Talk:Penkkarit

Original research
Okay, it's not exactly original research, but this was the best match template I could find given that the bottom of the article says much of it was based on childhood experiences of the writer. It needs more sources and references at the very least. -- BlueSquadron Raven 14:36, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I believe a personal childhood experience is original research, so I removed the "reference." Khatru2 04:27, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Penkinpainajaiset should be the name
as it is in the Finnish Wikipedia. It is the official name. --88.114.235.214 21:55, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Requested move

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: No consensus. Google results suggest that Penkkarit is six times more common in English. When judging WP:COMMONNAME we go by what is the most common term in English. Though it would not directly affect the decision, 'penkkarit' may also be more widely used than the long form in Finnish text judging from the results from www.google.fi. The debate has already been relisted once so more time is unlikely to help. EdJohnston (talk) 03:48, 23 March 2014 (UTC)

Penkkarit → Penkinpainajaiset – "Penkinpainajaiset" is the official name, "Penkkarit" is just a slang word for it. The Finnish article uses the official name, and the Swedish article also seems to use a Swedish translation of the full name. --Relisted.
