[[Image:Elonka Dunin, 2006.jpg|150px|left]]
Hello! I'm '''[[Elonka Dunin]]'''. I am a writer, game developer, project manager, cryptologist, webmistress, public speaker, world-traveler, and appreciator of all kinds of different subcultures.  :)  

I've had a Wikipedia account since September 16, 2005, made my 1000th edit on January 19, 2006, and was [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Elonka 3|approved as an administrator]] in December 2007.
As of 2021 I have created or put major work into over 500<!-- 537, 11/2014 --> Wikipedia articles, and have made [https://xtools.wmflabs.org/ec/en.wikipedia/Elonka over 70,000 edits], which I guess puts me somewhere in the top 1200 of [[WP:WBE|active Wikipedians]]. 

Much of my time is spent either writing/improving articles, or working on some of the above WikiProjects. Before becoming an admin, I especially enjoyed helping out with [[Wikipedia:Categorization|categorization]], trying to ensure that every single article either has a category, or is at least flagged as needing one. Since I became an administrator, I have been helping out in other areas, such as reviewing the [[WP:DR|Wikipedia dispute resolution process]], and helping out at [[WP:AE|Arbitration Enforcement]]. I was also one of the people chosen by [[WP:ARBCOM|the Arbitration Committee]] for the 2008 [[WP:WORKGROUP|Working group on ethnic and cultural edit wars]], and have experimented with some different techniques on addressing this chronic problem. I wrote some stuff for the "New Admin school", like [[Wikipedia:Administrators%27_guide/Dealing_with_disputes|the Administrators Guide on dealing with disputes]].

Of the articles that I've worked on, the ones that I am most proud of include: {{icon|FA}}&nbsp;[[Knights Templar]], {{icon|FA}}&nbsp;[[Franco-Mongol alliance]], {{icon|FA}}&nbsp;[[Pauline Fowler]], {{icon|GA}}&nbsp;[[Fustat]], {{icon|GA}}&nbsp;''[[The White Bird]]'', {{icon|GA}}&nbsp;[[David Lucas (composer)]], {{icon|GA}}&nbsp;[[Linda November]], {{icon|GA}} [[Black Stone]], [[Dirty Dancing]], [[Mongol Empire]], and [[Sempad the Constable]].

For my day job, I'm a [http://elonka.com/bio.html professional game developer], [[Agile software development|Agile Coach]], and a published author. My book ''[http://www.elonka.com/mammoth The Mammoth Book of Secret Codes and Cryptograms]'' was published internationally in 2006, I have written a couple articles about the CIA's encrypted ''[[Kryptos]]'' sculpture, and co-wrote [http://codebreaking-guide.com ''Codebreaking: A Practical Guide''] in 2020 with crypto-blogger [[:de:Klaus Schmeh|Klaus Schmeh]]. As a hobby, I maintain some popular websites on the subject of cryptography, especially ''[http://www.elonka.com/kryptos/ Kryptos]'' and other [http://www.elonka.com/UnsolvedCodes.html famous unsolved codes], and I show up on [http://www.elonka.com/elonkanews.html TV or in the news every so often]. I'm also a public speaker, usually giving talks on the subjects of games, Wikipedia, [[geocaching]], or cryptography.

Wikipedia is one of my favorite hobbies, and I love writing articles, helping behind-the-scenes, and giving lectures about how members of the public can better be positively engaged with their own Wikipedia experiences. :) I think Wikipedia is an amazing concept that is going to continue to grow quite rapidly. I often scan through the [[Special:Newpages|new articles]] that are flowing in at a rate of over a thousand per day, and I am humbled by the sheer quantity of information that's accumulating in this massive project. I am very proud to be a part of it.
