I see that someone updated the text for the Luxembourg-sculptor-stub template to read Luxembourgish instead of Luxembourgian. A review of the Luxembourg article indicates no use of Luxembourgian, but Luxembourgish is used both for the language, and for adjectives. Propose the following category name changes: Dawynn (talk) 12:47, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Oppose. Luxembourgish can refer both to the country and to the language; Luxembourgian can only refer to the country, which is what is intended here. I don't see why we should move from precise language to ambiguous language. If anything, then we should move, for all such categories, to the scheme "Stubs of building and structures in Luxembourg", "Stubs of people in Luxembourg", etc. After all, the assumption that for every country there is a corresponding adjective is incorrect, and when there is one it sometimes has problems which the country name itself does not have (other examples being American for the US or Nigerian for both Niger and Nigeria).

 * Oppose - there are lots of "Luxembourgian" categories (only 7 of which are stub categories); and only 2 "Luxembourgish", Luxembourgish-language films and Luxembourgish language, and ion both cases "Luxembourgish" refers to the language. I'd be willing to reconsider if you could get several of these "Luxembourgian" permcats renamed at CFD, but doubt that you would find support for that. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 15:08, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
