5 centres officially ... and tehre were mentioned 3 by name. what are the other two, and do they really need a separate page each..?
- More than five these days. I put the names up and wannabe-links to each. Not sure if they need separate pages, though, might be best to just move the information to a list on the main Espoo page? // Janka
- Otaniemi already has a separate page but was not mentioned here... Not official division though, but part of "greater Tapiola", so not sure how to link here. // User:Spoo

[edit] The section "Famous people from Espoo"
I am removing the section "Famous people from Espoo" as I think most of the people listed are only of interest to a very restricted audience and not really relevant to an article on the city. Besides, the list is redundant with Category:People from Espoo. Some related discussion is at Talk:Helsinki#Notable natives --KFP (talk | contribs) 12:36, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] About major districts of Espoo
I would propose to add Suvikumpu (Solhöjden) to Suur-Tapiola. Tellervo 07:35, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

You have a very good basketball club-Honka and beautifull girls.All the best!
[edit] The Los Angeles of Finland?
The text "This decentralised nature has led to Espoo being jocularly called "Finland's only highway with city privileges". Another soubriquet is "Los Angeles of Finland", meaning it has no city center but a number of local centers." keeps getting reinserted to the article, I see. Can someone explain why it is? There are no sources for this statement and it doesn't seem worthy of mention. Opinions? --KFP (talk | contribs) 20:33, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Honka logo.gif
Image:Honka logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

If anyone has ever seen Metalocalypse you will perhaps know that Espoo is the setting for the 1st season episode known as Dethtroll. It can be found here [1]. The episode's choice of setting was more than likely made due to the fact that Children of Bodom are from here, but as they are not mentioned in the episode, while Espoo is, I find it reasonable that this information be written into this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.23.56.4 (talk) 19:58, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
