Personal statement

I chose the name Lumos3 to underline my intention to be someone who brings some light into confused Wikipedia articles. The number 3 stands for the 3 worlds of reality according to my favourite philosopher Karl Popper, especially for world 3 which Wikipedia inhabits.

I found Wikipedia in September 2003 when helping my son with his homework on the French Revolution. Even then it was the best material available on the internet.

I have been regularly contributing ever since. Which means I have been editing Wikipedia for 20 years, 10 months and 19 days.

Please sign my Guestbook. Good editing!

I've made contributions in some areas on which I have a bit of knowledge of the local history and geography of places I've lived.
