[edit] City rivalry in Finland

This article is very well written, but I don't think it merits a place on Wikipedia. It's mostly OR/speculation, and it's pretty generic as well, since there's bound to be some small-scale 'rivalry' between any cities that are close to one another. (And there is a big information technology industry in Turku too...!) It might be worth a brief mention in Ice hockey in Finland (if that article existed), but I'm afraid the rest of it is no good.

• Keep but this needs references badly--MONGO 04:38, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Blatant Delete. Just because it's Finnish doesn't mean it's exempt from no original research, bordering on an attack page with statements like "Helsinkians view Turkuans as naïve and simple-minded". BJAODN the last paragraph, though. --Last Malthusian 15:43, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Keep and supply references. -- MisterHand 17:37, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete if no more research is made and such blatant NPOV material is not removed. — The Hooded Man ♃♂ 22:29, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
• Delete unsourced, original research, POV, generic and unencyclopaedic. But funny. Just zis  Guy, you know? ^[T]/_[C] AfD? 23:19, 21 December 2005 (UTC)
