Hi, I’m Minh Nguyễn of Loveland, Ohio, United States, Earth, Sol System, Milky Way, Local Group, Canes Venatici cloud, Virgo Supercluster, Local Filament, Universe. You get the idea. I maintain a personal weblog (http://mxn.f2o.org/) (under construction, but mostly complete). You can find out more about me (http://mxn.f2o.org/about/index.html) at my blog, and at my userpage at the Vietnamese Wikipedia, where I am a sysop. (I’m also a sysop for the Vietnamese Wikimedia projects and for Wikisource.)
This (http://www.adobe.com/products/atmosphere/) is so sad. In a month, Adobe Atmosphere (once known as 3D Anarchy) will be no more.

About me
My parents immigrated to the United States in the 1970s, due to the Vietnam War.
I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana (near the Vietnamese-American community of Versailles). Now I live in Loveland, Ohio. I recently graduated from St. Xavier High School, which belongs to the Chicago Province of the Society of Jesus. Later this year, I will attend Stanford University in California, where I will probably study computer science.
Software
I browse and edit Wikipedia using Mozilla Firefox, and I invite you to do the same, since its simple tabbed browsing really makes it easy. To type out text in Vietnamese, I use a home-brewed text editor / IME that I created in XUL.

Language
I can speak English fluently, and I am learning Vietnamese from my parents, and from my participation at the Vietnamese Wikipedia. In addition, I completed four years of courses in Spanish, culminating in an AP test in May. I intend to continue studying Spanish in college.
Since the eighth grade, I’ve taken in interest in phonetics, particularly in the International Phonetic Alphabet. I use my proficient knowledge in the alphabet at Wiktionary.
Contributions
My first contribution to Wikipedia was a minor, anonymous edit at United States presidential line of succession, which has since been disproven.
Most of my contributions occur at the Vietnamese Wikipedia, where I’m an administrator and bureaucrat. Most of my contributions here come in the form of typo corrections and interwiki links between the English and Vietnamese Wikipedias. But I’ve also contributed some articles, too:
Articles
Here are some articles that I’ve had a major hand in writing:
- Adobe Atmosphere
- Autonomous University of Nuevo León (translated)
- Big Pig Gig
- Cinergy
- Côn Đảo
Homeland Security Act- Little Miami River
- Loveland, Ohio
- Ohio (especially the History section)
- Sentence diagram (via Reed-Kellogg sentence diagram)
- St. Xavier High School
- Vietnamese language (indirectly, via users of the Vietnamese and French Wikipedias)
- Vietnamese Quoted-Readable
- WCPO-TV 9, WBQC-CA 38, WSTR-TV 64
Bolded items are articles that I wrote out long passages of text for.

After much thought and consideration on the topic – about three seconds' worth – I've decided to be generous with my pittance of contributions here, especially to free the Rambot articles:
Template:MultiLicenseMinorPD Template:MultiLicenseWithCC-BySA-Any With respect to the permission granted below, I specifically add Anthony DiPierro in addition to the Wikimedia Foundation for any contributions automatically generated and added by the rambot from the public domain census bureau statistics. The above exclusions still apply. Template:WikimediaTextLicensing
I license much of my original work under the Attribution ShareAlike license anyhow.
Tasks
- Expand St. Xavier High School
- Write up Loveland, Ohio’s history [1] (http://www.lovelandchamber.org/community_history.html)
