Eh, might as well withdraw the nomination if so. Without the USSR, it lacks the interesting edge. Stamboliyski (talk) 12:12, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
I was suggesting it as an alternative, it's up to the admin who promotes it to choose which to use. I think the fact that it's the northernmost agriculture is a simple, very interesting fact; the strangeness of Soviet presence in Norway isn't so obviously remarkable. —innotata 04:18, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
I would consider its proximity to the North Pole to be the most remarkable fact, actually. How about this hook:
I've added some info to the article to support this hook. On the other substantive issues, the article's length is fine, its sourcing is good and its date is new enough. Once the hook is sorted it should be good to go. Prioryman (talk) 23:05, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
This works fine for me, with the added info. Stamboliyski (talk) 23:31, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
Symbol redirect vote 4.svg OK, that's great. We'll need another reviewer to approve the ALT2 hook. Prioryman (talk) 08:48, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
Symbol voting keep.svg New enough at the time of nomination, long enough, certainly very interesting (bordering on the bizarre :)), within policy. Hook (ALT2) cited and interesting. Article is well referenced (off-line sources AGF) and well written. Should be good to go. Great work! Yakikaki (talk) 22:27, 6 December 2014 (UTC)
