by the Finland-Swedish author Tove Jansson – here, Finland-Swedish is an article about a variety of the Swedish language, and not a group of people. Would Swedish-speaking population of Finland be a more appropriate link target? Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 02:37, 19 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
dealing indirectly with the theme of death – I wonder if there's a word better than indirectly to use here, or a qualifier we can add. It could be read to imply that death is a secondary theme, which would disagree with Rayner's view that the underlying theme is death. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 02:37, 19 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
In the latest reading, – MOS:RELTIME, probably a different way to introduce this. Vermont (🐿️—🏳️‍🌈) 02:37, 19 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
