Stub. This man has a theory. And that's all. My theory is that he should be deleted. Radiant! 10:37, Feb 17, 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: No vote yet. This could be kept if expanded (and moved to a correct title), but I won't be sorry if the article in its present state is deleted. Hjalmar Holand was a fairly notable pseudohistorian who published several books, arguing, among other things, for the authenticity of the Kensington Stone and the Norse origin of the Newport Tower.[1] He could possibly be the subject of an interesting biographical article. / Uppland 14:49, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Keep and expand. The Vinland theory of which he was an early advocate is notable. Capitalistroadster 14:09, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep and expand.. This guy has roughly 800 hits on Google and was mentioned in TIME magazine (though you need a subscription to read the article). Erraneous capitalisation of the last name needs to be fixed by the way. --Andylkl 19:07, Feb 18, 2005 (UTC)
