A Notable from Iceland

Question

Here I thought Icelanders  got very excited about genealogy. But Halldor Laxness, who won a Nobel Prize for Literature,  has a pretty sparse profile,  mostly a link to a Wikipedia article. He doesn't even have any parents. Anybody want to improve his profile? I can't even add his Wikitree ID because that letter in his name isn't on my keyboard.

Next to his name, in pale green, are a pair of scissors and the phrase ID/LINK/URL.  That's what I used.

Thank you! I never knew what those little scissors were for.

Answer 1

I can add the parents and connect him to the tree, but I'm not very good at writing profiles.

Can somebody help with that?

Thank you!

Answer 2

For the letters like (Þþ or Ðð áéíóú) I use the us-international keyboard layout. There is a good article about it here. It is extremely useful for Icelandic, Spanish, German, most all European languages.
