Regarding the merge with Jólasveinar, it is a matter of course. It is the same phenomenon. I suggest that the new article be named "Yule Lads". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andri Egilsson (talkcontribs)

Yeah, I agree - these two should obviously be merged. I personally think the new article should be at Jólasveinar, though, since that's their actual name, but it's not really a big issue. :) -- Schnee (cheeks clone) 21:58, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Of course they should be merged, but it is essential that they will be merged under the name Jólasveinar, although the term Yule Lads can be used beside the original correct term. (Vammlaus 18:35, 25 December 2006 (UTC))[reply]
