Checking the history of that page shows it was recently created. Not sure
how the Finns do this but like the Dutch they probably have a bot that
creates Wikidata items after a month or so has passed (this avoids creating
items for things that get deleted through the "speedy delete" process). You
can create the item yourself, or wait another month I guess.
