| I think using the ] in discussing here, will not be so popular among the other Wikipedians. /Habj 02:45, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Outlining the scope of the notice board == | |||
| Some section of the notice board have, since the notice board was started in June 2005, proved more successful than others. This likely is related to users willingness to contribute to them. As the notice board should be serve a purpose, it is probably better to focus on the sections that works and cut off the rest. | |||
| The notice board will serve its purpose best if it encourages constant contributions. So all assitance-request will be moved to a sub-page, where discussion on the articles will take place as well a section one can enter his name when finished working on it. // ]-] 14:11, 19 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ===Conclusion on various section:=== | |||
| * The request for improvement / expansion sections often require knowledgeable people to spend quite a lot of time. Nobody has also been been interested in maintaining the sections, checking if they have indeed been expanded or improved on. | |||
| * Other sections that have not been maintained includes requested translation and requested images. | |||
| * The to-do list is confusing since there are also sections with the same content. It has proven difficult to maintain both of them, adding/removing article as necessary. | |||

| == Accuracy of translations from sv Wiki == | |||
| If a member of this notice board would like to invite other members to check his translation of a Swedish article, where is the proper place to do so? | |||
| I just finished an article on the ] which includes not entirely universally official English translations of Swedish government bureaus. --] 14:53, 26 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| :Hi Adamrush. I guess here is as good a place as anywhere else to ask other editors to cast their eyes over translations! I've had a quick copy edit of your translation. I'm guessing that you're referring particularly to the translation of Skatteverket? Funnily enough, a translation I've been working on today referred to Skatteverket, which I translated as the Swedish Tax Agency just as you did. http://www.skatteverket.se/ don't seem to be particularly consistent - I found both Swedish Tax Agency and Swedish National Tax Board in the English section of their site and preferred the former. ] 17:19, 26 October 2005 (UTC) | |||

| == Swedish middle names == | |||
| Most articles on Swedish people include their middle names in bold. To me this seems as slightly misleading, since middle names in Sweden are largely ignored and very seldom, if ever, used to address someone. I dabbled with moving putting them after the name in italics, but someone pointed out that this could look pretty odd to non-Swedes. Any suggestions on what format would be most appropriate? | |||
| ] <sup>]</sup> 19:20, 16 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| : Why not just put them in the middle not using bold or italics? // ] | |||
| ::Or it might look more natural to lay the name out as follows: | |||
| ::'''Göran Persson''' (born Hans Göran Persson, ], ])... | |||
| ::I don't think that people who don't know much or anything about Swedish names would understand the current layout at ]. I mean, even I find it odd looking, and I reckon my knowledge of things Swedish is above average for a non-Swede. ] 09:19, 17 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :::I am not really clear why Swedish middle names should be treated in any way differently from other full names. The name the person is known under is shown as article title, is it not? Adding 'born' or italics and such just makes for hard reading. Having Göran Persson as article name, and starting the article with '''Hans Göran Persson''' in IMO the simplest and clearest solution.--] 10:08, 17 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :It's fine as it is in most cases (i.e. "'''Hans Göran Persson'''" should all be bold). The name a person is known by should be clear from the title of the article, unless the person is actually better known by the full name (as ], ] et al.), and the name, excluding "middle names" can also be used later in the article text to make it clear. In any case, "middle name" is not really a good term for what may come first or anywhere else in a series of names. (Additionally, ''mellannamn'' actually means something more specific in the most recent version of the , but that is a recent innovation and seldom relevant for our purposes.) ] 10:26, 17 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::I just think it's slightly misleading to bold completely unused first names. No one ever refers to Göran Persson by anything other than "Göran Persson". Not in Sweden nor abroad. If you look him up in NE, you won't even find "Hans" in italics or non-bold like they do with ]'s or ]'s additional names. | |||
| ::] <sup>]</sup> 13:13, 17 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::: In this case, I can't see that "Hans" is essential for the article... The current way it is written is perhaps a good alternative. /]-] 08:26, 22 February 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ::::Presumably it is part of his full name (I haven't actually checked). The way Peter has done it seems more confusing to me. The "'''Name''' (born ''Fuller Name'')" alternative is also confusing, as it gives the misleading impression somebody intentionally changed his/her name, rather than just using it more or less the same way the whole life. | |||
| ::::We could italicize the ''tilltalsnamn'', as is done in some publications, but I really see no reason for it as long as the article title makes it clear how the person is known. ''Svenskt biografiskt lexikon'' uses bold for the entire name at the beginning of an entry, but only the tilltalsnamn in headers, captions and inside the article. There are some complications with Swedish names in other cases (such as medieval people with patronymics), but in this particularcase, I see no reason to depart from general Misplaced Pages style. ] notes his full name at the beginning of the article as '''Anthony Charles Lynton Blair'''. How is that different from ]? ] 08:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC) | |||

| == Need a check on some Swedish literature == | |||
| In the controversy about the ] (see also: ]) I would need more information about the Swedish sources currently used in that article. There is, for example, one: Schön, Ebbe. (2004). ''Asa-Tors hammare, Gudar och jättar i tro och tradition''. Fält & Hässler, Värnamo. ISBN 91-89660-41-2 {{sv icon}} I was wondering, whether a monograph about Thor's hammer is really the best source for the Christianization of Scandinavia, so I searched a little, and according to google books, the publisher is not Fält & Hässler but Hjalmarson & Högberg. I checked out the homepage http://www.hohforlag.se/ and it doesn't really look encouraging. They are advertising a book about ] there. However, that is only my first impression, and I might be wrong. I would appreciate it, if a Swedish-speaking editor could look at these sources. | |||
| I know that is is difficult to find English-language sources if you aren't living in an English-speaking country. I used German introductory textbooks, too, but I also went through the effort of finding English literature, in this case: Sanmark, Alexandra (*1970-* ): ''Power and conversion : a comparative study of Christianization in Scandinavia''; Uppsala : Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Uppsala University, 2004, 322 p., Occasional papers in archaeology ; 34 , the English Ph.D. thesis of a Swedisch historian. There are some inconsistencies between this textbook and the article ] as it currently stands, so I would need to asses the reliability of the sources used there. ] (]) 12:45, 28 February 2009 (UTC) | |||
| :After taking a quick look at the webpage of Hjalmarson & Högberg (which already sounded somewhat familiar as a publisher) I wouldn't at all characterise it as a "weird publisher". Possibly they have an overrepresentation of "debate books" rather than just noncontroversial subjects. I noticed both a book on Swedish foreign and defence policy by a conservative voice (Jan Larsson) and a collection on writings on Israel and Palestine commissioned by the social democrats' study organisation & their Christian wing, so I see no obvious signs that they are biased in their publishing. As to the author ], he is a quite prolific author in the folkloristics area, and his entire Swedish-language publication should be registrered . From their titles, I get the impression that many of his publications are made for a general rather than an academic audience, and includes some youth novels. ] (]) 21:05, 28 February 2009 (UTC) | |||

| ::The main problem, why I turned to this noticeboard, is not to find additional English sources for the topic. The problem is assessing the reliability of the Swedish sources currently used in the article. The work I've mentioned above is used as a reference for the sentence: "Thirteenth century runic inscriptions from the bustling merchant town of Bergen in Norway show little Christian influence, and one of them appeals to a Valkyrie." Although this is rather dubious alone ("A cathedral, three stone monasteries and seven or eight stone churches were built in Bergen before 1200." ), the next sentence is contradicted by my university-level textbook. The article currently says: "At this time , enough knowledge of Norse mythology remained to be preserved in sources such as the Eddas in Iceland." My textbook says: "The extant verses were written down in Christian times, mostly during the thirteenth century." "It is thus possible that the strong personalities of the eddaic gods and other beings were mostly developed by Christian writers, such as Snorri Sturluson."(Sanmark 2004: 23, 179) | |||

But I don't know whether I can expect that from the Swedish speaking editor who (instead of locking up some academic references on his own) accuses me of violating wp:NPOV and wp:synth. () Technically it is possible that my source, although it is a Ph.D. thesis from London College, does not represent the mainstream academic view. But then we would need to know what other academic sources have to say, and English translations from the Swedish sources currently used in the article.
