[edit] Danish elections

[edit] Flora: number of plants

It cannot be correct that only 400 kinds of plants exist on the Faroe Islands, since there are at least 400 species of bryophytes (mosses, liverworts & hornworts) only. (Lindbergia, Dutch & Nordic Bryological Societies, 1976). -HdB

OK, i removed it. uackor 12:52, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hello...

I wasn't aware of this project until recently. I'll endeavour to add stuff as and when I can, but I don't pretend to know much about Faroe. I have already created one or two relevant articles such as Languages of the Faroe Islands. I have also added some Faroese content to articles such as Papar and Norse-Gaels.

If you are interested, there is a semi-related project at - Wikipedia:WikiProject Scottish Islands, which includes Orkney and Shetland. (Please note, I do not automatically assume that Shetland and Orkney are Scottish - I think they have the right to self-determination as they wish, just as Scotland should have from Britain. I am aware of their history...) I will advertise the Faroese project over on the WPSI page too. --MacRusgail 17:59, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Super, unfortunately I do not know much about Orkney and Shetland except where they are located ;-) I created this project about half a year ago and it is not very active yet, but hopefully it will be (some day :-) uackor 16:57, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
I'm hoping there could be some "cross-fertilisation" too. We've been working hard to try and set up decent infoboxes for all the islands. I think the Greek islands have the best ones so far from what I can tell. --MacRusgail 14:23, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Danish parliamentary election, 2007

Could someone please take a look at the Faroe Islands part of the Danish parliamentary election, 2007 article? I live in Denmark and have no idea which parties from the Faroe Islands are able to run. Currently, several Faroese parties are listed as "likely to run", and it would be nice to move them to either the "running" or "not running" sections if and when it is known whether they will run or not.

[edit] Víkingur Gøta

Hello, can anybody take a look at this article and check it with the sources listed? --Boguslav (talk) 18:09, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Draft Guidelines for Lists of companies by country - Feedback Requested

Within WikiProject Companies I am trying to establish guidelines for all Lists of companies by country, the implementation of which would hopefully ensure a minimum quality standard and level of consistency across all of these related but currently disparate articles. The ultimate goal is the improvement of these articles to Featured List status. As a WikiProject that currently has one of these lists within your scope, I would really appreciate your feedback! You can find the draft guidelines here. Thanks for your help as we look to build consensus and improve Wikipedia! - Richc80 (talk) 21:23, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tórshavn and Mariehamn

I just noticed that Tórshavn is listed as a sister city of Mariehamn in Mariehamn#Sister cities, but that Mariehamn is not listed as a sister city of Tórshavn in Tórshavn#Twinnings. Which is correct? AecisBrievenbus 13:39, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Picture of Toftir indicated as Runavík

The very clear and professional photo as is incating the village Toftir is exchanged with a Runavík photo. In fact a kind of shame there is no photo of the Runavík.

Someone who can make this to happen?????? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Anthoniussen (talk • contribs) 00:12, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
