Talk:Norway

message: On the WikiProject Countries talk page, the section Location Maps for European countries had shown new maps created by David Liuzzo, that are available for the countries of the European continent, and for countries of the European Union exist in two versions. From November 16, 2006 till January 31, 2007, a poll had tried to find a consensus for usage of 'old' or of which and where 'new' version maps. Please note that since January 1, 2007 all new maps became updated by David Liuzzo (including a world locator, enlarged cut-out for small countries) and as of February 4, 2007 the restricted licence that had jeopardized their availability on Wikimedia Commons, became more free. At its closing, 25 people had spoken in favor of either of the two presented usages of new versions but neither version had reached a consensus (12 and 13), and 18 had preferred old maps.As this outcome cannot justify reverting of new maps that had become used for some countries, seconds before February 5, 2007 a survey started that will be closed soon at February 20, 2007 23:59:59. It should establish two things:
*whether the new style maps may be applied as soon as some might become available for countries outside the European continent (or such to depend on future discussions),
*which new version (with of without indicating the entire European Union by a separate shade) should be applied for which countries.
Please read the discussion (also in other sections α, β, γ, δ, ε, ζ, η, θ) and in particular the arguments offered by the forementioned poll, while realizing some comments to have been made prior to updating the maps, and all prior to modifying the licences, before carefully reading the presentation of the currently open survey. You are invited to only then finally make up your mind and vote for only one option.There mustnot be 'oppose' votes; if none of the options would be appreciated, you could vote for the option you might with some effort find least difficult to live with - rather like elections only allowing to vote for one of several candidates. Obviously, you are most welcome to leave a brief argumentation with your vote. Kind regards. — SomeHuman 00:28, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Please change "The unified kingdom of Norway was established in 872 as a merger of petty kingdoms and has existed continuously for 1150–151 years" to "The unified kingdom of Norway was established in 872 as a merger of petty kingdoms and has existed continuously for over 1150 years".

replies: text: I have changed age to  which currently displays as "1150-1151 years". This is better than a static "over 1150 years" because it is dynamic: next year it will say "1151-1152 years"  EubieDrew  (talk)  ~  16:53, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

message: Which areas of Norway's economy has no state regulations?
The article says a prosperous capitalist welfare state, it features a combination of free market activity and large state ownership in certain key sectors
There is well sourced data about the welfare state but not about areas of free market (supposing there is any of relevance)
Also, the line prosperous capitalist welfare state, should the word capitalist be there? 186.22.17.160 (talk) 11:23, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
