There is a link that is not working (site is down for 5 years now) to Ferrylines.com:
" Kowalski, Oliver. "Ferry to Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Baltic, Russia, Germany". ferrylines.com. Archived from the original on 16 August 2016. Retrieved 28 August 2016. "
While there is a source now that has up-to-date ferry lines here that could be helpful: https://ferryroutes.com/baltic-sea/ 84.106.167.165 (talk) 10:07, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Government and politics > elections > first sentence: the "Social Democrats"
There should probably be a wikilink attached, like with the other parties, to an English Wikipedia page for the party which is located at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swedish_Social_Democratic_Party

Law Enforcement mentioned in the Military section
Law enforcement has a paragraph right under the Military header which seems misplaced. I checked the wiki page for a few other countries (Germany, France, Denmark, the UK, Finland), and none of them put law enforcement or police under the military section, in fact they don't mention law enforcement or police at all in the article. If nobody objects, I will therefore remove that first paragraph of the Military section. Otrebus (talk) 11:39, 23 January 2026 (UTC)
English language Media
The section should be neutral there are 3 English language websites with Swedish news https://englishnews.se, https://swedenherald.com/ and the one mentioned. They should all be given equal prominence on the page — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-10201-25 (talk) 21:38, 14 February 2026 (UTC)
Minecraft
Is Minecraft relevant enough to mention on this page? Indexcard88 (talk) 00:55, 8 March 2026 (UTC)
- What would you propose to say and using what sourcing? Nikkimaria (talk) 01:06, 8 March 2026 (UTC)
- Sweden has had a fairly notable video game impact in general, which today is probably more relevant than how much of the population are connected to cable TV. If some sources could be collected, a portion of the media sections could be dedicated to this. TylerBurden (talk) 14:17, 10 March 2026 (UTC)
