“Sir, I have studied these things — you have not.”

- Isaac Newton’s response to Edmond Halley when the latter would say anything disrespectful of astrology or religion.

Whoso pulleth out this sword
from this stone and anvil
is the true born king of all Britain.

Greetings, all, and welcome to my page!

Who I am

[edit]

I am a resident of Niterói - I'm not quite a native, but near enough as to make no difference. In fact, I was born in Ipanema, where I went to school. For a living, I'm a proofreader, journalist, translator and lecturer, and I help people with technology stuff.

I joined Wikipedia way back in 2004, when it was still a large part of the wilds of the internet. This is my original first account.

I don't really have a preferred topic to edit, I sail with the wind.

My Wiki-Idols

[edit]

My Wikipedia idols are:

1. Ser Amantio di Nicolao, one of the top 5 greatest Wikipedians of all times and an administrator since June of 2015.

2. Urhixidur, astronomer, Wikipedia enthusiast and expert, and the gentleman who kindly invited me to the Wikipedia:Fifteen Year Society.

Wikipedia stats

Take a look at Wikipedia:Size in volumes - it's a remarkable work for Mankind, indeed.
