Untitled old thread[edit]

I saw on the news today that Sig will be Grand Marshall of the 2008 SeaFair Parade this weekend. Hollielol (talk) 18:20, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Some Minor Grammar Edits[edit]

Fixed some simple grammar mistakes, i.e. some commas and reworking of sentence structures. Not much, I know, but I don't really have the time to fix this article or even find reliable sources for all of the information - if this information is even accurate at all. I doubt this article is high on the importance scale, but these errors were really bugging me. 66.58.182.117 (talk) 09:15, 26 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Place of birth[edit]

His bio under his pic says he was born in Norway, but his bio in the article says he was the first generation born in the United States. Which is it? LeilaniLad (talk) 14:57, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

well... according to this, he was born in Seattle... but i'm not too sure if it's a reliable source or not...

His autobiography (North by Northwestern) also says he was born in Seattle, so I've corrected this in the article. SheepNotGoats (talk) 14:12, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Does he still speak norweigan????[edit]

The big question, is hi still talking norweigan. He is born i Norway and he was a big guy when they mowed. Tell me. /Marina —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.226.230.118 (talk) 21:13, 9 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fluently and with an accent from the area around Åkra in Karmøy.

Sig speaking Norwegian when he opened "fiskeridagene på Åkra"

Lead per MOSBIO and nationality[edit]

Any suggestions for improving this? --Tom (talk) 00:41, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I CE it since I am hearing cricks in here. I can't believe I am considering to going to see him in person. Has anybody been to the Deadlist Catch road performance?--Tom (talk) 21:30, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Magazine Cover?[edit]

Sig is featured on the cover of this month's (8/10) Yachting Magazine, and is part of the "Pioneers Of Adventure" article. Should that be covered on the wiki somewhere? Σεβαστός (talk) 18:57, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Possible. Maybe add that material as long as you provide citations, ect. This article is already lacking in those as it is. Cheers, --Tom (talk) 21:32, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mandy and native language[edit]

The edit you made, Flighttime is not right. It says she learned English after speaking Norwegian.Pictureperfect2 (talk) 05:48, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You put up a bio about yourself @FlightTime:. Saw how you commonly use the revert tool to erase communications on your talk page so what would be the point in saying anything on it? I noticed you're accustomed to boldly editing and throwing warnings around for almost anything. Do you resolve anything on talk pages?Pictureperfect2 (talk) 08:09, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
