The alternate version of Bernhard Crusell's name is taken from the bibliography in the Crusell article in New Grove 2, a credible source of information. For this reason, I am restoring the alternate name. I'm not sure he ever used it and unsure what language the alternate name is, so considering that, and your comment, I'm rewording the footnote with some qualifiers. Please take a look and please discuss here if you disagree with the new version. I do think it is important to include in the article that the different name has been used. I also found the book from the Grove bibliography listed in WorldCat and added two links. Anyway, thanks for your help. -- Robert.Allen ( talk) 17:55, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
Hi there! I was wondering why you had to remove ALL the changes I made to the article Tarja Halonen? You said that quote "the infobox has become a mess and the other changes are questionable". What is questionable about changing few pictures to more recent ones and replacing a link to a website of Forbes magazine from the 2009 version to 2010 version? In the case of the infobox I think it got much more informative, as it had all the information about Halonen's previous commitments. That has been standard in Wikipedias infoboxes for world leaders (see f.e. Angela Merkel, Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin etc etc). I dont appreciate you saying that the work that I had been doing for quite some time is a "mess", and I would expect a nicer tone in a site where we as a community try to make these articles better.

Hello, until a consensus is reached with the RfC, which is still ongoing, you should not change the link to your preference. The RfC has not been closed and is still open for more input. TylerBurden ( talk) 15:45, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
