Location maps available for infoboxes of European countries[edit]
As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed soon at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish two things:
- whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions),
- which new version (with of without indicating the entire European Union by a separate shade) should be applied for which countries.
There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 00:28, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Please change "The unified kingdom of Norway was established in 872 as a merger of petty kingdoms and has existed continuously for 1150–151 years" to "The unified kingdom of Norway was established in 872 as a merger of petty kingdoms and has existed continuously for over 1150 years".

- I have changed age to 1151–1152 which currently displays as "1150-1151 years". This is better than a static "over 1150 years" because it is dynamic: next year it will say "1151-1152 years"

Economy section[edit]
Which areas of Norway's economy has no state regulations? The article says a prosperous capitalist welfare state, it features a combination of free market activity and large state ownership in certain key sectors
There is well sourced data about the welfare state but not about areas of free market (supposing there is any of relevance)
Also, the line prosperous capitalist welfare state, should the word capitalist be there? 186.22.17.160 (talk) 11:23, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
