Your recent edits
Hello. Don't edit articles about things that you obviously know nothing about: Finland was part of Sweden during the time the Vasa-dynasty ruled the country, and Finns are not a Germanic people, and so on... - Tom &#124; Thomas.W talk 18:56, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
 * You seem to be confusing ethnicity with nationality, Finns as a nationality have existed only since 1917, but Finns as an ethnicity have existed for at least 2,000 years, the name Finland has been used for what is today the country of Finland since long before Finland gained independence, and Finns are not a Germanic people but a Uralic people, since it's based on language: Germanic peoples speak a Germanic language (such as Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Dutch, German and English), Uralic peoples speak a Uralic language (such as Finnish, Estonian and Hungarian) and Slavic peoples speak a Slavic language (such as Russian, Polish and Serbian). Things you need to know before being able to edit constructively here. - Tom &#124; Thomas.W talk 19:21, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Your edits on Swedes
Hello. I have reverted your edits since they were clearly unhelpful, the Swedish minorities in Finland and Estonia are listed first since they're natively Swedish speaking minorities that have lived there since at least the Viking age, not descendants of relatively recent emigrants or recent emigrants themselves, and thus shouldn't be mixed with the others. - Tom &#124; Thomas.W talk 15:23, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
