According to http://www.raahe.fi/ystavyyskaupungit, the Norwegian twin city is not Bergen but Mo i Rana. That link is in Finnish, I could not find English page from their site. 82.141.95.20 (talk) 17:19, 24 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Raahe's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "population_count":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 01:53, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There reads: "it is one of 10 historic wooden towns (or town centers) remaining in Finland. Examples of other Finnish historic wooden towns are Kaskinen (Kaskö), Old Rauma, Porvoo (Borgå), Jakobstad (Pietarsaari), and Vaasa (Vasa)."

So, what are the other four? I searched a bit, and some of those might be Kokkola (Karleby) and Loviisa. Then there were also suggestions like Helsinki, Turku, Tampere, Oulu and Pori. But I think those do not have wooden town centers, though some could be former town centers. 86.115.109.159 (talk) 03:36, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
