Hi,
I saw on the WP:LGBT member list that you speak Swedish. Very cool. If you're interested, you should definitely list your name on WikiProject LGBT studies/Translation. You would be the project's first Swedish-speaker.
Would it be possible for you to make sure the English and Swedish articles on the film Fucking Åmål include the same information? Currently the Swedish has some lists the English doesn't. Also, the English articles on Alexandra Dahlström and Rebecka Liljeberg are longer than the Swedish ones, which is sadly ironic, considering the actresses are Swedish.
Thanks if you can help!

Hiya. I've been seeing how active the other language LGBT WikiProjects, and I've been noticing that a lot of the users I have spoken to in these semi-active projects complain of an uphill struggle against homophobic editors, who make it very difficult to get anywhere. I was wondering what the situation is like on the Swedish Wikipedia. Is there any censorship, or any form of WikiProject (or just some people who work together)?

Hej. Det är ofta som hon inte hittar ord på svenska och istället använder sig av engelska uttryck. Hon har också ibland svårt att förstå vad folk säger. Det skulle i och för sig kunna tyda på att hon hör dåligt så det är möjligt att det kan formuleras om lite. Denna information kommer från när jag hört henne dels på radio och dels på hennes besök i Lund (då bilden togs). Entheta 13:25, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Aloha. Could you find me a reliable reference for Efva Attling's civil union with Eva Dahlgren? I can't find anything in English. Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 23:24, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
You tagged Ben devore a G3, vandalism, but a more appropriate tag would be WP:CSD#G10, which is for attack pages. Based on the content, a G10 tag would've been better. Also, you should notify the creator of the page. A template for doing this is found in the speedy deletion template, but this can also be down automatically using Huggle or Twinkle. --Patar knight - chat/contributions 19:46, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for making that fictional character clear. I shot from the hip and deleted the thing. Cheers, Dlohcierekim 22:48, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi there, I'm doing some recent changes patrolling and have come across the article Hermann Mucke (bioscientist). I'm not sure whether it satisfies WP:ACADEMIC or not and whether to PROD it or not (or even speedy delete it). All the references seem to be links to articles he's written or links to lists of those articles. Any suggestions gladly received. ɪntəsvɛnsk 15:17, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
And whilst we're at it... is this guy notable according to WP:N? None of the awards he has won seem to meet the criteria? I don't want to be a dick but the amount of self-referential crap that appears on Wikipedia is staggering and it would be nice to get rid of some of it. ɪntəsvɛnsk 15:47, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
((helpme)) I've been reading through the various policies that relate to this matter but I'm not sure about how to proceed. Maybe someone with more experience can help. I am currently writing an article about Mullingstorp (a psychotherapy institute in Sweden) and have several reliable sources. The problem I have is that although the newspapers have websites, these particular articles are a little bit too old to have been digitised (they come from 1999-2000 time). I have paper copies of the articles that I can scan in and upload as images to prove that I'm not just making stuff up but I don't want to break any copyright laws. Can someone advise me on what is the best thing to do? Is it ok to scan the articles and then provide a link or is this either bad form from a style point of view or a breach of copyright policy? Thanks for your input. ɪntəsvɛnsk 12:52, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading File:Mullingstorpgrounds.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.
If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.
If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as ((non-free fair use in|article name)) or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Polly (Parrot) 14:53, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
I am now proud owner of a TUSC account!
Hello there, thanks for doing such a nice translation of the Swedish article on Södergran - much of the Swedish original is my work and it runs smoothly and with a nuanced feeling here. I made some corrections and lifted out a piece of spam at the end which had been around in the original text for a while and drifted over to here - already corrected that bit at the Swedish WP. I'll be coming back to both versions of it but it looks very good. Would you care to take a look at the Swedish Karin Boye article too some day? That's another one where I made a lot of input to lift a rather bare piece.
I'm a translator myself and trilingual Swedish/English/French, so I'm happy to collaborate and perhaps expand some articles on English writers at the Swedish WP. Thanks again!!Strausszek (talk) 14:43, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi Intesvensk. In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved. This would be a tremendous help to Wikipedia and coverage of LGBT culture and history. Thanks for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions! --Another Believer (Talk) 15:58, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
