[edit]In Estonian, it is called Russalka, with two S in the middle. Therefore I suggest moving it to Russalka Memorial. H2ppyme (talk) 20:36, 2 April 2009 (UTC)
- I based the article name on Russian monitor Rusalka, where we consistently write it with one "s". ›mysid (☎∆✎) 07:52, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, I understand that very well, but shouldn't it be named how it is in Estonian?H2ppyme (talk) 11:56, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure. For example, Tallinna Niguliste kirik is called St. Nicholas' Church, Tallinn in the English Wikipedia. ›mysid (☎∆✎) 19:02, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, but this seems to be a widely accepted English name for the church, while Russalka/Rusalka isn't as famous and the name is the same, only with one letter difference. Also, the monument isn't so well known in other countries and has little to do with Russia, only that the ship was of the Russian Navy. Therefore I think the name should be as it is in Estonian, no big deal to change it. H2ppyme (talk) 18:55, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- I guess you are right. I've moved the article. ›mysid (☎∆✎) 20:17, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
