User:Pdebee/Project page/Places in Finland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The purpose of the present user page is to manage the project of identifying places in Finland (mainly former municipalities) for which there are no articles here at the en.Wikipedia, and which could therefore be considered as candidates for translation from their equivalent articles at the Finnish Wikipedia.
This is a Wikipedia user page. This is not an encyclopedia article or the talk page for an encyclopedia article. If you find this page on any site other than Wikipedia, you are viewing a mirror site.

The motivation behind this project is that, even though they have been amalgamated into larger conurbations (or ceded to the USSR in the 1940s), these former municipalities have a distinct history in their own right, and/or are the birth places of notable people, or have notable features, such a churches, monuments, lakes, canals, etc.
