The IPA pronunciation was wrong. I've tried to fix it, but I am not 100% sure about how to write the "gn" in "Magne."
Bondevik seems not to have been elected to the Storting at this election, at least I cannot find him at the government elections website. Did he retire, or was he defeated? Adam 14:15, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
So he retired at this election? Should not the article say this? Who was the government candidate for Prime Minister? Adam 14:54, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
Can one be PM of Norway without being a member of the Storting? Adam 00:41, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
It seems extremely arrogant. Was this one of the reasons the government was defeated? Adam 08:57, 15 September 2005 (UTC)
I have done some calculations at my website of the election results, which show that the combined right-wing parties polled more votes than the combined left-wing parties, yet the left won the elections with 88 seats to 81. This shouldn't happen in a pure PR system like Norway's. I can only surmise that there is a bias in the electoral system in favour of the smaller and more northern counties where the left is strongest. Is this the case? [ User:Adam Carr ]
Can anyone explain why? --Leifern 15:34, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
I suppose the tag was added because the article does not cite its sources, and the article has been the subject of controversy and/or vandalism. It would probably help if a reference list was added. --Eddi (Talk) 23:29, 10 December 2005 (UTC)
Why is his nationality given as "not-american"? he's Norwegian, you know...—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.69.180.251 (talk • contribs) .
In 2004 he was accused of being a member of the Fellowship Foundation, but continues to deny these claims. Furthermore the media has criticized him for his involvement in the establishment and operation of the Oslo Centre for Peace and Human Rights which was established from the donations of Norwegian companies that are believed to be loyal to Bondevik. The Progress Party (Fremskrittspartiet) expressed the opinion of that the Centre was not an ethically acceptable project and thus questioned the former Prime Minister's involvement.
Here's the source for Bondevik's ties to the totalitarian organization Fellowship Foundation aka The Family.

Bondevik's involvement is also confirmed by Jeff Sharlet, author of "The Family".

Could someone please reinsert that part into the article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.226.61.35 (talk) 16:40, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
Yesterday, I read in a Norwegian newspaper that Bondevik claims that he told the U.S. that Norway would "go to Afghanistan, but not follow the U.S. into other countries". Does anyone have any link in English about this, so that I can edit the article?--Ranti2 (talk) 09:19, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
