The name
I changed the Swedish name of the statue. I found no reliable sources, but
"När vänskapsbanden knytes" is the name used in Swedish Wikipedia. The name in the Finnish source, "När vänskapsförbindelserna knyts" sounds like a clumsy translation (perhaps invented ad hoc while writing the page, not doing research about the original names). The English name on the page, "Friendship Sealed" is not used in the article. --

According to the article, the statue was originally intended to be only placed in Gothenburg. I presume that the original name is in Swedish – shouldn't the article be titled with that name? Another option would be having a separate article for the Swedish statue but that would not make sense I think. --
