(

... that Sigurd Slembe is a trilogy of plays by Bjørnstjerne Bjørnson about a worthless bastard who tries to seize the throne of Norway?

Interesting influential plays, on few but good sources, and I can read the German one ;) - No copyvio obvious. The German tells me that Slembe translates to "Unbändiger" or "Unruhestifter", someone not to be tamed and creating unrest, - if there's a good phrase to capture that in English it might make the hook even more interesting than "worthless". I accept the offline source AGF. - I linked to the theatre on the Meiningen article and will try to expand the theatre's article by the time it appears, especially adding an image of the burnt building. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:46, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Thanks Gerda. Could you please clarify the status of your review though? You've used the {{subst:DYK?}} icon, which normally indicates that there's an issue that needs to be resolved, but you've not raised any issues. Did you mean to use a different icon?

I raised the issue: if you wanted to perhaps change the hook because of unrest-creater (better term needed) being more colourful than "worthless". Let's do it like this: I approve

- but keep it watched in case you have more ideas. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:25, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
