Merge proposal: Finnish printing company Kirjapaino Erkki Kuronen

Just stumbled across these and thought a thread was in order.

Kirjapaino Erkki Kuronen - 138 releases
Proposing to merge Kirjapaino E. Kuronen
Should we merge Kirjapaino Erkki Kuronen Oy. - 4 releases
This is a finnish legal ending so keep separate? If separate, do we keep the current profile or make a new profile named "Kirjapaino Erkki Kuronen Oy", i.e. without the full stop.

Kirjapaino E. Kuronen Ky - 231 releases
According to Google AI: In Finnish, "KY" is an abbreviation for Kommandiittiyhtiö, which translates to "limited partnership" or "limited liability partnership". It indicates a business structure where there are two types of partners: general (active) partners and silent partners. The KY ending is a common way to refer to this type of business entity in Finnish.
Guess we keep this separate from Kirjapaino Erkki Kuronen Oy.?

Thanks for ing the discussion!

If going with the standard Discogs approach, +1 merging the variations without any company suffix to Kirjapaino E. Kuronen.

Since Oy and Ky are different company types, those ones should remain separate. +1 for removing the period from the "Oy." entry.

Tbh, I wish we could merge them all, because in the end, they all refer to the same entity. But that is a bigger discussion.

Bumping for more input

+1 to merging in the direction proposed.
