why delete my article about Vigrid (org) ?
my article about the Norwegian neo-nazi organisation Vigrid was deleted. This is the most famous right wing exstrimistic group in Norway —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mirmax77 (talk • contribs) 19:26, October 6, 2006 (UTC)


 * I was actually looking for that when I searched. There SHOULD be an article about them, not merged into this one though. Please someone, write an article. There needs to be an article about them here, especially now that they're running for election. --Theatheama (talk) 10:56, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

agreed
the article about the neo-nazi norwegian organization Vigrid should be put back —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.88.108.115 (talk) 20:33, January 7, 2007 (UTC)
 * Marginal and irrelevant to this article. Martin Manne 20:20, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Created article
I have now created an article about the Norwegian organization Vigrid in its own page. (I mostly created it as I have created articles about almost all political parties that are running for the 2009 parliamentary election in Norway, which Vigrid actually is in for the first time.) -GabaG (talk) 00:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Is this correct that Surt dies at ragnarok?
"Surtr will spray fire over the earth and burn the entire world before dying of the wounds given to him by Frey." I can't find anything else saying that. The reference is just "Faulkes (1995:54).", completely uncheckable. Are you ready for IPv6? (talk) 11:40, 27 April 2014 (UTC)
 * That's because it's nonsense and I've removed it. This was slipped in by an anonymous IP . They apparently simply made it up. I'm glad that you caught this, as it made me check the article, but we'd have been much better off if you simply deleted it. The Faulkes translation is the standard English translation of the Prose Edda, btw. &#58;bloodofox: (talk) 08:05, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Location of Vigrid? In Asgard?
This article doesn't place Vigrid at any specific location, but I've noticed that it is popular to place it in Asgard. Can anyone dig up reliable sources on Vigrid's placement, perhaps ones that state it's in Asgard? Because then we could include that "fact" in this article. --Luka1184 (talk) 11:26, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe this article contains all mentions of the location in the Old Norse record. It's not uncommon for locations form Norse myth to not go into detail about where one might imagine them to be, exactly. &#58;bloodofox: (talk) 15:43, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, but don't you find it odd that so many people would place it the exact same place? It could be in Midgard, of course, but as both Eddas state, the Surt and his fire giants rides over Bifröst and then direct themselves to Vigrid, which could imply that it is in Asgard, since it is stated Bifröst connects Asgard and Midgard and no other world, yes? The only plausible (to me at least) location I can think of is somewhere in Midgard, somewhere in Asgard or as a field located somewhere in-between somehow. The Eddic poem Fáfnismál however identifies the final battle-field as a holm (an island), and calls it "Óskópnir" (or Oscophnir in some English translations). That's where that term come from to our modern understanding. It is possible that Vigrid is a plain on an island, and it could be in the ocean of Midgard, or in water on Asgard. What do you think? --Luka1184 (talk) 13:05, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
