Threats to Kill Varg edit

Shouldn't that be added?

Yes, with references of course. --217/83 15:08, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Concerning his name edit

"Särkkä" is indeed a Finnish name, and according to a biography I read once he was born in northern Finland (near the swedish border), whence his family moved to Sweden when he was 5. Unfortunately I cannot cite the source.

Any threats to kill people aren't really in line with Wikipedia, and neither that he was one of the few chosen ones who received parts of Dead's skull collected by Euronymous when he found Dead's body at the rehearsal place. Just trivia.

Says who? --217/83 15:08, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

'Gypsy' edit

Is he actually one, or does the author of this just take Vikernes's insult as a reference? And if he is, I think most wikipedia articles would require the use of a term like 'romani' or something like that instead...85.157.80.181 (talk) 14:50, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

Yes, he is, I know some interviews stating that (and also American Indian ancestors). But they don’t say anything about whether he is of Sinti or Roma descent so it would be wrong to add one of those terms. --217/83 15:08, 19 October 2012 (UTC)Reply


JV - I know him personally and he's a good long-time friend. He is half Native American (father), one quarter Romani Gypsy and one quarter Finnish (mother). He is a Swedish citizen. There were no threats to kill his family, that's a rumour. He's releasing a new album soon which is in the works. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.143.154.100 (talk) 09:15, 6 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Tony Särkkä was born on Dec 15th, 1972 and was thus 44 years old at the time of his departure, which was NOT on Feb 14th. This was only the date of announcement.

He was NOT a gypsy, but Finnish/native American.

He started The True Satanist Horde in Sweden, not a Swedish version of the Black Circle.

Best regards from his sister, quoted in this article. 83.250.218.161 (talk) 00:15, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Please change his birth place from Finspång to Stockholm

Please change his age 45 years old to 44 because he was born on Dec, 15th 1972.

Please change from Swedish-gypsy to Finnish/native American, because the gypsy-story is not confirmed. He became a Swedish citizen as an adult.

Please change date of death from feb 14th to feb ?? because the date is not yet confirmed.

Please change from Noted for being a member of the Swedish Black Circle to He was the founder of The True Satanist Horde in Sweden.

Please erase the sentence But left the black metal scene altogether after receiving threats to his family because this is only one minor reason to his departure from the scene.

Best regards, Desire, the sister you are referring to on this page. 83.250.218.161 (talk) 00:32, 15 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
