Help request[edit]
There is a query re the launch date of HSwMS Thordön (1865) being discussed at WT:MILHIST#HSwMS Thordön (1865). Are there any members of this WikiProject that have access to online historical Swedish newspapers that are able to confirm the actual date of launch? Mjroots (talk) 09:06, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Replied to this at MILHIST. For future reference, pretty much all Swedish newspapers ever published are searchable through tidningar.kb.se. OCR isn't perfect but I had no problem finding articles about Thordön. Peter Isotalo 16:20, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Smörgåstårta[edit]
Is this dish a cake or a sandwich? Additionally, if anyone can add any sources to prove this dish's notability, that would be much appreciated. BaduFerreira (talk) 15:38, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
- Your question is privy to perpetual debate in Swedenland, it is unlikely to be settled before we're all dead and buried. :) Draken Bowser (talk) 15:56, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
- Background: BaduFerreira thinks that it is a sandwich and removed the texts about cake. Based on what the article said, in my opinion it is somewhere halfway a sandwich and cake. But as long as BaduFerreira gives no sources of it being a sandwich/not being a cake, the standing consensus should be maintained. The Banner talk 07:40, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- I think you're right, if I can find the time among my other projects I'll try to help out with sources. In the meantime we can consider the following description from the first sentence of the Swedish article: "Smörgåstårta is a cake-like sandwich dish.." Draken Bowser (talk) 07:50, 14 April 2024 (UTC)
- Maybe Julle can translate Endast Sverige svenska smörgåstårtor har to English to help sort this out... /Haxpett (talk) 13:06, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- I'd argue most sources talk about it primarily as a cake made out of sandwiches, rather than a cake-like sandwich. See for example:
- Smörgåstårtan fyller 50 år (Sveriges Television)
- Smörgåstårtans historia (ICA)
- Smörgåstårtans verkliga historia eller Vad är det för upphovsrätt i en maträtt? (Taffel)
- Smörgåstårtan – hetare än någonsin? (Expressen), contradicting some information about the history of the smörgåstårta in the SVT article linked above
- Varför finns det fortfarande smörgåstårta? (Sveriges Radio, radio, not the short text)
- Removing all mentions of cake is not line with how the sources treat it. /Julle (talk) 14:15, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
