Berber flag → Amazigh Flag – All occurences of "Berber" to mean "Amazigh" should be replaced by the latter because the former is considered a derogatory term by most Amazigh people. In fact, Amazigh people never make use of the term "Berber" in any context whatsoever, always using "Amazigh" instead. 105.153.193.15 (talk) 18:11, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- Comment If this concern about the term "Berber" is valid, it needs to be discussed at a much higher level than in the context of a single article about the flag. I think Wikipedia:WikiProject Berbers would be the right place to raise this (and, right off the bat, you'd have to take issue with the name of that WikiProject).

- I don't think that this is a good choice. WikiProject Berbers is an inactive wikiProject and over 90% of its members are inactive (exept user:soupforone and user:Jroo222 and me ). So I think that We have to discuss this thing here. --Aṭlas (talk) 21:50, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- Well, that project may be inactive, but that doesn't mean a single article on the flag is a useful place to hold a discussion that has an impact throughout the entirety of Berber-related articles. I oppose a move of this article that doesn't reflect a consensus regarding the use of the term "Berber" in general. Largoplazo (talk) 22:24, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- I also oppose. This page should be kept as it is.--Aṭlas (talk) 22:57, 6 November 2016 (UTC)
- Strong Oppose, Wikipedia is WP:NOTCENSORED. if the majority of sources refer to this as 'Berber' then Berber is what we should use, per WP:COMMONNAME. InsertCleverPhraseHere 02:08, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- Strong oppose per above. ONR (talk) 02:37, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
- oppose, per above this page should be kept as it is. Aṭlas (talk) 20:23, 8 November 2016 (UTC)
