A Stubb stub? AnonMoos 02:10, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Foreign minister of Valtio

This exalted personage is said to be the Foreign Minister of Valtio, according to the Valtio article. This is the reason for the addition of the Category:Micronational leaders, and the {{WikiProject Micronations}} banner. The more actively involved members of the latter project will probably be able to verify that status shortly. John Carter 21:20, 2 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He does not speak Esperanto

He does not speak Esperanto [1]. I will delete that information in the article. Calle Widmann (talk) 12:31, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New prime minister

This guy will be the new prime minister of Finland. Someone with time should probably write about it. --Lead holder (talk) 12:01, 14 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation of surname

I saw this video which features an American being unsure as to how to pronounce Stubb's surname. I believe it would be beneficial to have an a IPA and/or a phonetic spelling at the start of the article. Anyone here up for doing it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bearsca (talk • contribs) 21:03, 1 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is an IPA pronunciation in the article: Finland Swedish pronunciation: [kai jœːran aleksˈandær stʉbː]. JIP | Talk 23:14, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lead too long

Hi all, I just added a tag suggesting that the article's lead might be too long. It's also largely unreferenced, although it's pretty clear that references do exist -- just later in the article. I'm uncomfortable editing this article as it's about a notable politician involved in very recent events and it's an area where I'm unfamiliar, so I'm hoping others will be able to jump in and help. — Silvestertaylor (talk) 19:37, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The text says that he (Stubb) *will* become president on March 1st 2024. Correct!

But his wife is only *expected* to become the first First Lady of Finland of foreign origin. Surely that also should be *will* become..... 82.181.22.118 (talk) 12:17, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Second finnish-speaking president

The statement in the end of the first paragraph is incorrect: At least Pehr Evind Svinhufvud was also swedish-speaking, Lauri Kristian Relander was at least born to a swedish-speaking family (though he later changed his first given name to a finnish version). I suggest to correct this part. 2A02:8108:1380:6C34:ED2A:B633:C7A9:8DC7 (talk) 16:46, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Translated from the article's source:^[1]

"In the childhood home of Relander, the language spoken was Finnish. ... Svinhufvud had roots in "Rikssvenska" heritage, but from childhood, he considered himself Finnish-speaking. ... So, both Relander and Svinhufvud were bilingual. However, in terms of identity, they cannot be classified as Swedish-speaking Finns. ... there has been only one Swedish-speaking Finnish president so far: Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim."
