Aciram, thank you for creating the article, I found it via the Svenskt kvinnobiografiskt lexikon redlist. Two points

I think that the article should be at Valborg Innamaa as according to A Lahtinen "Valborg was most likely part of the Swedish speaking merchant group and all the sources are written in Swedish".^[1]
I want to add some more references and find it easier to use templates. Would you mind if I changed the Kansallisbiografia reference to cite encyclopedia? I think that would make it easier for non Finnish speaking readers to understand the citation information.

I don't own the article, but I have no objection on you re-formatting the same reference. --Aciram (talk) 11:04, 3 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Aciram, thank you for your quick reply. I understand that changing citation styles should generally be avoided, hence the question. There was only one existing citation in the article, so I don't think it will do any harm in this case. TSventon (talk) 11:24, 3 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

The following is a closed 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 after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Closed with a weak consensus - if further evidence is brought for the other title, another discussion probably wouldn't hurt anything. (closed by non-admin page mover) ASUKITE 15:14, 13 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Valpuri Innamaa → Valborg Innamaa – article should be at Valborg Innamaa as according to A Lahtinen "Valborg was most likely part of the Swedish speaking merchant group and all the sources are written in Swedish". Exxisting title is based on the National Biography of Finland and thus in Finnish. TSventon (talk) 17:52, 3 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Comment: Sources use both names. Worthwhile to list a discussion. Anarchyte (talk) 08:01, 6 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
Weak support move What the historical primary sources call her is not really important. Rather, we need to check what name the modern (English-language) sourcing uses for her (WP:COMMONNAME). Along those lines, searching Google Scholar for both Valborg Innamaa and Valpuri Innamaa shows rather few sources for both, but it appears that the majority of English language sourcing uses Valborg Innamaa. That said, the sample size is so small that I'm not exactly strongly opposed to the current title either. -Ljleppan (talk) 07:29, 7 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
