Talk:History of Turku

New article
Hi Peltimikko, thank you for creating the article. As most sources are offline, I have a couple of questions. TSventon (talk) 16:35, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
 * the article states that the Swedish name of Turku, Åbo, was first mentioned in 1259, do your sources say when the Finnish name was first mentioned?
 * should Finladensis episcopus be Finlandensis episcopus? I think the translation would be Bishop of Finland, rather than Finnish bishop.
 * the article mentions that the episcopal seat was moved in 1229, could you add a mention of the bishopric being established?


 * Turku is an officially bilingual city, with both Finnish and Swedish being used. The Swedish name was the first to be used, with the Finnish name appearing later in the Middle Ages. Origin is from Sweden and Russia. Additional content has been added, with sources, to the main article about Turku. Turku - Wikipedia
 * Corrected. Bishop of Finland. Finlandensis episcopus
 * There is no literal document, but I added content and a wording from a (Finnish) book source almost certainly; a degree of historical certainty.

 * Peltimikko,
 * Thank you for the explanation, however the content added to the Turku article seems to be copied from the website, which would be a copyright violation and not permitted on Wikipedia. I now realise that surviving texts in Finnish are almost all post Reformation, so any mention of the name Turku is also likely to be post Reformation.
 * Thank you
 * The National Biography of Finland source for the bishop is very helpful, I will try to streamline the text tomorrow (UTC). TSventon (talk) 23:32, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
