Pretty good, just a few things to straighten out.

• payed -> paid
• "Since, Molde has entered the UEFA Cup" --> "Since then,.."
• Is the stadium ever used to concerts, religious ceremonies etc??
  • Molde is a small place (about 20,000 people), so more than half the town's population can fit in the arena. The main issue seems to be that the stadium is not used for any of the concerts during the annual Moldejazz, the country's largest jazz festival. I mentioned this and one other incident. The news reports several near misses of the club trying to get some big names to play, but they never seem to have succeeded (except the Ormen Lange show).
• Were there ever any notable crowd unrest here?
  • Nope. Norwegian football supporters outside the largest cities are very peaceful, and there can be football matches at top level without the presence of the police.
• "when Molde reached UEFA Champions League" -> missing the
• "of which most was payed" -> "most of which was paid for by"
• Was NOR v KSA a pre-WC friendly?
• "Floodlight is provided with 176 lamps, mounted at a low " In sports grounds with low lights, players often find it hard to see the ball when it goes in the air. Is that the case here?
  • That could be, but I cannot remember hearing any complaints. I did an news search in newspapers from 1998 to current, without finding any mentioning.
• Is there info on why it was nominated for the architecture prizes? What did the judges say about its merits? There should be info about this and it would be important
  • I cannot find any rationale for the specific prizes (online or in the news), except the general criteria for the awards. FIABCI's criteria are simplified "it has to be good in all possible aspects related to realty" (per here), but the City Prize is somewhat more substantial.
• "The stadium has hosted more than 10,000 spectators nineteen times" -> 19
• "1998-derby " no hyphen
• "After the tournament the seats were not taken away, and attendance capacity has been reduced" This implies that capacity was reduced after the seats were not dismantled, while the lead says that putting the seats did it

In the refs, why are Molde and UEFA listed as authors. They should be publishers. YellowMonkey (bananabucket) (help the Invincibles Featured topic drive) 06:37, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for taking the time to review the article—with express lane waiting time :) All issues have been seen to, or a comment has been made why they have not. Arsenikk ^(talk) 11:42, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
