Districts of Reykjavík
I see that you are creating articles for districts of Reykjavík. The three that I have seen are all one sentence stub articles. Are you able to expand them? If not they may be better as redirects to Reykjavík. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 23:05, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Sheriff, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Icelandic (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

List of Icelandic Newspapers
Hi, S.Örvarr.S, I've changed your nomination on the above article for speedy deletion to db-empty because "nothing links here" isn't a valid criterion for speedy; please see WP:CSD for the full list of criteria. Thanks, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 00:21, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Updating archived links
We usually don't update archived links to moved pages. There is a working redirect at 2008–2011 Icelandic financial crisis so an update is unnecessary, and potentially confusing when the archive is clearly from before 2012. PrimeHunter (talk) 04:22, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Lúðvík Geirsson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Speedy deletion nomination of List of parliaments of Iceland

Articles on various Althing members
Hi! Ive spent some time tagging a number of biographies from current parliament members in Iceland. The notability tag is placed because the article itself gives no indication of notability. You might think about expanding each of the articles from the material in the official Althing biography. The articles need other sources which point to notability. Newspaper articles, etc that point out important activities of the subjects would help. I am writing this with the hope that it is helpful since you have taken on a number of new articles which will need attention. Keep on editing! Stormbay (talk) 22:01, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Economic and Trade Committee (Iceland), without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. – Arms &amp; Hearts (talk) 21:03, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Geirs H. Haarde


A tag has been placed on Geirs H. Haarde requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Empty categories
You created dozens of empty categories, e.g. Category:1918 establishments in Iceland. Empty categories are normally speedy deleted. Having redlinks in lists of categories (i.e. "by year") is not a problem, but the cats should only be created if at least one article is in them. Please stop creating empty categories. Fram (talk) 09:01, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I have been creating a bunch of related articles lately that make use of those categories - about 13 articles just yesterday. I have many more articles to create about the same subject and I just got tired of creating the categories ad hoc. Don't worry, I'm done for now with the categories.
