About me
editMade in Germany in 1979 I was born in a beautiful 12 hundred year old city before Internet happened to exist. I have always been interested in knowledge, so I felt in love with Wikipedia at first sight. My main interests are politics, history, sports, marketing, music, technics and poker.
Moving to Frankfurt I became an online marketeer back in 2004, mainly manipulating Google SERPs and doing other fancy online stuff.
Wikipedia background
editBeing a German Wikipedia user since 19 years, 0 days I was spending 6,940 more or less sleepless nights reading wiki articles and decided to improve grammar, spelling and content.
