- How about mentioning Isberg's nationality? I think Norwegian executions of criminals should draw the eye. This could be done by adding "Norwegian executioner" before the name. And rather than audience how about using the word "crowd" in the first hook, same goes for the second, only there it might be an idea to state "by a crowd of about 5,000 spectators".

Hook seems good. Length and Date are fine. Article could use some copy-editing, though.

- Thank you for the review. I did some copyediting to both articles. If you think more is needed, mayby you could specify what kind of copyedit you are thinking of (language issues (spelling, grammar)? structure? style?) Oceanh (talk) 21:13, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
- I did some additional copyediting, and now believe the article is ready.
If anyone else has something to point out, though, be my guest.
