::::You cannot be ignorant of the fact that after the Winter War (1939-1940) and finally the Continuation War (1941-1944), the ''local population of Leipäsuo'' in the Leningrad region has been Russian, when the Finnish population had to move behind Finland's new eastern border: [[en: Evacuation of Finnish Karelia]] / [[ru: Эвакуация населения Финской Карелии]].

:::::The sign is not in ''English'' for the simple reason that the spelling does not match any [[romanization of Russian|romanization/transliteration systems of Russian used in English]]. If other signs in the area are "in English", it simply shows that whoever made the signs was inconsistent. Note I'm saying "inconsistent" and not "wrong", because what they are doing may very well make perfect sense in the context the signs are used. English Wikipedia, however, operates in a completely different context, and whether you agree or disagree with the exact structure of [[WP:RUS]], there is a strong consensus that at least ''some'' of the many existing romanization systems should be used for Russian names of places which do not have a [[WP:COMMONNAME]]. None of those systems will give you "Leipäsuo" you want.—[[User:Ezhiki|Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky)]] • ([[User talk:Ezhiki|yo?]]); <span class="nowrap">October 4, 2023</span>; 22:41 (UTC) 22:41, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
