I'm glad you chose to write about this, as it's a tradition I've heard of but don't know much about. But:

This seems a bit short in comparison to other entries in the Edited Guide. In an entry about this tradition, which I know dates back to at least the 10th century, I would expect to see a little more about the history. Is it known when the tradition of 'skaal' was started? And if so, is there a sort of legend of how it came about? And how often is it still practiced today? Would you expect to see this occur at any Norwegian party?

Oh, and I think you mean that one should look into someone's 'eyes', not their 'ideas'.smiley - winkeye

He seems to have Elvised. Move back to entry or Flea Market? This does seem to be based in fact, so someone might fancy picking it up.

Oh. Everyone had thought you'd gone, so this entry is now going to be moved out of Peer Review and into the Flea Market so it can be worked on further.

Assuming you didn't come back, the entry would be taken up by someone else, who would finish it for you (giving you part credit for the entry of course) and get it into the Edited Guide.

If you're thinking of coming back and properly finishing this, then to save it from going to the Flea Market you should remove it from Peer Review now - go to the PeerReview page, find your entry at the bottom, and click on the X to remove it.

Good luck with the entry smiley - biggrin

Why remove it? Just ask the italics to remove it from the list for FM, at least give it a stay of execution to see if the author does find time to work on it. smiley - ok

It's been another five weeks, and profanity42 doesn't seem to have been able to find time to do anything. Put it back on the list for a move?
