[edit] POV neutralization

I removed and/or tagged as "{ {fact}}"some of the worst POV terminology, such as positive buzzwords and claims of popularity (her party had popular support of 2-3% of population, a claim that she was "one of the most popular politicians in Norway" should have good references.

Also, "I think it stood in Dagbladet in somewhere in 1985" is not a source. Dagbladet is a tabloid newspaper, so it should be possible to check that

• It was an actual poll, and not Dagbladet asking people to call in and tell what they think, allowing 100 people to call in, and call it a statistic.
• It actually stood in the paper.

With that, I hope we can start thinking about removing the POV tag.

I believe you have been a bit too rigorous in your pruning of the article. I would like to see the bit about her colorful personality and the remark about "filling up the Storting" put back into i. We don't have to get all too sterile, and it is undisputed among people who lived in Norway when she was an active politician that she had that vivacious, "straight from the liver" quality about her. __meco 19:39, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

It would be good to have the thing about "filling up the Storting" in the article, yes. The problem is with the sources - wikipedia requires this statement to be refere in a credible source, for example somebody (credible) confirming that she said that in a newspaper. Otherwise, how can we be sure she actually said that? -- Heptor _talk 11:56, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

When it comes to verifiability such stringent procedure as you invoke is confined to matters with "blp" concerns. In the case of this claimed quote, adding an in-text {{cn}}/{{fact}} would suffice, without removing the quote itself (at least not until a considerable time period has lapsed without someone coming up with the required citation). Unless of course you have probable suspicion that the quote is false. __meco 19:44, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

OK, you are right. I putting the quote back in with { {cn}}. -- Heptor _talk 10:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
