Hendricus

Hello Hendricus! It was interesting to see a link to Latin being added to [[:en:Category:Members of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences]]. Unfortunately it looks like you have confused two Swedish academies in your recent contributions. The [[:en:Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences]] / [[:sv:Kungliga Vetenskapsakademien]] is and always has been located in Stockholm, was founded in 1739, is the body handing out the Nobel prizes. It is their building on the photo in [[Regalis Societas Scientiarum Upsaliensis]]. There is also an academy called the [[:en:Royal Society of Sciences in Uppsala]] / [[:sv:Kungliga Vetenskaps-Societeten i Uppsala]], which unsurprisingly is located in Uppsala, and was founded in 1710. This society has never been nearly as notable as the Stockholm-based societyacademy, which actually was founded because the Uppsala society (closely tied to the university there) was seen as inadequate by the founders of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. Therefore, we so far haven't bothered to create a category for their members. I would appreciate if you could correct the article(s), category and interwiki link!
