[edit] Link to weird text

User:Anthony Appleyard inserted the link http://www.fullbooks.com/The-Discovery-of-Muscovy-etc-2.html. I do not know what it is, but it is not a translation of the text on wikisource. I will revert. /Pieter Kuiper 22:35, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Seems to be relevant at least. Only needs an explanation. Inge 11:13, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ohthere of Hålogaland

For good English, all occurrences here of 'Ohthere from Hålogaland' should be changed to 'Ohthere of Hålogaland'. Also, I've added two Fact requests. One is for the idea that Ohthere's account includes the "earliest known written source for the terms "Norway" and "Denmark"": the source is good, and it seems to be true for Denmark, but what about Norway? The other is for where he might have lived. Nortonius (talk) 13:53, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
