This newly established thread:

Foretold Own Death
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/foretold-own-death.63762/

... might well be merged with these earlier two threads about foreseeing / predicting one's own death:

Predicting your own death
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/predicting-your-own-death.32135/

People who foresee their own death
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/people-who-foresee-their-own-death.59918/

Done (and renamed), but I can't find that last one you mention.
 
This thread on 'Somerton Man':

http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/somerton-man.48721/

... seems to have been overlooked by searchers keying on the other label attached to this mystery man case - 'Tamam Shud'.

I recommend the thread title be modified by appending (e.g.) '... / Tamam Shud Mystery' to facilitate finding it.

Edit to Add:

... And I recommend merging this later thread (addressing a book on the case):

http://forum.forteantimes.com/index...s-feature-story-the-tamam-shud-mystery.62368/

... into the re-titled thread.

Done.
 
Damn it ... :headbang:

The newly consolidated Tamam Shud thread is already poised to spawn an unrelated tangent about another case.

In an attempt to forestall the seemingly inevitable ... :roll:

Please create a new thread entitled:

The Isdal Woman (Unidentified Body; Norway, 1970)

... or something equivalent ...

... and populate it with the following previous posts trnsplanted from two other threads (all of whose external links are still viable):

===========
Strange Deaths
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/strange-deaths.10395/

Posts #2048 and 2051

===========
Somerton Man ...
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/somerton-man-the-tamam-shud-mystery.48721/

Post #45
( ... and any subsequent ones which have appeared addressing Isdal Woman rather than Somerton Man)

These 3 are the only posts I've found on FTMB addressing the Isdal Woman story.

FORTEAN NATIONS: SWEDEN

I made my first test run seeking candidates for a Fortean Nations subsection on Sweden. Sweden figures in a number of threads, but these seem to be the ones that are most Sweden-specific.

NOTE: This test run has made me suspect creation of viable sections on individual nations may prove unworkable. For example, the Sweden experiment left me wondering whether it would be wiser to organize things at a coarser granularity (e.g., Scandinavia / Nordic Nations collectively).

We already have an established thread on the topic of cryptids that attack / kil / etc.l:

http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/eaten-by-cryptozoology.61831/

I'd recommend this newly-started thread:

Death by Cryptid
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/death-by-cryptid.63807/

... be merged into the established one.

(It might be useful to modify the title to indicate a more general scope of cryptid mischief than eating us.)

Done: When Cryptids Attack
 
 
 
We have multiple threads titled as addressing severed feet incidents:

Severed Leg (And Feet) Mysteries
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/severed-leg-and-feet-mysteries.30835/

Severed Feet
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/severed-feet.39460/

severed feet washing up on shore in NW
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index.php?threads/severed-feet-washing-up-on-shore-in-nw.46528/

Why do severed human feet keep turning up in Bath?
http://forum.forteantimes.com/index...red-human-feet-keep-turning-up-in-bath.61578/


The first one listed above also has some severed hand(s) items.

I recommend these be merged and titled to reflect a scope limited to legs / feet.

There are plenty of threads dealing with severed arms / hands and severed heads / decapitation, so any notion of making the merged thread one which covers all such severing will entail combining many more pieces.
