Pronunciation
[edit]Are you sure your 'vinge' is correct? Listen to this. http://youtube.com/watch?v=-VJHnO4sIY0
How can Rich Falconwing be a translation of Dick Greger Augustsson? Augustsson means "The son of August", and Greger doesn't really mean anything in Swedish. Is i maybe latin? In that case the page should say so. -Julian
- I think the page meant that Rick Falconwing was a direct translation of his alias - Rickard Falkvinge, not his original name. --Somnlaut 08:23, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Rick says: Several news outlets are now running headline-size stories about me as an individual; Svenska Dagbladet will be the first to break the story tomorrow June 10, if anybody's interested in updating the bio. I won't update it myself, no matter how tempting. :-) I will share my personal motto prematurely to the SvD article, though: "If you play by the rules, you will always lose." This is because in most cases, the rules can be boiled down to "STFD & STFU": a lot of people let themselves be run by other people's expectations. If you let that happen, you become a perpetual victim of circumstances. The only way to win is to not play by the rules. -- Rickard Falkvinge
Rick says: published bio here - http://www.svd.se/dynamiskt/inrikes/did_12893601.asp, more to follow
Bio expansion?
[edit]There's a lot more material on sv, as well as in several publications. I'm seeing the English bio being used as a template for several other languages, which is understandable but frustrating as it is this short, but still don't want to edit my own bio... --Falkvinge 01:02, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
I am not an exprienced wikipedia writer, but i am happy to try and update some details. After watching the google talk video, i feel i should do something. This article really needs to be more than just a stub. Here are a few links i have found and will try to write about with refrences too later, post more if you find them. Also please let me know if they are not valid/reliable or something.
- Pirate leader Falkvinge: "Our enemy has no intellectual capital to bring to the battle"
- The wiki news interview **http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/%22Avast_ye_scurvy_file_sharers%21%22:_Interview_with_Swedish_Pirate_Party_leader_Rickard_Falkvinge
- Some nice wiki images
I imagine we can reference to things said in Steal This Film part 2 by Falkvinge, and other interviews. I can't speak Swedish but luckily there are a lot of English articles out there.
The statistics like the votes for Falkvinge mentioned in the Google Video, will i need to find an independent source verfiying this or can i assume the details are correct, im not sure what the wiki policy is.--Cellarmation (talk) 10:41, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Civil Engineer vs swedish Civilingenjör
[edit]The swedish word Civilingenjör is a title and not equivalent to the English "Civil Engineer", if I remember correctly Rick studied Engineering Physics. Maybe someone could change this ? I'm quite new to editing so I try to lay low (atleast for now) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.229.9.230 (talk) 21:55, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
- I'd guess Master of Science in Physical Engineering then, or simply Master of Science in Physics? --Execvator (talk) 14:32, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
The Pirate Wheel
[edit]Hi, folks! I think that it would be interesting to add a section on The Pirate Wheel, which is a synthesis of Falkvinge's ideology. --NaBUru38 (talk) 23:39, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
