Even in my proposal we should use 'Arch GNU/Linux' or 'Arch (the GNU/Linux distribution)' as the former Arch operating system name in Parabola project, not just our Social Contract. 'Arch Linux' is a misnomer, because the system is GNU/Linux and Nomenclature page [0] needs expansion to explain that we will use the correct name 'Arch GNU/Linux' or 'Arch (the GNU/Linux distribution)' because we are giving this kind of respect to the GNU Project. In FSDG [1], specifically in "Please Avoid Repeating Propaganda and Confusion" says about list of words to avoid, in that list explains about Linux system as word to avoid [2] Parabola is a endorsed distro by FSF and it should avoid propaganda and confusion, even if Parabola talks about another distros (eg. Arch, Ubuntu, Suse, etc) inside the project.
