Article name[edit]

At the moment this article is (obviously) named Effoa, which I originally chose as it's the name I had heard this company most commonly being referred to as in Finland. However, of the 107 years that the company was in existance it was known under the name "Effoa" for only 14 years; during the vast majority of it's existance it was known as Finland Steamship Company (which is actually a slight mistranslation of the original Swedish-language name, but that's besides the point). Finland Steamship Company also seems to be the form commonly used in most English-language material outside Wikipedia. Therefore it is now my belief that the article should be renamed to better reflect common usage. In case someone might oppose the move I thought it better to ask opinions first. — Kjet (talk · contribs) 18:47, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
