[edit] Keep
Keep. It should indeed be kept. I keep reading that Fjordman is not published, nor quoted, outside of blogging circles. This is actually incorrect, he is quoted at least by Washington Post (of all places), http://www.washingtontimes.com/op-ed/20051208-092512-5305r.htm.
He is also quoted, or referred to by no less then Daniel Pipes, and Paul Belien who can hardly be called unknown entities..
In fact, if he would ever step out of his anoniminity, he would most likely be seen on quite a few panels around the world. F eriksen 11:52, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
I just wanted to make a small comment regarding the "normal" name of fjordman: I've lived 18 years in sweden, 14 in norway, and spent long periods of time in denmark (4-6 months quite frequently). I've never come across the name... I made a quick lookup in SSB's statistical database online for the name, and it returned "3,2,1 or 0 that has the name Fjordman as their lastname". Just wanted to mention that... F eriksen 11:59, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
