Northern Okinawan language[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article is a blatant content fork of Kunigami language. Nanshu has renamed a language to fit his agenda, which is to reclassify the Northern Ryūkyūan languages. This article is a copy-and-paste of Kunigami language, only changing the lead and infobox and adding a section to better fit his newly created language family. In his added section, he cut-and-pasted the first paragraph from Amami–Okinawan languages#Subgroups (which he did on multiple other articles as well[1][2][3]). He has taken sources which label Kunigami language as a "dialect" of Japanese and synthesized them to create this new language. This reclassification and renaming is all based off of fringe theories and his own personal research. Therefore, I am nominating this article for deletion based off of WP:POVFORK, WP:NOR, WP:SYNTH, and WP:UNDUE.
