Hello, I'm DubaiTerminator and have been a member of Wikipedia since early 2008. I have made many edits on the site, particularly to topics relating to Dubai. I have made significant edits in the featured article List of tallest buildings in Dubai. The article still calls for a considerable amount of improvement and I would appreciate it if more people could find time to update the article. Most of the edits I make relate to cities such as Dubai. I may also edit articles relating to space or physics. However, most of my edits come from simple grammatical improvements to random articles that I read over.

Machado de Assis
Machado de Assis (1839–1908) was a Brazilian novelist, poet, playwright and short-story writer, widely regarded as the greatest writer of Brazilian literature. In 1897, he founded and became the first president of the Brazilian Academy of Letters. He was multilingual, having taught himself French, English, German and Greek later in life. Machado's work shaped the realist movement in Brazil and the birth of the Brazilian republic made Machado become more critical and an observer of the Brazilian society of his time. Generally considered to be Machado's greatest works are Dom Casmurro (1899), Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas (Posthumous Memoirs of Brás Cubas, also translated as Epitaph of a Small Winner) and Quincas Borba (also known in English as Philosopher or Dog?). In 1893, he published "A Missa do Galo" ("Midnight Mass"), often considered to be the greatest short story in Brazilian literature. This photograph of Machado was taken by the Brazilian photographer Marc Ferrez in 1890.Photograph credit: Marc Ferrez; restored by Adam Cuerden
