    Tried to add that the (two) famous classic swedish films “sälskaps resan 1 & 2” were copies of the french Les Bronzés, and remove the “is on DVD for exceptionnally cheap”.

    Got reverted after like 1 minute.

    Tried a bunch of times, complaints to no avail.

    Some years later I tried again but you could no longer make changes IIRC.

    Just checked, info still missing.

    Edit: to all the doubtfully people, here is one reversed edit I aparently did in 2023: https://sv.m.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sällskapsresan&diff=prev&oldid=53585812 If someone lnows how to search for reversed edits …

    Edit: mer info på svenska: här

    Edit: Some say the specialized “swedish” jokes in the film was stolen from a Finnish film mamed Callemoss.

      I just checked the articles for “Sällskapsresan” and “French Fried Vacation”. The only edit that was reverted (or at least the only edit whose author would’ve been notified by the revert) changed “Norwegian” to “German” on the former page. I also didn’t find “is on DVD for exceptionally cheap” anywhere. None of these articles are protected (i.e. “locked”) either. Which article did this happen on?

            The DVD ad was from ten years ago. My attempt to change things was from ten years ago. The blatant stealing/copying is still missing.

                  It strongly looks like you’re making things up lol

                  It is trivial to check what changes someone did or didn’t make 10 years ago on Wikipedia, if you know which page of Wikipedia it was on. Which page was it on?

                    My dude it was ten years ago, I looked up “Sällskapsresan” and that’s it. Maybe it was 14 years ago or 12.

                    If you’re intetested in interesting truths, check out the 4 films (les bronzés “3” wasn’t made for a long time, and sällskapsresan 3 was thus not a copy/stolen and utterly bad) and when they wete made.

      Ah, of course, I was looking at the English Wikipedia article. Still, the Swedish article mentions Les Bronzés, no?

        Oh, you are right!

        Likheter mellan Sällskapsresan och den franska filmen Les bronzés (1978) har påtalats

        A meager note IMO, and not by me, but the truth is out there ^^

        Thanks!
