During World War I, a majority holding was sold to the German government in a secret arrangement.

There is not mention of this in the Swedish version of the article. Where does this information come from? Citation needed! Garrrick (talk) 03:06, 10 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I boldly removed it.~As you say, it says nothing about that in the Swedish version. // Liftarn (talk)

Lindeborg

[edit]

The focus on a former culture editor, in the history of an almost 200-years-old newspaper, seems a bit out of place to me, and a case of severe Wikipedia:Recentism. /Julle (talk) 11:31, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I would disagree. Åsa Lindeborg had very high profile, a strong influence and several controversies around her. The coverage seems rather appropriate. If you feel that the 19th century is missing information you can of course add it. Jeppiz (talk) 16:11, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I'd argue that adding 19th and 20th century coverage of individuals working at the paper to the same degree as has been done with Lindeborg, adequate to their influence on the newspaper, would make this article far too long to be reasonable encyclopedic entry. /Julle (talk) 20:19, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redundant renaming saga in paragraph 1 and 3 of history section

[edit]

Paragraphs 1 and 3 of the section Aftonbladet#History and profile in the current version redundantly describe the 25 or 26 renamings. To the casual reader, especially one who doesn't know if that particular Swedish King reigned in the XIXth or XXth or XXIst century, it seems on an initial read that there were two different periods of bans, leading, coincidentally, to almost identical numbers of renamings, especially since paragraph 3 occurs after paragraph 2 that is concerned with events of the 1950s, 1990s, and 2009. Paragraph 4 jumps back to 1890 to 1921, but doesn't clarify the epoch of redundant paragraph 3.

Someone who knows the topic and/or who can read the sources should tidy this up... Boud (talk) 20:41, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
