The article on Vättern says that its deepest point is at least 136 m, but it's not on the "Deepest" list. Is there an explanation for this, or is it a mistake? / Alarm 18:11, 31 August 2005 (UTC)

My source for this article comes from a pdf file which seemed official. I saved it to my hard drive and have no uploaded it on http://www.stoisk.se/Documents/Fiskar.pdf . The pdf lists the "deepest" lakes without Vättern. A quick search on google gives this page: http://aktuellt.fiskeriverket.se/sottochsalt/file/Utgavor_pdf/nr%204_webb.pdf which on page three gives Vättern a deepest depth of 120 meters. It may also be mentioned that I have removed from the page Vättern the (to me) another flawed description, namely of Vättern containing more water than Vänern [1], which according to the first link I provided above is clearly debunct. // Fred-Chess 20:56, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
Ok, then it seems as if it is the Vättern article that needs to be changed. The pdf could possibly be referred to as a source in the article. / Alarm 21:52, 31 August 2005 (UTC)
It has been done. The pdf can't be uploaded to wikipedia as it isn't free, and I don't remember where I got it from anymore, but I've added the above link to the article. Fred-Chess 22:06, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
