Hi, I'll review this! MathewTownsend (talk) 18:51, 12 September 2012 (UTC) The article is fine. I just have a few questions about the wording. I've made some edits that you're free to revert:
 * review


 * "The nature is affected by a short growing season" - do you mean the wilderness area is affected? or someother word? The landscape?
 * Rephrased. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "is affected" and "has been affect" in two sentences in a row - vary the wording?
 * Fixed. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "loss of fish-life" - can it be just "loss of fish"?
 * Fixed. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * " It is located entirely within Inari," - what is Inari? Did I miss an explanation?
 * Added that it is a municipality. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "the reserve's eastern border is identical to the Finland–Norway border." could you say: the reserve's eastern border is the Finland–Norway border?
 * I guess that would work. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "Water levels are now highest during autumn and lowest during spring" - is that opposite from the past?
 * Yes, added explanation. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "farming with cattle and sheep" - farming and herding cattle and sheep? cattle and sheep farms?
 * Better. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "fish planting"? - introduce fish?
 * "planting of fish" - stocking with fish?
 * The source is in English and uses the exact phrase "fish planting", although I to be honest am not sure what that would actually imply. I've changed it to your proposals. Arsenikk (talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "The reserve is located in a lay area" - what is a lay area?
 * Trying to both rights "lays in an area" and "located in an area" at the same time. <strong style="color:green;">Arsenikk <sup style="color:grey;">(talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * "The freedom to roam grants everyone the right " - this "right" is a law or what?
 * It is both a cultural norm, a common practice and it is codified. It applies throughout the Nordic Countries, not just in designated protected areas. Its a bit like the term "private property", although it may be codified, the concept is much broader and older than the laws which govern it. My point in the article was that these rights are governed at a higher level than just being enforced by law in the wilderness area. <strong style="color:green;">Arsenikk <sup style="color:grey;">(talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * suggest linking the fells again in the body of the article. It's not a familiar term to many.
 * Sure. <strong style="color:green;">Arsenikk <sup style="color:grey;">(talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Meanwhile, I'll put the article on hold. Best wishes, MathewTownsend (talk) 23:45, 12 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the review and comments. Everything should be looked into now. <strong style="color:green;">Arsenikk <sup style="color:grey;">(talk)  06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)


 * I made a few more minor edits which you're free to revert.
