Svenskt biografiskt handlexikon[edit]
Svenskt biografiskt handlexikon is a compact biographical dictionary from 1906 (2nd ed.). It includes approximately 4,000 biographies of people in Swedish history from the protestant reformation until time of publication. Lists:
- People with names beginning with A–E
- People with names beginning with F–L
- People with names beginning with M–R
- People with names beginning with S–Ö
Immediate goals:[edit]
- Change order of names in all the lists from "Surname, Givenname" to "Givenname Surname".
- Disambiguate list entries when there are several people of the same name or when a bluelink actually goes to an irrelevant page or a disambiguation page.
Long term goals[edit]
- Make sure Wikipedia has at least a decent stub on every person in SBH. SBH may not necessarily be the best or the only source to use, as it may often be outdated, but the its selection can be used as a rough notability guideline.
