I love to learn new things, and to regurgitate things that I have recently learned.  As a result, I edit articles in a wide variety of topics. When I stumble across an article that I think could be better I enjoy making it better.

I studied French in school, and can stumble through some basic translation, but I'm no where near fluent.  I have edited [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilisateur:ONUnicorn French Wikipedia] a little, but not much. I also have made some contributions to [http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:ONUnicorn the Simple English Wikipedia].  It's a fun challenge to limit myself to the word-lists. I have uploaded a few pictures to [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:ONUnicorn Commons], but there are FAR better photographers out there.

I've got some userboxes at the bottom of this page.  They are organized by wikipedia activities, educational achievements, about me, grammar, miscellaneous, and ones that are just silly or fun.  If you have any questions or want to know anything else about me, feel free to ask me on [[User talk:ONUnicorn|my talk page]].

==The story of life ==
There's a sort of proverb that's been floating around for a while.  I remember a teacher passing it out on a flyer in high school, and I've seen it plastered all over the internet since.  I don't know where it comes from, but it's quite applicable to what one sees on Wikipedia if one hangs around long enough.
<blockquote>This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.  There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.  Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.  Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job.  Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn’t do it.  It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have.</blockquote>
The moral of the story, not only as it relates to Wikipedia, but also as it relates to school, work, politics, and home life, indeed, life in general . . . [[WP:SOFIXIT|so fix it!]]

===List===
*[[Children's Village (New York)]] - I rescued it from deletion via a total re-write.  Too bad I was too late to stop the original contributor from deciding Wikipedia wasn't worth his efforts and turning to vandalism. 
*''[[Der Ruf (newspaper)|Der Ruf]]'' - Another stub I found and expanded.  An interesting WWII era propaganda project which had a lasting impact on post-war Germany.  I'm still working on it, hopefully to take it to either GA or FA when I'm done.  
*[[Constitution of Saint Kitts and Nevis]] - a very encyclopedic topic which deserved more than the stub [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Constitution_of_Saint_Kitts_and_Nevis&diff=681847518&oldid=648939671 it started out as]. It was featured on the main page as a DYK.
* ''[[Holland's Magazine]]'' A redlink in [[Ralph Pallen Coleman]], which I found on New Page Patrol made me curious.  So I researched and wrote an article on this. Was featured on the main page as a DYK.
* [[Souk Okaz]] - I found it on new pages patrol as a stub that had someone had tag-bombed. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Souk_Okaz&oldid=660699149 This is what it looked like when I found it.] I did some research and after an hour or two [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Souk_Okaz&oldid=661477818 this is what it looked like.]  
* [[Hammerton Killick]] - Started by [[User:Coolpug05|Coolpug05]], who then posted a couple places asking for people to help with the article.  [[User:Cullen328|Cullen328]] then found some sources for him and pasted them on the talk page, and as I read the stub of an article and then started to read the sources posted by Cullen, I became absolutely fascinated with this segment in Haitian history. I proceeded to largely re-write the article, and then to write a related article on the ''[[Crête-à-Pierrot]]'', Killick's ship. I also intend to continue research in this area and further improve both those two pages and the pages of other players in that particular drama. It was featured on the main page DYK!
* [[Critical Mass (Catholic rock)]] - Most of the actual work on this article was done by [[User:Criticalmassjohn|Criticalmassjohn]], but I helped and fought tooth and nail to save it from deletion.
* [[Wyandotte Caves]] - To start with, I thought I was writing an article from scratch to replace a copyvio.  Then, when I was about half done with it, I discovered Wikipedia had an existing article on the topic.  I merged the two articles and this is the result.  It was even on the main page as a DYK!!!!
* <s>[[Fork in the road]] - Ok, so I added an image.  Ok, so it's a rather dumb little image.  But... I made it myself using paint!  It was the first image I uploaded to Wikipedia.  So what if it's a silly little paint image added to an obscure little article.  I like it.  I'm proud of it.</s> <small>Someone didn't think it added value to the article.  A [[WP:3O|third opinion]] agreed. *sniff*</small>
::Apparently [https://pt.wikiquote.org/wiki/Bifurca%C3%A7%C3%A3o someone liked it], and so did [https://ku.wiktionary.org/wiki/duriyan someone else].

==Articles that I have started==
(Newest at top)
*[[Fashion History Museum]] (sort of)
*[[Advance America]]
*[[J.M. Villars]]
*''[[Holland's Magazine]]''
*''[[Crête-à-Pierrot]]''
*[[Purse party]] - due to an interesting personal experience...
*[[Autophobia]] - for my friend
*[[Dove Awards of 2004]] - Several of these "Dove Awards of ____" articles haven't been made yet.  I decided to work on them.  I made this one.  It was boring.  Maybe someone else will make the rest.  Might be something [[User:Rambot]] could do.  Rambot's the one who made all the articles on small towns using census data.
* [[Ahmed Sofa]] - found it on New page patrol.  It consisted of nothing more then a link to an article on the Bangledesh encyclopedia.  I read the article there, then came back to find the one here speedied.  I created it with some content.
* [[Boyds Bears]] - Someone asked for this on the Village Pump.  I figured, why not?
* [[Indianapolis Capitals]] - Defunct Professional Hockey team.  Needs expansion.
* [[Wyandotte Caves]] - I'm proud of this one.  It was featured in a [[WP:DYK]].
* [[Silvadene]] - a stub.  The red-link in the article made me curious as to what precisely this was, so I looked up some information about it, and started the stub.  It definitely needs expansion by someone with a medical background.
* [[Sublease]] - Saw [[Sub-tenant]] on the [[Wikipedia:Articles requested for more than a year]] page, thought it should redirect to sublease, realized there wasn't a sublease page, and made one.  Little more than a dictionary definition right now.  Could use expansion.
* [[Education in Brazil]] - Saw it on the [[Wikipedia:Articles requested for more than a year]] page.  Thought it was silly that it didn't exist.  Did what I could.  Could still use expansion.

==My Images==
These are all self-made.  All of these are on Commons.  I have also uploaded one or two images to Wikipedia under fair-use claims.
