== Merge with [[Easter witch]] ==

I propose merging with [[easter witch]]. The different histories presented here need to be reconciled. I think the title of a merged article should be "easter witch" because it is both the Swedish name and the best name in English.

:Not sure this is necessary. The article [https://wiki.aineetonkulttuuriperinto.fi/wiki/The_Orthodox_and_Karelian_tradition_of_virpominen The Orthodox and Karelian tradition of virpominen] and the fiwiki version of this article suggest that a separate article about ''Virvonta'' can be written without too much overlap with [[easter witch]]. For [[Easter witch]], here are some references about the easter witch traditions in Finland: [https://uppslagsverket.fi/sv/sok/view-170045-Paask Uppslagsverket Finland: påsk] and [https://www.sls.fi/publications/stora-finlandssvenska-festboken/ Stora Finlandsvenska festboken] (open access).

::Ok. Let's keep an eye on this then and make sure both articles link to each other. Thanks for your reply. [[User:DIYeditor|—DIYeditor]] ([[User talk:DIYeditor|talk]]) 21:13, 28 February 2026 (UTC)
