If a branch specific source is not high enough quality for this set of editors, then we are not going to get far with motorcycling in
Knowledge (XXG). I have identified several edits I would like to make that will make this a much richer place for those wanting further expertise on motorcycling (on other subjects), but I'm not sure I have time and energy to champion my own credibility on each fact presented. May I suggest that Editors that believe that I am biased consider themselves biased and allow others to edit my future edits? Peace.--
285:. The subject's journalism writing is basically low-level staff work at motorcycling publications, with no major original contributions, scoops, or otherwise influential writing. The most significant non-journalistic feat seems to be having ridden a motorcycle down a slalom course, but it doesn't seem to have caused much of a ripple in independent sources.
493:
Thank you for the unbiased edits then EEng and
Dbratland. I came here to write this specific article and with the field specific sources at hand. I could have called myself TorSagen. Can I not edit an article on Beethoven under the user name Beethoven? Now, I shall endeavour to make this more solid.
396:
Eh, change your address? Move to Sweden! Though I hear the biker gangs there are dangerous. Seriously, your effort to improve the wiki is appreciated; it just so happens that the first one you picked is not the most notable one--don't let it get you down, just try again. It can be difficult to write
368:
Have tried to add one of the few
Norwegians who has done an international career in this field. But obviously failed in my editing process. Any constructive advice on what I should do to avoid Sagen hunting me down for ruining the page about him greatly appreciated. Links added yesterday to source
397:
an objective biography and description, no doubt, and I for one do not think that you set out to write a vanity piece. As for Tor, you can always tell him that as long as he writes decent articles he'll keep his job, with or without a
Knowledge (XXG) article. Take it easy,

It's getting sadder. Sagen/Raptorama are obviously the same person, so unless he's planning to harm himself he should be safe from, er, himself. This is why autobios are so frowned upon: they waste everyone's time.
154:
189:. The article cites a single Norwegian source from 2007 and I can't find any to add. Tagged for notability since Sept 2009: if there were more sources to add, I guess they would've been added by now.
570:
Sorry, supplying reliable sources on everything is part of the job. And please, don't try to sell us on the idea that you're not Sagen, or someone close to him. You even have a second account,

I note that the second of these two editors recently added sources to the article, but that -- their quality aside (some were blogs) -- these appeared to be articles

Well, I don't have any proof of that, and I'll assume good faith since I personally have no reason to do otherwise. Now, EEng, which article on the pedia is
