Possible WP:HOAX; almost certainly fails WP:N, WP:V. No relevant results on Google Books and Google Scholar. No apparent WP:RS results on Google Web. More specific searches like or  show no relevant results. One of the two sources—both submitted by the creator of the page (new user, 6 edits)—is searchable through Google Books but it doesn't seem to have any references to Bjorn Sigurdsson, the Arctic Circle Whaling Company or James Geiss — Rankiri (talk) 19:28, 5 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete as hoax. No GBooks hits for his alleged company   and you don't kill a whale with a knife. Edward321 (talk) 03:30, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete I checked one of the references provided by the author of this article and discussed what I found on the talk page. Basically, the reference was incorrect and the book does not mention anything named in this article, including Bjorn Sigurdsson. I doubt Sigurdsson even existed.-Schnurrbart (talk) 03:45, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
