Article name

This article should be named the Battle of Sweaborg, being the prevelent English name at the time. The name Suomenlinna wasn't used until after Finnish independence in 1918. The prevelent Finnish name at the time was Viaporg. In line with other articles associated with places in Finland should adopt the practice of giving the name in both official languages e.g. "The Battle of Sweaborg occured in Viapori (Finnish) or Sveabog (Swedish)..." 148.64.24.212 (talk) 13:35, 30 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Suomenlinna in 1855 is a kind of alternative history Lapchenko (talk) 11:19, 6 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
