| The Icelandic band Þursaflokkurinn also know as Hinn Íslenzki Þursaflokkur is for some reason listed as Pursaflokkurinn. Can the archives not handle the letter Þ? |

I don't know, I can try and change it. Just a sec.

It seems to be working, the only problem is that it's quite difficult to find now, since it's not under P or any other letter.

It's not under any letter? What do you mean? Isn't it under the letter Þ? Also their album Pursabit should be Þursabit, and the album Á Hljómleikum translates to In Concert so I highly doubt that it's a studio album even though I've never heard it. Their album Gaeti Eins Verid... should also be Gæti Eins Verið...

^ On the front page, there's the option that you can search for bands
under letter P (for example). Þursaflokkurinn used to be there, but now
the only way to find them is to write the bands name in Search here band or cd ... But anyway, I fixed the others as well. Thanks Ofur! -------------

Actually I understood that that particular letter should be pronounced as a "TH". ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

| Apparently it's "th" in Anglo Saxon. |

The present listing of this band as Þursaflokkurinn is unsatisfactory, as they do not appear in any of the alphabetic pages, and cannot be searched for using a standard English keyboard. Can anyone with some knowledge of Icelandic advise on the best way to list them on an English language website? Listing them under the letter P would seem most obvious, perhaps as Pursaflokkurinn (Þursaflokkurinn )
