[edit]See this is what I don't get: how is this a Start-class article, that "lacks adequate reliable sources"? Particularly seeing how this WikiProject has a C-class. Never mind that a C-class article has a "lot of irrelevant material", it has "significant issues" and requires "substantial cleanup." I'm not sure how any of those criteria applies to this article, but the fact is that the person who gave this article its rating didn't give it a "C" - which would have been questionable enough - but decided to go for a "Start"... This is the kind of mentality I just don't get, I guess my mind has "significant issues". Lampman (talk) 03:40, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
- I re-rated the article as "B Class". This is a nice article and it could reach GA class with some work. Information I would like to see added to reach GA class would include:
- Explanation of why the permit and the sceintists morals limited testing to only skeletons, as opposed to bodies that had soft tissue remains.
- Details about the testing proceedures used on the skeletons
- Information about why the Swedish house was built there and why it was stocked. Was it used during the summer by hunters? Was it build specifically as an emergency shelter?
- Why is it assumed that Albertsen was the penultimate man to die? Did his journall speak of someone else being alive when the journal ended?
- Did the journal describe the symptoms of the men, and if so, what were they?
- Do researchers know whose body is whose and which one they tested?
- Why were the seal hunters stranded, and how did they know Adolf Erik Nordenskiöld was in the area?
Again, very nice article - well done. Johntex\talk 17:06, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
Who?
[edit]The house was erected by the Swedes.... Which ones? All of them? Sca (talk) 21:39, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
The name
[edit]The house is actually called "Svenskhuset", not "Svenskehuset". [1] [2], [3]. I am moving the article to "Svenskhuset Tragedy". --SO2 (talk) 14:25, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
