No. Its rules must be obeyed only for words of that language. For words from other languages, like names of people, places etc. rules of source language must be obeyed.
And who are you to dictate what the naming conventions on the English Wikipedia should be?
When words from other languages are used in any language that language tends to modify those words so that they are pronounceable and usable by people who speak that language. In English this is called Anglicisation and in Polish it is called Polonisation (which has already been pointed out to you).
All languages pick up and modify words from other languages. When these languages do this the words are no longer foreign, but they are now part of a new language. Words are merely used to name things and different languages have different words for things.
