Albert Eide Parr
Do you have any English-language sources for the article you created on Albert Eide Parr? Also, if any text was copied or translated from the Norwegian-language Wikipedia, be sure to provide the proper attribution. Senator2029 ➔leave me a message 20:34, 24 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I added two English-language sources to the article. It would be fine if you could expand the biography with more details from these or other sources. Oceanh (talk) 07:57, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you.  I appreciate your quick reply!  I'll look into that later on today. Senator2029  ➔leave me a message  17:18, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Egersund and Arendal
Thanks, Oceanh. They're the first two articles of a renewed effort on my part to write an article on every single notable incident that occurred during the 1940 Norwegian Campaign (I wrote a few articles a couple of years ago too). These two articles have been very educational for me to write. I already knew the when, where and some of the why in advance, but it's been nice to research the details. Cheers.
