Ref #1 ( literaturbanken.se ) is literally a single sentence.  Ref #2 ( libris.kb.se ) is just a search result listing Ref #3 ( libris.kb.se ) is some kind of a database entry, consisting of name, DOB/DOD and a 4-word description Ref #4 ( yksityiskoulut.fi ) is a passing mention, listing her in a list of rectors.  I'm also unclear what makes this a reliable source.  Ref #5 ( libris.kb.se )  is a barebones library database entry about a book Ref #6 ( litteraturbanken.se ) is an extremely brief description of a play Absolutely none of these is useful in the least for demonstrating the subject meets either GNG or NAUTHOR.  - Ljleppan ( talk ) 14:46, 7 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

We can probably combine sources for WP:BASIC here.  For example, [92] [93] [94] [95] [96] [97] — siro χ o 08:33, 14 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] These all look like extremely passing mentions, what meaningful thing is there to say about the subject based on these?  Ljleppan ( talk ) 11:10, 14 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] @ Siroxo : I learned and enjoyed your careful and intelligent look.  I definitely agree with you, we can at least look into this: WP:BASIC for this subject.  — Patricia ( Talk ) 11:24, 14 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

There are some book previews as Siroxo found but unless someone can translate them, they're effectively useless.  I can't figure out how to copy and paste them into a translation app.  These refs may meet technically meet the notability guidelines but not the spirit if they're unusable to writers on this Wikipedia.  @ Siroxo , @ Ljleppan and @ Patricia Mannerheim , if any of you can translate or figure a way to paste this material into a translator, I am open to revisiting my "delete" - ping me.  -- A.

Again, very brief.  I don't see how any this is useful for GNG purposes.  Ljleppan ( talk ) 18:31, 21 October 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Ljleppan , thanks.  -- A. B.
