Northernmost settlement?[edit]

I've changed the article text somewhat. Siorapaluk is sometimes claimed to be the northernmost settlement in the world, though that is certainly not true - see Northernmost_settlements. However, they do claim it is the northernmost 'naturally inhabited' settlement. I think I had confirmed that from some record book when I initially wrote the article, but I can't seem to find it, so perhaps I am wrong. Anyway, the claim is also referred to here, and described briefly. I've removed the reference to Longyearbyen, as its claim is not confirmed on the list of Northernmost_settlements.
