Again nonsense Mogens, they where neither unsubstantiated or personal opinions,
I gave you links to show you how it's done (but didn't want to post as I would
have to translate a great deal, and it's already very off-topic).

You simply do not understand the word research. Research is not pasting together
a bunch old stuff.
Research is _doing_ something original, it has nothing to do with compiling a
compendium, that is your free and very wrong interpretation/translation.

Here it is in danish, and the correct translation goes:
"Specialet består i udførelsen af et større eksperimentelt eller/og teoretisk
arbejde. Det udføres under personlig vejledning fra en forsker, og ved dets
afslutning udarbejdes en skriftlig afhandling om specialearbejdet.

The work can be experimental and/or theoretical. It is done under the personal
guidance of a scientist, and by the end a thesis is written.

[I have moved the thread to CTF, you can respond there as it's too off-topic
here, me and Dann are have already continued there]
