@Benwing I reckon language names, demonyms (nationalities) should be common nouns, not proper nouns in Arabic. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:01, 12 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

I'm going by the fact that language names are specified as proper nouns in English. Demonyms should be common nouns but that might be different. Benwing (talk) 23:07, 12 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
I think language names should be treated as common nouns, like in most languages. English and a small number of others are exceptions. Same with month, weekday names, no need to follow English on this. Language names don't have to be preceded by ال, colloquially - just adjectives are language names. --Anatoli T.

If you wish, go ahead and change it. Benwing (talk) 03:22, 13 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
That was a suggestion only for a general approach to languages. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 03:52, 13 October 2014 (UTC)Reply
