> Re Papiamentu and Sranan Tongo (NOT "Surinamese")
Sranan means Surinamese
Tongo means Tongue
Surinamese is a perfectly acceptable name to use for the language in
English. A name any Sranan speaker would agree to. As they would agree
to the name of Surinaams in Dutch.
And yes remember the earlier conversation. I lived in the country and
learnt the lingo. It is rusty I admit though.

Who decides if wikipedias get created? You? It sometimes seems like it.
