2009 Beer parlour discussion
Here is a verbatim copy of a October 2009 discussion on the name 'Old Provençal' vs. 'Old Occitan' which ended with no change to the name. Renard Migrant (talk) 11:37, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

According to Wikipedia, Old Provençal is the "former" name for Old Occitan. Given how little this template is used, it would be pretty simple to rename it and all the pages associated. What are our criteria in such cases? Mglovesfun (talk) 22:33, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
 * It's usually on a case-by-case basis. For this case, we prefer the name Occitan over Provençal, so I would say the same applies for the "Old" version of the language as well. --EncycloPetey 02:07, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Well Occitan and Provençal have different ISO 639 codes (oc and prv). However, both Google and Google Books say that Old Provençal is the more common name, although not by a wide margin. I'm kinda on the fence now. Ethnologue might help. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:14, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Okay yeah, sil.org says both, so Wikipedia (according to sil) is wrong. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:20, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
