The article presents legends as facts and implies that the Ynglings actually existed. I think we should add some sort of discussion about the quality of the sources.-- Kallerdis 18:09, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
78.151.173.242 ( talk) 19:52, 11 January 2009 (UTC)Gamla Uppsala in Lithuanian language 'Zhemela Apshala' meaning the land (Zhemela or Gemela) which is frozen (Pashala or Apshala)...so those mentioned pagans were Balts. Or Uppsala can mean and a half island (Pasale, Apysale, since the island in Lithuanian language is 'Sala'). 78.151.173.242 ( talk) 19:52, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Come on. This must be a joke. No mentoning of the research by Neil Price and Magnus Alkarp? Who wrote this?

In 2000, the Swedish AsatruSociety [1] restarted the tradition of holding blóts at Gamla Uppsala. This was the first public blót at the place for more than 900 years. About 90-100 people attended the event. The event made frontpage news in the local newspaper Uppsala Nya Tidning as well as a full page in Expressen.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Ghirlandajo ( talk • contribs)
"They were built as symbols of the divine origins and powers of the Yngling kings. Hundreds of people worked for thousands of days in order to construct such mounds. Only a powerful dynasty, such as the Ynglings, could muster such a workforce." Diff - WeniWidiWiki 16:30, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
I am placing this on hold for several reasons:
I am failing this article as a GA because only 1 edit was ever made to this since I placed it on hold, and that edit really wasn't a major edit. Please improve this article and renominate it later. Thank you for your contributions. Diez2 16:01, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
==A minor correction== Polyorketes Changed "the largest village" to "one of the largest". The village of Forkarby was larger than Gamla Uppsala. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Polyorketes ( talk • contribs) 03:37, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
"The sacrifices at the Temple at Uppsala are described through an eye-witness account by Adam of Bremen:" – when was Adam in Uppsala? Never. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.57.199.55 ( talk) 15:25, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Why was everything Frankish? I mentioned this to some experts and they said I was an idiot. Then why is it here? Is it vandalism? Alpharts Tod ( talk) 20:00, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
