I am nominating this for featured list removal because it's not up to scratch with current standards. To whit:
  • Starts with "This is a list...", we don't do that any more.
  • Far too much over bolding in the lead, see WP:MOSBOLD.
  • Image caption shouldn't have a full stop.
  • Out of date: "...and the term ends...." that was three years ago.
  • Lead is too short with two mini-paras, see WP:LEAD.
  • Table needs to meet MOS:DTT per current standards.
  • Per WP:ACCESS, you shouldn't just be using colour alone to denote something, accessible symbols should be used as well, e.g. {{dagger}}.
  • Shouldn't "Østfold" sort as "Ostfold"?
    • Eastern Fold now sorts as Cheese Fold (it's funny if you understand Norwegian) Arsenikk (talk) 17:54, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • Where are the links to constituencies such as"Sør-Trøndelag"?
  • "As of November 2007,[dated info]" needs, well, up to date info.

I've started working on the issues. Still needs some more sources and work on the lead, though. Work to be continued. Arsenikk (talk) 17:54, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Excellent, good start. Thanks for your efforts thus far. The Rambling Man (talk) 09:36, 2 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
All the issues above have been seen to, and a number of other issues have been fixed. Per right now refs for parliamentary leaders and minister posts are lacking (these are easy to find, but I need to get around to doing it), otherwise it should all be covered. Perhaps a second pair of eyes could take a look at the article and see if there are any other issues? Also, according to consensus in relation to the naming of Parliament of Norway, the article should be moved to "List of members of the Parliament of Norway 2005–2009".

  • Keep now my major concerns have been addressed. Feel free to move list but after FLRC so none of the links get too messy. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:17, 27 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments – Found quite a few issues that I'd like to see addressed while this is here.
  • In the first paragraph, there are two list-like sentences. One has a "the" before the last item (Centre Party), and none before Liberal Party in the other. I'm fine with either way, but it would be better if they were consistent.
  • Remove the comma after "This means that representatives from different political parties".
  • "if a party's initial representation in Stortinget is proportionally less than it share of votes". "it" → "its".
  • Alt text for the lead image would be a nicety.
  • By county and party: Typo in "brea-down".
  • List of representatives: Maybe it's just me, but the first two words of the heading seem redundant, and I think Representatives would be a more effective heading.
  • In the Karl Eirik Schjott-Pedersen entry's note, a space is needed after the last parenthesis mark. Giants2008 (Talk) 02:35, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • One more I found while checking the previous responses: In "This means that representatives from different political parties are elected from 19 constituency", shouldn't the last word be "constituencies" instead? Giants2008 (Talk) 18:16, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]


  • Keep meets the criteria (discard this vote if unappropriated, but I was not the original contributor, just stepping in to save an article). Arsenikk (talk) 13:40, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
