Tom Taylor (1817–1880) was an English dramatist, public servant and writer. After a brief academic career in English literature and language at University College London in the 1840s, Taylor practised law and became a civil servant. At the same time he became a journalist, most prominently as a contributor to and eventually the editor of the magazine Punch. He also began a theatre career and is now best known as a playwright. With up to one hundred plays staged during his career, both original work and adaptations of French plays, Taylor's output covers a range of genres from farce to melodrama. Most fell into neglect after Taylor's death, but Our American Cousin (1858), which achieved great success in the 19th century, remains famous as the piece that was being performed in the presence of Abraham Lincoln when he was assassinated in 1865.

Whitfield is part of Men of Mark: A Gallery of Contemporary Portraits, a collection published in 1881.Photograph credit: Lock & Whitfield; restored by Adam Cuerden

Presentation
[edit]Hi, my name is João and I'm from Portugal. I joined Wikipedia on 17 August 2004 and my first edit was on the article Portugal. I'm happy that my first edit was on a country that I am very proud to live, but I only realised that my first one was on Portugal almost two years after. Also of note, is that the second article I've edited was on a Portuguese clown: Batatinha! My major fields are History of Portugal and Portuguese politics, and to a minor degree, Portuguese football. I have an extensive work in three articles: John III of Portugal, History of Portugal (1578-1777) and History of Portugal (1777-1834). I'm also the founder of The Portugal Portal and a minor contributer, since I only sporadically update the news. You can also see my work in the ongoing process of creation/improving of the articles of Portuguese royal family members, and also in the templates on the four Portuguese dynasties: Template:House of Burgundy, Template:House of Aviz, Template:House of Habsburg and Template:House of Braganza. Regarding lists, I've been quite active in the promotion of List of Presidents of Portugal and List of Portuguese monarchs to featured status, and I'm currently working on List of Prime Ministers of Portugal. I was also a (incredibly) minor editor in the also featured List of municipalities of Portugal. In the end, I'd like to say I consider myself a little IPA-pronunciations-maniac, since every article that seems Portuguese to me immediately receives an IPA pronunciation.
Here's a list of my edits:
- Nr. 1 Portugal
- Nr. 10 Batatinha
- Nr. 50 Rádio e Televisão de Portugal
- Nr. 100 SuperLiga
- Nr. 500 Template:Football in Portugal table cells
- Nr. 1000 Afonso I of Portugal
- Nr. 2000 Rio Maior
- Nr. 3000 Loures
- Nr. 4000 Duke of Braganza
- Nr. 5000 Associação de Futebol de Beja
- Nr. 6000 Celorico de Basto
- Nr. 7000 Mary Frances Benedicta, Princess of Brazil
- Nr. 8000 Template:House of Aviz
- Currently: 8518 (482 to reach 9000)
Currently working on...
