Talk:Smorgasbord

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Julbord

This section is written in an editorial or POV bombastic style, and needs to be either rewritten simply in describing the foods, or removed entirely. Encyclopedias speak in the third person, and should almost never use the second person or talk directly to the reader, as it does now. --Kuzaar-T-C- 16:27, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

  • I've started the effort, but there is a long way to go. I think with another (admittedly major) edit, this article will have improved beyond 'start-over' status.Reimelt 20:26, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Note that when discussing "Jansons Frestelse", "ansjovis" and "anchovies" is not the same: The swedish "Ansjovis" is "sprats pickled the anchovy way" (its made from "skarpsill"), while the english "anchovies" is known in swedish as "sardeller". This is when talking about food dishes. When talking about the species of fish, "ansjovis" and "anchovies" is the same.

We made some changes to keep the spirit of of the original article but with more simplified language. (referring to suggestions made here)

That picture isn´t much of a smörgåsbord. This is more like it:http://www.missmaud.com.au/write/SmorgLunchNewLge.jpg I don´t know how to edit pictures though.
