The article is fine. I just have a few questions about the wording. I've made some edits that you're free to revert:[1]

  • "fish planting"? - introduce fish?
  • "planting of fish" - stocking with fish?
  • "The freedom to roam grants everyone the right " - this "right" is a law or what?
    • It is both a cultural norm, a common practice and it is codified. It applies throughout the Nordic Countries, not just in designated protected areas. Its a bit like the term "private property", although it may be codified, the concept is much broader and older than the laws which govern it. My point in the article was that these rights are governed at a higher level than just being enforced by law in the wilderness area. Arsenikk (talk) 06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Meanwhile, I'll put the article on hold. Best wishes, MathewTownsend (talk) 23:45, 12 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the review and comments. Everything should be looked into now. Arsenikk (talk) 06:01, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  • I made a few more minor edits[2] which you're free to revert.
