Bickering surrounding Nedkvitne. Now online!
This unfruitful edit war serves no purpose other to get Nedkvitne inducted into the Lamest edit wars hall. Due to the three-revert rule&mdash;which you will be breaking if you remove the accessdate once more&mdash;stopping it lies on you, really. The usual editing etiquette is to open a discussion on the issue, so here goes: The fact is that SNL is now a continuously updated, web-based source. As far as I know no further printed editions will be released, and the fact-checking by experts is now done online. It was last published in 2005-07, which is why I used 2007. You may use a book from 1995, but, unless the old entry was much more extensive, it's essentially trumphed as long as there is a newer edition. Punkmorten (talk) 09:25, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

The article on the snl.no website is identical to the article published in 1995. A printed encyclopedia is a much more reliable and serious source than something you found on the internet. The date you read a printed article published in 1995 has no relevance whatsoever to Wikipedia. Accessdates are used for websites which have no other date of publishing. As the actual date of publishing of this article written by Tor Ragner Weidling is available (SNL, 3rd edition, 1995), including a completely arbitrary date in 2009 is unncessary and not encyclopedic. It's not meant to be used for printed sources. SimonSl (talk) 23:32, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

SNL is a web source now. It's not something "I found on the internet". The printed edition is not more nor less reliable than the web edition. How hard is that to understand? Punkmorten (talk) 09:02, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
