Hoi,
You find "Italiano" not "italiano" in the interwiki links. That is
different. If you are in a primary school in Italy, your teacher will
make you learn the difference :) .
Thanks,
Gerard
Hi as well,
And where do you see the problem? I don't think this ought to be
changed, as capitalized beginnings is one usual way of doing lists. If
everything is kept with the first letter capitalized, then I don't see
any problems. And I doubt that any Italian, Frenchman, etc. would
either. ;)
Greetings,

Hoi,
Capitalising beginnings is a "usual" way of doing lists. But here we do
not have an ordinary list, this is a list where the intention is to have
the language written as it is written in that language. We call my
mother tongue "Nederlands" and not "Dutch" as a result. We have
Arabic
Japanese Korean in their own script. All things that are NOT usual in a
list, stating that something is usually done in a certain way may be
true in an English language environment, but does not need to be the
done thing for this particular list.
When people ask what language I speak I say "ik ben Nederlands talig"
Meaning "I use the Nederlandse language" I do not say "Ik spreek
Nederlands" or "I speak Nederlands" my language is also spoken outside
the Netherlands. So I do doubt that there are no people who think this
policy is wrong; when I raised it on IRC someone said "I have always
been wondering about that for the last three years". She was French. so
maybe you find no Frenchman but it was no trouble at all to find a
française to wonder about the current practise.
Thanks,
GerardM.
