            Bug ID: 69477
           Summary: Bad language name for 'rup' (Aromanian)
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

''Armãneashce'', the current language name used by Mediawiki doesn't appear to
me to have been chosen very wisely.

The founder of the Aromanian Wikipedia, back in 2004, was from an area (Bitola)
where, under the influence of the Slavic languages of the area, the Aromanian
subdialect is characterized by a few regional phoneticisms.

Hence the -șc/-shc pronunciation, instead of the established -șt/-sht, spread
the majority of Aromanian subdialects. My suggestion therefore would be to
change the language name from ''Armãneashce'' to ''Armâneaști'' or
''Armâneascâ''.

Thank you,
