[edit] Markku Award?

"Markku of the Year, 2002. The award is given by an association of people named Markku." This seems especially bogus. Based on the 1 seemingly "official" reference I can find I think it is hardly notable enough to warrant inclusion. --Bdoserror 05:03, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

It's not bogus, but it's not a particularly significant piece of information, either. Markku association exists and it has awarded the title, but the association is small and not well-known. Some major Finnish newspapers have mentioned the nomination, at least Turun Sanomat. BTW Wikipedia: Notability covers only permissible topic of an article (in this case, that Uusipaavalniemi is a notable enough person to warrant an article), and not content. Wikipedia: Trivia is the correct guideline for this kinds of cases. IMO the award needs not to be mentioned in the article.Punainen Nörtti 09:58, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
