- The article lists number of speakers in Europe. America is not in Europe. Titus Gold (talk) 14:34, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
- @Titus Gold, hmn tbh, I've now moved this article to the current name List of languages by number of speakers in Europe, putting the locator at the end, in light of the comment above as in the end they remain European languages even if spoken outside Europe and to imply where this is restricted to, but now thinking about it, it gives the impression immigrant languages should now be included. Be free to revert my move, but both names are not exactly clear, but then adding both, as List of European languages by number of speakers in Europe just seems odd, although "European" could be changed for "native", if all languages can be classed as that?

- Option 1: List of European languages by number of native speakers
- Option 2: List of European languages by number of speakers in Europe
- Option 3: Add a column to the table on speakers worldwide with the title List of European languages by number of speakers
- I would lean towards Option 1 for the moment but in the future could add worldwide figures and move to option 3. Option 3 would be the ideal perhaps. Titus Gold (talk) 00:45, 16 April 2023 (UTC)
- As I have no idea of an alternative, and 2 is just repetitive although gives more clarity, then your plan seems the best way forward, so yes option 1 for now, and a later column for the Americans Thanks! DankJae 01:13, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

How come this page doesn't include Armenian or Georgian?
editBoth these countries are 100% located in Europe, hence their membership of the Council of Europe Callisto the bear (talk) 14:05, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
