[edit] Vidkun Quisling prime minister?
Although it may be true that Vidkun Quisling was never Prime Minister, might it be an idea to have a statement in this list to that effect, rather thn notlinking to him at all? Perhaps something like "Vidkun Quisling is sometimes thought to have been Prime Minister, but in fact..." - IMSoP 20:57, 18 Feb 2004 (UTC)
- Ah yes, that looks to be both useful and accurate now. - IMSoP 01:24, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)

- I agree; to clarify further I put in a short blurb on the WWII exile. --Wernher 02:09, 19 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Quisling was prime minister, and quit inserting your POV here. This is simply a neutral list of people holding this de facto position, from any regime and regardless of the point of view of their political opponents. The same applies to lists of Iraqi presidents, which should include Saddam Hussein until 2003 and then the US-occupation presidents. p .moe
- Wrong. This is a list of people who where appointed Prime Ministers by the King according to the constitution. (_Not_ whoever was the Big Cahuna at the time )He never was in 1940. (In his radio speech, he appealed to the King to name him PM, -which he didn't do.) -Nygaardsvold was still in the country, and the majority of it was still unoccupied. Quisling was mostly ignored, with the Germans dealing with the Supreme Court instead. -It takes more to take power in a country, than going on the radio and say that you just did. Since you like to compare with iraq: Would you consider Saddam toppled one day into the invasion?
- As for 1943-1945: He was named Minister President (!= Prime Minister), and he didn't get the same powers as a PM. (hardly any powers at all, it was mostly a gesture from Hitler.) Also, it wasn't given by the King, but by the Reichskommissar, -thus it was a completly different form of government. Putting him in this list is just as wrong as putting Cromwell in the list of British monarchs. Anyway: Nygaardsvold's government was the internationally recognized one. (Excpet for the axis) -And there where also unnoccupied Norwegian territorry during that time. --Bjorn H Bergtun 05:53, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
- Also: If Quisling is put in the list, Nygaardsvold must be put after him, from 7-8th May (Quilsing's arrest.) untill 20th June (Gerhardsen appointed PM.). --Bjorn H Bergtun 05:53, 19 May 2004 (UTC)

- PMoe, If you still have problems accepting this, please have a look at Prime Minister in order to understand the concept. --Arnejohs 06:07, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Cleanup
This article needs some serious cleanup. Under the Viceroys section, for instance, it lists several people who never held the title of Viceroy. I will work on it tomorrow (as the time is 02.30 AM right now), but I might need some input (preferably) from other Norwegians. Punkmorten 00:28, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
- I have now made major changes to the article. The content should be correct now. If someone feels that a layout change is needed, then put it up for discussion. This page is by no means "fully edited". Infoboxes for the different office-holders listed here is the next thing that needs a bit of updating.
- On the Norwegian Wikipedia, I found a template showing a nice timeline for post-1945 Norwegian Prime Ministers. Could someone with knowledge of Wikipedia templates put that in this article? Preferably under the section Prime ministers of Norway (1905-present).

- Another thing I did was to remove wikilinks that occured twice in the same paragraph. For example, Kjell Magne Bondevik's name occurs twice, but only the first occurence is a wikilink. Feel free to comment upon this change. Punkmorten 13:30, 21 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Including party names in timeline
Any idees on how the coalition partners of the PM's party could be included? --Moravice
- I don't think they should. This is a list of Norwegian Prime Ministers, not coalition partners. Punkmorten 15:58, 18 October 2005 (UTC)

- If there was a timeline in the List of Norwegian governments, it could be included there. Currently there is no such timeline, but perhaps it will come later. --Eddi (Talk) 21:50, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
