Talk:Susanne Sundfør

Why is this article not in english on the english wikipedia page?

Untitled
Norwegians who write on Norwegian subject in the English version of Wikipedia should make an effort to write from the perspective of an international audience. Sometimes this may require the help of a non-Norwegian consultant (even if Norwegians usually do not find it necessary to ask the advice of non-Norwegians when they attempt to write English).

The present article is (1) seriously defective in English and (2) parochial in perspective.

That is to say, (1) it is written in a bastard form of English that can only seem to be correct English when read by Norwegians. (An English-speaking reader with some knowledge of Norwegian will instantly recognize that the author was a Norwegian who believed he or she was a competent writer of English.) Also, (2) it is written a way that presupposes an intimate knowledge of certain specifically Norwegian institutions.

(1) On the article's linguistic problems: this brief article includes numerous false translations. It uses "support" to mean "accompany" (in the musical sense; twice), "critique" to mean "review", "price" to mean "prize", "psalm" to mean "hymn".

(2) On the article's cultural parochialism: The references to "by:Larm", "Spellemannsprisen" and "Store Studio" mean nothing to non-Norwegians. It is not enough to link those phrases to equally parochial Wikipedia articles. For example, "Store Studio" should be glossed as a program on a Norwegian television channel, and so on.

An alternative and simpler solution to these problems would be to delete some of the information because it is of too little interest to any conceivable reader outside the borders of Norway. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mstarli (talk • contribs) 06:21, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Your attitude seems unnecessarily hostile. In most of those contexts, the information is understandable, so why don't you take the initiative to change it into more flowing prose, being a fluent English speaker?  Spellmansprisen is probably the most important Norwegian music award, so it's more than notable, and it's linked right there in the article, so just click it if you're curious.  And while Suzanne Sundfør might have the majority of her fanbase in Norway, she is a fairly big star that gets a lot of media coverage.  And if it doesn't interest you personally, then stop worrying about it. Strachkvas (talk) 06:32, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Reincarnation
"Reincarnation", the second track on Music For People in Trouble, was released as a digital only single some time in 2016 if I recall correctly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.146.67.222 (talk) 21:20, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Interesting info. Music for People in Trouble seems to only mention two singles. However, I found a concert review from 2017 which mentions last year's sporadic single, "Reincarnation"
 * The track was shared as a free download in 2016 to precede a show she had the following week, but it wasn't released as a single. —  sᴘᴀᴄᴇsᴏɴɢ  •  ᴛᴀʟᴋ  14:24, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
