Kautla massacre (Estonian: Kautla veretöö) is better known as Battle of Kautla (see et:Kautla lahing), also in English ("In a series of engagements on 31 July and 1 August, known as the battle of Kautla, they repelled the enemy, which enabled the primary forces of the camp to break the siege." Arvydas Anušauskas, The Anti-Soviet resistance in the Baltic States, University of Michigan, 1999. I propose moving of the article to Battle of Kautla, per WP:COMMONNAME. --Sander Säde 07:51, 4 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

I agree with the name change.
It seems that the phrase "Kautla veresaun" is only used in Wikipedia clones. I could not find any use on .ee sites. Unless you can provide some reference, it is a neologism and should be removed.

Petri, it seems you forgot that same as in Finnish, Estonian language has inflection of nouns, which makes regular Googling rather inefficient. You could have just looked at the references, though - even Mart Laar uses Kautla veresaunast.

Could you please explain your {{POV}} tag on the talk page, as it is required even by the template itself? Templating without explanation is just disruption, in my opinion.
