# Talk:Magnus Olsen

Just a few quick tips.

The University of Oslo was not called that at the time, please avoid the anachronism.
Replace hyphens with endashes where applicable.
Single-sentence paragraphs and single-sentence sections should be avoided, and thus expanded or merged with other sections.
The See also section is probably too long and should be converted to prose entirely. Can you write prose about these persons in context with Olsen?

Thanks for the tips. I have now made an attempt at implementing the suggestions. Krakkos (talk) 16:46, 23 December 2020 (UTC)
These are substantial improvements. It will now stand a better change at Good Article Review. Thanks! 22:13, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

### Comments
I'll be reviewing this interesting and well-constructed article. Chiswick Chap (talk) 21:37, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

"which was founded by him." -> "which he founded."
It might be an idea to provide English translations of the 'Selected publications' titles [in square brackets].
There is really very little that this article needs, but a little copy-editing would perhaps be a good thing. I've fixed some very small issues with English.

For example, "Following the death of Bugge" -> "After Bugge's death".
The Bugge succession is stated twice! Maybe remove the second one, or better, merge the entries.
Perhaps "Philologist" would be a better heading than the rather general "University professor?
Turvill-Petre 1964 is used in the references, so it should be in "Sources" rather than "Further reading" (where Johannessen however still belongs).
Well, that's about it from me. Chiswick Chap (talk) 11:17, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the review, Chiswick Chap. I have now modified the article in accordance with your recommendations. Krakkos (talk) 14:31, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Some of the trans-titles need to be filled in? Chiswick Chap (talk) 15:06, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Done. Y Krakkos (talk) 15:48, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Super, it's a GA. Thank you for constructing such a nice article. I hope you'll take the time to pick an article or two to review from the ever-growing GAN queue. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:20, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
Great! Thanks for the suggestion. I'll see what i can do. Krakkos (talk) 16:43, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
