Talk:Norway in the Eurovision Song Contest

Nul points

I edited back from null poeng (Norwegian for zero points) to nul points, since nul points makes sense being in the article (being part of the Eurovision-lingo), while it would make no sense to have one Norwegian expression in the middle of the article that has nothing to do with Eurovision.

Section changes

I thought the existing History section would function better as in intro (which the article didn't have) and so rewrote it, and also deleted the scoring summary table, which I think was unnecessary. D420182 06:00, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

oslo or bærum

bærum is where telenor arena is located therefore it is logical to say bærum. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.108.222 (talk) 19:40, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

host city of 2010 say oslo even though it should say bærum. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.75.65 (talk • contribs)

Please keep the discussion centralised at talk:Eurovision Song Contest 2010#bærum not a part of oslo. -- [[ axg ◉ talk ]] 19:14, 4 February 2010 (UTC) norway change host city from year to year but this year they are threatened by the EBU.

voting history

I think that it would be good to have 2 more tables with voting history: "points for Norway in other coutries ranks" "points from Norway in other countries ranks". Why? We have countries that participated in ESC for 40+ years and other that started in recent years. Say Sweden had time to collect these 150 points over 50 years, but perhaps some other country profited more from Norway votes per year (and vice versa). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.222.87.41 (talk) 19:29, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

participation for 2011 confirmed

norway will participate in 2011. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.72.121 (talk) 15:02, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

nrk themselves said that eurovision song contest 2010 was held in bærum

the person that introduced the show on nrk said that it was held in telenor arena in bærum. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.72.121 (talk) 19:06, 11 July 2010 (UTC) this article need to tell the truth. so if people cant leave bærum as host city for eurovision song contest 2010 alone, then the article should be semi protected.

this article should be semi-protected to prevent people from replacing bærum with oslo

bærum was host city of the contest itself. the mayor of bærum was involved and the police came from bærum. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.86.142 (talk) 16:23, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

according to what i have read the norwegian song for 2012 have already been internally selected

therefore melodi grand prix 2012 will be dropped. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.208.86.142 (talk) 19:18, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Most nul points

As of 2015, Norway shares the most "nul points" with Austria. They have both not received a single point four times. 193.212.95.249 (talk) 09:47, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

regarding host cities

norway and nrk have a very special way of doing stuff when hosting and never uses the same city twice(bergen 1986, oslo 1996 and bærum 2010). next time it will likely be held in trondheim but, that is speculation. security in 2010 was handled by the city of bærum(named sandvika). please fix the article so that is says bergen, oslo and bærum and then semi protect it so that it can no longer be vandalised. 84.212.100.141 (talk) 12:33, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

That claim doesn't appear to be supported by sources though. All contest outreach and media coverage listed Oslo 2010, not Bærum. If a nearby municipality assisted by providing some services, it doesn't mean they hosted the event instead. Grk1011 (talk) 13:13, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
