Hi, my name is Jörg and I'm from the "Ruhrgebiet", the Ruhr-area.

I'm looking forward to using some of my free time to improve articles of institutions and people in the fields of academics, politics and other interesting things I might find along the way.

Any tips, tricks and comments to improve my edits are more than welcome :)
