LIBRIS has 1987 as the publication year for the book by Jansson (the ISBN matches). You should probably doublecheck this. (And Sven B. F. Jansson should lead to an article...) Olaus (talk) 14:34, 9 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it is the book he published in 1987, but my edition is from 1997, and so I think that year should be referenced as there may be differences in page numbers.--Berig (talk) 14:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
I added "1987" in brackets after "1997". I hope that makes sense. Srnec (talk) 23:24, 9 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Fine. I wasn't sure if a reprint was intended or if it was just a typo. Olaus (talk) 06:46, 10 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
