Ibsen did not receive Noble prize

Extra "a" under the 'Life and career' heading

Under the 'Life and career' heading, in the last sentence, "His decision to posthumously donate the majority of his wealth to found the Nobel Prize has been credited at least in part to him wanting to leave a behind a better legacy.", there is an extra "a", 5th word from the end of the sentence, between "leave" and "behind".

I have found proof that Nobel did not create the Nobel Prize because of a premature obituary...

Alfred Nobel's brother did die in 1888 and a French newspaper did publish a premature obituary but it didn't call him a "Merchant of Death". In fact, the term "Merchant of Death" was coined in 1932, 54 years after this obituary! I wrote up my evidence in my webpage, ^[1] but I have a conflict of interest towards editing the page itself.

I hope I am doing this right,

Thanks,

Kathy

It is fact! Time is going nervously! ..

Nobel изобрёл (бредун.. блин!) нечто и время пошло иным манером.. манерно говоря.. Но это уже изыски и потому ненужное. Кому как.

Вот например "ход Солнца". The "squaremeter" (?) of our planet get quantitymiti the Sunenergy in proportion of angle but, how?ever;), and else in proportion with length of time if grafically ..

Be happy.. don`t worry.. !! ..

Sweden or Sweden-Norway?

The article states that Alfred Nobel was born in Stockholm, Sweden. At that time, Sweden and Norway were in a personal union, and remained so until a few years after Nobel's death. So should the country of birth perhaps be updated to read "Sweden-Norway"? What, if any, is Wikipedia's policy on such issues? Ylleman (talk) 09:20, 9 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please add his relationship with Sophie Hess

Alfred Nobel entertained a relationship for 15 years with Sophie Hess.

It's already at Personal life ("Nobel's longest-lasting relationship was with Sofija Hess from Celje whom he met in 1876.") Of course the article seems to be incomplete in many aspects, and needs to be developed further. (CC) Tbhotch^™ 18:58, 12 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
