1985–1992: The Sugarcubes, marriage and motherhood[edit]

This section does not actually contain any text regarding Björk's marriage or motherhood. That information appears only near the end of the article, in the "Personal life" section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tfeledy (talk • contribs) 19:35, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bad faith edits on 1 March 2022[edit]

There are two edits (so far) made in bad faith (and poor taste) on 1 March 2022 (details below). This page should be reverted to the previous edit by Nyxaros on 24 February 2022.

Edits made in bad faith:

17:21, 1 March 2022‎ 78.0.109.105 talk‎ 148,641 bytes +31

This section can and probably should be removed after reverting the main page. Thanks. 24.4.161.86 (talk) 17:53, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Split off Lopez stalker stuff into a separate page[edit]

suggestion to split off the Lopez stalker discussion to a separate page. Its really not about Bjork but about someone with delusional fantasies about her public persona. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2603:8080:1F04:2F00:3D0F:4DAF:6649:59AC (talk) 22:22, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Impact/influence[edit]

I can't devote time to this at the moment, but this is a little nudge to any of the 500+ editors watching this article to start creating an impact section as Bjork has influenced an array of artists in modern popular music. Lapadite (talk) 05:52, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
