Recategorisation
Should this article also be in the category for The Osmoor, as well as the one for Reedsee? — Uwe_of_Brennholt (talk) 19:58, 7 May 2021 (VMT)
Fine by me. — Teirnvaker_M (talk) 09:56, 11 May 2021 (VMT)
Dates
Could we settle a date format for this article? At present it gives the day in some places and the year alone in others. — Martin_H. (talk) 08:15, 12 January 2022 (VMT)
The date is the date. There is nothing to annotate. — Uwe_of_Brennholt (talk) 19:44, 15 January 2022 (VMT)
Then leave it. I have asked for the infobox field to be protected, which I understand is not a thing that can be done to a single field. — Kasper_B. (talk) 14:13, 18 January 2022 (VMT)
Thanks. Closing. — Teirnvaker_M (talk) 09:42, 21 January 2022 (VMT)
Rewrite of the opening paragraph
The lead gives the place and the year and nothing else. The Manual of Style asks the lead to summarise the article. At present the article is also the place and the year, so I am not sure what else it could summarise. — CSchesttos89 (talk) 13:32, 25 July 2024 (VMT)
@CSchesttos89 I think it is fine as it is. The Encyclopedia is not a newspaper. — Martin_H. (talk) 08:01, 29 July 2024 (VMT)
Reverted a change that described the subject as “of national importance”. The source for that was the editor's own opinion. — Uwe_of_Brennholt (talk) 19:30, 2 August 2024 (VMT)
Infobox
The image in the infobox is the Archive's portrait of Maria Hallin, the teacher. Does anyone have a better photograph that can be used? It would need to be cleared with the Archive. — IlseRademann (talk) 18:49, 1 April 2025 (VMT)
Leave it. An image of record is better than a better image. — CSchesttos89 (talk) 13:18, 2 April 2025 (VMT)
