Draft has information that supplements information in article and can be merged in. Robert McClenon ( talk) 23:17, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you, Robert McClenon, for taking the time to review this article. First of all, I apologize for not noticing there was already a draft at AfC. (I can't remember the draft showing up when I created the article but perhaps I was not sufficiently attentive.) I simply wrote the article on the basis of sources I found myself as at WiR we are trying to improve coverage of women in banking and finance. I am however really surprised you tagged this article for notability. I believe the secondary sources I have referenced testify to her key position as CEO of Norway's top banking concern. Maybe articles about Norwegians do not coincide with Wikipedia's primary interest in the English-speaking world but this person nevertheless deserves recognition. I could have included many more sources in Norwegian but I tried to choose a few which would be more meaningful to those who do not understand the language. I suggest you look at them more carefully. You may then feel the notability tag is inappropriate.-- Ipigott ( talk) 14:25, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
As for your fansite tag, I can assure you I have no connections with financial institutions in Norway or this person in particular. Maybe the level of language was at times rather too enthusiastic. I am grateful to MerielGJones for toning it down a bit. My interest in Scandinavians stems simply from the fact that my wife is Danish, I speak the languages and spend quite a bit of my time in Denmark. I have created well over a thousand biographies of Scandinavian women but this is the first time I've been accused of writing an article from "a fan's point of view". I do not often write BLPs. Perhaps I should avoid them in future. It is tempting to draw on comments made by the subject of articles but can see that this leads to serious problems.-- Ipigott ( talk) 14:25, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
Such tags are derogatory and this is a BLP of a respectable businesswoman. Her predecessor does not have such tags and so neither should she. Andrew🐉( talk) 17:54, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
