What made the citation unacceptable?
You reverted a post I did on spoon theory pointing out that it is known elsewhere by other terms and you reverted it on the grounds that citation was unacceptable "Unacceptable ref" - on what grounds is it unacceptable? Is it because it has to be referenced by something of the weight the guardian newspaper or NY newsday, and if so why is "International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society". considered as equally as weighty? What is it about Stop Sarcoidosis that make sit a lesser reference than the International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society? X-mass (talk) 03:02, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * The organization International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society appears to be serious and even has a Wikipedia article, as you can see. (Not that I have to defend all the other references when removing one!) Spoon theory is also serious. We do have an article about Sarcoidosis. It has well over 100 references and no reference to the Stop Sarcoidosis site. I see that there appear to be serious entries at that site, but the very lengthy article you referenced is less than serious and inappropriate for an encyclopedia.  --Hordaland (talk) 04:25, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Your failed access to a Norwegian wiktionary article
I have tried several time to duplicate your failure to access a certain Norwegian wiktionary article. I don't have a problem accessing the article that explains some finer points about what defines a kjuagutt. You might want to notify wiktionary about your access problems; my claim is that at least one user in Oslo has no problem accessing the definition of tjuagutt, on that page. --Gazprompt (talk) 21:54, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
