Wrong Placename

First of all I hope you don't mind that I write in English, but I can only read text in Danish.

I've noticed that there are some mistakes in this article. Obviously the writer wasn't aware of the situation in Belgium. There are officially two universities which bear the name "Catholic University Leuven/Louvain)". This is because in 1968 the original Catholic University, situated in the Dutch-speaking city of Leuven in Flemish Brabant, was split into two new entities. A Dutch-speaking university (Katholieke Universiteit Leuven KUL) which remained in Leuven and a French-speaking university (Université catholique de Louvain UCL) which was relocated to the town of Ottignies in Walloon Brabant and the town subsequently has been renamed Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve. This university is situated in Wallonia, the French-speaking part of Belgium. While in this wikipedia an article about the Dutch-speaking university (en:Katholieke Universiteit Leuven) is missing, the French-speaking university (Université de Louvain) is wrongly located in Leuven and Brussels. Actually, the major part of the university is situated in the town of Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve in Walloon Brabant and only the medical faculty of the university is located in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert/Sint-Lambrechts-Woluwe, a town in the Brussels Capital Region. Also there is a dispute about the founding date of the university. As you can see in the entry of French wikipedia the foundation year is 1834 and the foundation took place in Mechelen (Malines), while 1968 is the splitting year (scission).
In the current state this article is really misleading and should be improved. As I explained in the beginning I have not enough linguistic proficiency in Danish to do this. However I hope someone can improve this article with the information given here. Best regards.--Eusc (diskussion) 6. apr 2013, 20:18 (CEST)
