An entry from Wilderness hut appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 8 June, 2006. |  |
"Autiotupa" is a term and not a name. Is there an English translation for the title, then? JIP | Talk 13:31, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Google found "wilderness cottage", "solitary cabin", "empty hut", "abandoned hut". It doesn't seem like any of them would refer to this same thing, though, and they're not used that much. –Mysid(t) 13:58, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- Found "wilderness hut", used by e.g. Metsähallitus on its Outdoors.fi site, and it seems so abundant I'll rename the article. Thanks for the suggestion. –Mysid(t) 07:12, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Only in Finland?
"As such, the tradition is almost solely found in Finland, and to some extent in Sweden and Norway, too." I don't know how you define 'hut' exactly, but there are very similar wilderness cabins that operate under very similar rules in many European mountain ranges (eg Romania). Where does this claim come from?--Zambaccian 21:26, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
