• Date, size, QPQ, copy-vio, all check out. There is a typo in the hook. Besides, the article says that he lived in the hut only for three years, so several years is a bit of exaggeration. —Vensatry _(ping) 08:11, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

• Thank you for the review. I have fixed the typo, and added an alternative hook below. Oceanh (talk) 12:20, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

• ALT1:... that Håkon Evjenth lived a few years in a turf hut at the Varanger Peninsula, along with his wife?

• Why not mention the actual time span when it's available in the article? —Vensatry _(ping) 16:32, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

• OK, the source says he lived four years in the self-made turf hut, and I included this in the article. He received a grant for the years 1927, -28, -29 and -30, which makes four years, not three. See alt2 below.Oceanh (talk) 12:17, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

• ALT2:... that Håkon Evjenth lived four years in a turf hut at the Varanger Peninsula, along with his wife?

This could well be argued this way too—1927-28, 1928-29, 1929-30 (3 years). It's better if we mention the period. —Vensatry _(ping) 14:07, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

What about this:

• ALT3:... that from 1927 to 1930 Håkon Evjenth lived in a turf hut at the Varanger Peninsula, along with his wife?

• All okay! AGF on the foreign-language hook. —Vensatry _(ping) 06:43, 6 October 2015 (UTC)
