Hi
Yakikaki, review follows: article created 8 APril; article exceeds minimum length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to what look to be reliable sources (all are in Swedish); happy to assume no overly close paraphrasing fro the foreign-language sources; hooks are interesting and mentioned in the article, AGF they are backed up by the Swedish-language sources; image is suitable, and appropriately licensed; a QPQ has been carried out. No problems here -

Hi, I came by to promote this. Could you add an inline cite after the sentence containing "Viking house"? Thanks,

Hi, sorry about it, I should have added that right from the start. Now something odd has happened. I went into the website (of the county government) where I very clearly remember reading this, just to double check, and was surprised to see that much of the information which was there a month ago isn't there anymore, including the specific reference to a "Viking house". It's really embarrassing but I'm sure it was there a month ago. I've no idea why it's been changed, I would expect this kind of info to be rather static. In any case, I guess it won't fly. I'll suppose I have to change the article and strike out ALT1.

Yoninah, I've now removed the part about "Viking house" from the article. Please disregard ALT1. Sigh. I'm sorry about it and I find it really inexplicable.

Yoninah, sorry to bother you about this again. I found another source with the same text so I've restored the line and removed the strike-out of ALT1.
