"...an important trading center..."? What does others thing that means.
Seriously, I've never even heard of Stokkemarke, and claiming that it is an "important trading center" sounds like somewhat of an overstatement. The article itself goes on to explain that the "trading" is limited to a bakery, a food store (mini market?), a flower shop and an anwiques dealer. This is hardly a "center", nor "important" in any objective sense. Aside from the historical legacy, Stokkemarke is no more interesting than hundreds of other small towns, villages and hamlets in Denmark.--Nwinther (talk) 11:15, 31 July 2013 (UTC)Reply
