- I think it needs a rewrite. Elassint Throw things at me 18:45, 15 November 2007 (EST)
- Well, let's at least start with what we had, eh? And I'm sure more will come along. human

You know, its interesting how this first started out as vandalism. Elassint Throw things at me 23:20, 16 November 2007 (EST)
- Yup, that's one of our approaches to wandals - take the crap they start and make an RW thing out of it. Some things move faster than others. Sweden jokes and facts will probably come slowly. Perhaps our resident Dane will find it eventually and snark it out. human

[edit] Not a good article
I mean, no word on IKEA. Editor at CP 02:55, 17 November 2007 (EST)
- Ooh ooh, I forgot teh IKEAz! I know virtually nuthin about them, though. Can you add a bit? human

- The IKEA part in the article is perfect, and makes the article complete.
- Oh wait, wasn't there a swedish cook in Muppet Show? (or is he covered by the funny language bit?)
- And while people may argue about the civilized Country as opposed to the Vikings, it's pretty clear that they still produce some fearsome Vikings and export them to NHL. Editor at CP 15:01, 17 November 2007 (EST)
[edit] ABBA
I'm not going to get into an edit war but ABBA were, at one point, Sweden's second biggest money earner and even if they weren't Dancing Queen is the bestest ever, so there. So ABBA are great, not overrated. Silver Sloth 09:50, 26 August 2008 (EDT)
[edit] Polishing a bit.
Not sure what to do about "Fan du". I would interpret it more as "Hey, man" or "Wow!" - "Fan ta dig" however, is a curse comparable to "Fuck you". I'll go ahead and remove the double plural on "kronors" anyway. 217.211.88.20 (talk) 10:43, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Unfair
Lutfisk (sic) is exclusively norwegian, it is either unknown or abhorred in Sweden and Denmark. — Unsigned, by: Millan / talk / contribs
- Lutfisk is still a traditional Christmas Day course in large parts of Sweden, and is still eaten by a minority of people on unspecial times as well. Almost everyone knows what it is. — Unsigned, by: 90.225.112.190 / talk / contribs 19:02, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Assange
Is it really exclusive to Sweden that it's illegal to force someone to have sex without a condom when they have only consented to sex with a condom? Withdrawal of consent would also be applicable, which is definitely not exclusive to Sweden.— Unsigned, by: Malarkey / talk / contribs
The whole section about Assange is crap: 1. Sex crime law doesn't mention condoms specifically. 2. The law doesn't specify the size of fines; this always up to the courts. 3. All sex crimes in Sweden have prison as a potential outcome. 4. Assange is suspected of having had sex with someone who was sleeping. If convicted, he would be sentenced to prison for rape for 2-10 years, not fined SEK 5000. Db7213 (talk) 23:29, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
[edit] War
Since 2010, Swedish forces in Afghanistan engage the enemy without first being fired upon, which international law only allows during war, hence it is wrong to say that "Sweden has had continuous peace since 1814". Db7213 (talk) 23:29, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
[edit] Muslim Majority
| Muslims everywhere |
|---|

Lars Hedegaard, a respected journalist, predicted Sweden will be majority Muslim by 2049. All the numbers support this.For example, Swedish fertility is 1.9 and falling, where as Muslim fertility is 2.5. Plus, it is estimated 127000 immigrants will enter Sweden each year, most from Syria. — Unsigned, by: 174.61.214.56 / talk / contribs
[edit] Mention blondesWhy no mention of Sweden's high concentration of blondes? It's something people think of when they think of Sweden. (User:Steelman)
Why is my question under Muslim majority? This has nothing to do with what I asked. Now, my question is answered. There is no mention of blondes because there won't be any left in the future./sarcasm Steelman |
