Untitled[edit]
In the Wallander serie, I put away the links for the years... Does not bring anything, since under any year article you cannot find any information about Mankell or any of his books. When I have time, I'll do it for the other books. Kernitou what?????
"Ystad (pronounced Ue-stad ("ue" as in "muesli" and "a" as in "father" - not pronounced as in the recent 2008 UK television adaptation)"[edit]
Isn't this just how they pronounced it in the BBC series? I don't remember them saying it differently. 78.129.231.2 (talk) 04:07, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Gaza flotilla attack[edit]
This section was written in a transparently biased fashion, stating that Israeli soldiers boarded the ships and "found terrorists aboard" who attacked the soldiers. First, many dispute that there were armed protesters aboard, and even if there were, it would be inappropriate to call them "terrorists" in a wikipedia article, since even on the Israeli version, they attacked soldiers who boarded the ship in international waters, not civilians. I have changed the wording somewhat. -- EduardGrebe —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.142.183.154 (talk) 21:26, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Africa[edit]
I would like to see Mankell's interest in Africa, where he spends half of his time, in the lead. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:15, 26 August 2011 (UTC)
Isolated Quotation on Europe and Islam.[edit]
This seems to be taken from an interview done to promote/discuss a play. Its place in the politics section really feels like someone has chosen it to portray Mankell in a particular way. Perhaps someone who understands Norwegian (interview is in Norwegian) could provide some context? Without context, its prominence comes across as quote-mining. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Japanscot (talk • contribs) 22:31, 2 February 2014 (UTC)
Antisemitism[edit]
"He claimed not to have encountered antisemitism during his journey (in Palestine)"
It would be strange indeed for him to have encountered antisemitism during his journey among Palestinians, since they are themselves Semites. ---Dagme (talk) 23:00, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
